在著名的钻石价格论坛PRICESCOPE上看到的：
I just got a call from a Tiffany and Co sales
rep that they reduced their prices on 1 ct diamonds (give or take) by
about 15% within the past two weeks. Their baseline started at
$10,300ish before, but now it’s down to $8,500. Has anyone else seen
major reductions from other retailers? They’re still overpriced
relative to online retailers, but they are a lot closer now. These are
strange times we are living in and I’m wondering if it would be prudent
to hold off on buying an engagement ring until after Christmas.
Thoughts?
1克拉的钻石从10300美元下调至8500美元，不过是两周时间。看来，一旦经济不景气，钻石一样不保值。
