Another important point to be aware of is the factor of cut-off carat weights. These are also known as 'expense points' and having familiarity with them can not only save you money, but will also allow you to either reach or come close to the carat weight that you desire. Expense points refer to cut off points in carat weight where the cost can rise or decline exponentially. These points are at certain carat weights, such as the following: .50, .75, .90, 1, 1.5, 2 and so on. By staying just below these points, you can have a diamond that is negligibly less in weight, but notably less in expense. What this means is quite simple. If you are looking for a one-carat diamond, rather than choosing a diamond of one-carat or slightly larger choose a diamond that falls just below one carat, such as a .95 diamond. There will be no identifiable difference, especially once the diamond is set, and you could save a large amount of money.
