Locating the Right Diamond

If the customer has given you the go-ahead on searching for a diamond to satisfy their needs, then you can proceed to do so. When contacting diamond dealers, don't take any short cuts. The idea is to find the right stone without any hidden surprises. This may take a lot of effort so that's why qualifying your customer is so important. This saves shipping charges and keeps your suppliers happy by sending them checks instead of returning unsold merchandise.
