On average, a one-carat diamond ring ranges from as low as $2,500 to as high as $18,000, depending on the stone's cut, clarity, color, and carat weight. A 2-carat diamond ring typically costs between $8,400 and $58,000, while a 3-carat diamond ring runs between $21,000 and $153,000.

The price of diamonds fluctuates in the economy just like any other high-end good. Sometimes diamonds increase in value, while other times they decrease. Regardless, pre-owned diamonds sell for slightly less than their original prices. In most cases, a diamond has a resale value of 20-60% of the original price paid.
