Engagement Ring Price Match Policy
Some of the diamonds listed on the website or in your quote may also be available elsewhere, online or in a store. While we do try to already offer you the best possible price, we’re also happy to do our best to accommodate any price differences through our Price Match Policy.
Our price match policy seeks to ensure you always get better value on your full engagement ring price – not just the diamond.
Our policy is to look at the total price – ring setting and the diamond, and we compare the total to a competitor’s offering. We do this because different companies take different approaches to how they price diamonds and ring settings. Often a company can have a lower price on a diamond alone, compared to Taylor & Hart, will then having a much higher price on the ring setting, when compared to a similar Taylor & Hart ring.
Simply let your consultant know the details of the diamond you’ve seen elsewhere (the report number and website), and we’ll come back to you with the best overall engagement ring price we can do. We will take into account the ring you’re considering and check what the competitor’s equivalent or similar ring price is.
Price matching is applicable to natural and lab-grown diamonds engagement rings only and does not apply to loose diamond sales.
This is to ensure complete transparency on price-matching, our price match terms and conditions are outlined below:
Main Terms

- To verify the competing price for a natural diamond, you must supply your consultant with a GIA number and a link to the other website’s offer or a published price offer. To verify the competing price for a lab-grown diamond, you must supply your consultant with an IGI number and a link to the other website’s offer or a published price offer.

- A price match cannot be used in conjunction with any other discounts or promotions.
- Only one engagement ring per customer is eligible for the Price Match Policy.
- Taylor & Hart reserves the right to verify all information regarding the competing offer and to refuse to offer a lower price.
