| The most frequently asked question, not surprisingly, is: How much will this cost? You can estimate the price easily, because precious metal is sold by weight. Start with the example prices for 6mm & 4mm x 1.5mm rings: $2350 - 18k Gold based on a gold market of $1656 $2600 - 22k Gold based on a gold market of $1656 $1825 - Palladium based on a palladium market of $656 $3125 - Platinum based on a platinum market of $1523 Subtract the workshop fee of $1100 for gold, $1250 for platinum. Example: $3125 total fee - $1250 workshop fee = $1875 precious metal cost Adjust for today's metal market prices. (Google: "platinum prices" etc. for market) Divide the price by the old precious metal price, then multiply by the new price. For example, if today's price of platinum were $1800/oz: $1875 old mtl price / $1523 old mkt = 1.231 * $1800 new mkt = $2216 new mtl price Adjust for the width of your rings. Let's say you want two 6mm bands. Add the widths and you have a total of 12mm. My examples have a total width of 10mm. Divide the price by 10 and multiply by 12. $2216 / 10mm total width = $221.60/mm * 12mm new width = $2659 Adjust for your ring size: For women sizes 5 1/2 and smaller, subtract 5%. For men size 8 and smaller, subtract 5%. For women size 8 1/2 and men size is 11 or more, add 5%. $2659 * 95% = $2526 is your new price of metal. This includes sales tax. Add back the workshop fee: $2526 + $1250 = $3776 This is how to estimate the price of your rings. A few useful tips: - When you ask for a quote, I basically go through all the above steps. I've done it thousands of times, so I can do it quickly. I've done it thousands of times, so please don't ask me to do it twice. - Precious metal prices change daily. Your price is based on the price the day that your metal is shipped to me.
