Hey guys, so I've been reading that the jewelry stores in St. Martin are super popular because of their prices. I was just curious as to what kind of discounts we are talking about? I would LOVE to buy an engagement ring for my beau, so I'm just curious how much cheaper it is compared to a US brick and mortar or website. Thanks for any info you have! Do your homework at home to make sure you are making a fair comparison. A "discount" can be deceiving as some will advertise 80% or more, BUT 80% of WHAT? If it is a greatly inflated list price then the discount will appear to be huge. Look at the bottom line of a comparable item for a fair comparison. Most list or suggested retail prices are greatly inflated, both on the island and in the US. Having said this, most on here have their favorite store or salesperson. We like Caribbean Gems and feel like we have been treated well there but we also do our homework prior to any purchase. Good luck.
J.D.
