Question about Wholesale Diamond Prices
I keep hearing about Diamond Wholesale Pricelist and what a Diamond is worth wholesale. My question is what is the difference in a wholesale price and a retail price? Also is there anywhere on the internet to find the wholesale price on a Diamond that I am considering?

Realistically, wholesale is the price the guy paid who wants to sell you the diamond. Since you are an “end user” the price you agree to pay is “retail”.
There is no one stop, wholesale lists for diamonds. Pricescope is by far the best search for this I have seen to date and gets you within a few percentage points of dealer wholesale COST. You can’t perfect it a lot better as not every stone is identical regardless of parameters.
