Great video man. Can't wait for the video on Chains/Pendants and maybe even watches down the line. You have the best jewelry business content on UA-cam by far 🔥
Damn, all of us Trina be jewelers. Told my homies I’m making jewelry and they’re already trying to buy a chain off me. It’s all about the connections, be cool with the plugs and they’ll want to do business with you
You are simply amazing! Thank you for such straight solid advice. May I please request a matching video on sourcing ready made modern engagement style ring settings? Is there an online supplier of these? I saw your video on how to make it from scratch, and wondered if there’s a ready supplier to go with the diamonds that you’ve just shown us how to buy. Thanks again for your solid gold value. 😊
Lab grown aren't really worth it unless your buying big diamonds like 1 carat solid pieces the smallest lab grown I've found is .3ct each and cost a few hundred for watches and most pendants you'd be using either .01 or .02 which can cost $6-$12 depending on supplier
Thank you for your videos. Starting my own ring business very soon. I do have a question tho. What if I wanted to buy natural stones like black onyx to start off. How do I go about buying those?
Can you recommend a caster and setter in New York. I want to do a diamond Cuban with a flower setting. From my understanding that’s a very hard setting. Also do you know if silver has the same setting price per gram as gold?
Can you please go into how to find diamond pricing? I feel Rapaport is putting up a wall to entry by requiring you to form a business entity before activating membership.
Can you please do a video on taking diamonds that you ordered from Alibaba and take them to two jewelers and have the verified? I just want to see what the conversation is like. Great videos and I sincerely appreciate them!
@@Investors_Consigliere huh? Because if he is already doing this, then why not learn from him? When I am ready to start this on my own, that's when I will do it. Right now, still in learning mode.
Hey, can you do a more in depth vid on diamonds, like I know that the piece goes up the bigger the sz but how do we know exactly how much we should be paying?
Iight so I made the 1st rule mistake and got my diamonds based on the sizes on the 3DM , my ring did shrink a little under 1mm so that means the holes probably shrank as well right , so is there any markets to sell small amounts of loose diamonds if these diamonds are now too big ?
Awesome videos man. Just a quick question, I noticed that some 3d renderings call for some very specific diamond sizing. Like several at 1.3mm, several at 1.7 etc etc. When buying in bulk, do you make bulk orders of all these sizes? Seems like it would add up a lot.
Yes but alot of jewelers make multiple of the same piece for customers to buy not every piece is custom with someone's exact design sort of like when u go to a helzberg diamonds they have multiple of the same rings etc
New fear unlocked thanks 👍 but really you could just take the piece to another jewelry store and have them inspect it. I doubt this will ever happen tho
How much diamonds does it take to fully ice out a watch? So how much diamonds did you end up getting total for $565 at the end? How can we measure carots?
Do you have any program where we can talk to you directly about the jewelry business? Eventually I want to get into my own designs and become an actual jewelry but I’d like to start out this way for sure!
hi there, thanks for the video, very beneficial. just a quesiton, did you acturally bought of this supplier that u used as an example on alibaba? i am talking about ' YANA GEM AND JEWELL' thanks in advance
Great videos thanks just wondering Does it matter if the diamonds don’t come with a GIA cert ? And what is the best way to price all gold jewellery for sale and diamond jewellery for sale please thanks again
Hey man, great informative vid! I just experimented with alibaba and CGtrader to see how much making a piece would cost. Just one question- why should we avoid buying from China? Keep up the good work!
Great videos they are very helpful but one question When you send the money to the dealer is there any confirmation or verification the dealer is sending the diamonds
Another great video! And...another question from me...do you continue to negotiate on the second deal? It seems the seller is expecting you to pay more next time. Also, how do you feel about lab grown diamonds? I’ve been checking market places and the lab grown diamond jewelry seems to sell well..
Thx Selina! thats all talk. the more you buy from the seller the lower the price should get for future orders. I just think a lot of people who buy jewelry unfortunate won't buy lab stones
Is that so? You should work on that pride, people who have been in the business 20 years will tell you honestly that they still don't know all there is to know.
Hello how are you can you please make a updated video for lose stones, Alibaba doesn’t have everything you say in video anymore, so I’m not sure what is Indian dealers and what is Chinese dealers. I’m afraid I might buy a stone from china and it come back as LG and not Natural.
I'm interested in becoming a jeweler but Im having trouble with a few things and was wondering if you could help me out by emailing me or making a video showing a list of mini daimonds size's along with price and stones per katar
hey brother can you please make a video on how to make cuban link chain by hand? i know that you have made a video already but its using the casting method. the real problem i face is i dont understand the ratio of the thickness of the wire and the mandrel thickness and how to the length of the chain is impacted by the weight. please if you can make it possible it would be great.
Hey, how about buying gold Cuban chain in pawn shop and then making fitting holes and just puting diamonds? What do u think? I know it's couple of hours work but it's still highly profitable.
Hey Slava! Thank you for the info 🤙🏼 I got slightly confused at the end. I’m looking to do a bust down watch. I’m just curious about a ball park figure of how many diamonds it takes and the average cost of the loose diamonds of what a bust down watch would be. Thank you!
@@oscarmottershead8166 it wouldn’t really matter because to cover the watch would still cost around the same cus the weight would be the same. Bigger diamonds less off = smaller diamonds more off, weight and price wise the exact same
Would it be all right to purchase moissanite from China? And if so, would there be any point in trying to negotiate as I would basically be negotiating with a huge lab?
What’s good bro I have a question I have the diamond and the unfinished piece to put the diamond on it do you know where I can ship my piece and diamonds so they could put the diamonds in because where I’m at the jewelry shop are haters to do that because you not buying it from them

Can you recommend a caster and setter in New York. I want to do a diamond Cuban with a flower setting. From my understanding that’s a very hard setting. Also do you know if silver has the same setting price per gram as gold?
Inspired. Thank you for breaking it down in detail. Very interested in starting a business
Thank you I appreciate you watching!
Should make a video of how to buy jars of gold and colors casting grains
Hello thanks so much for the video. How would you order in measurement when ordering single real diamonds or gold for grillz?
How do you buy a large loose stone for a mount you already have. For example a 3 to 4 ct ( 9-10mmx7-8mm)? Thank you so much
We need more bro
more on the way!
@@SlavaTVOfficial I think you are awesome !!
Can you please go into how to find diamond pricing? I feel Rapaport is putting up a wall to entry by requiring you to form a business entity before activating membership.
Very interesting !!
Thanks a lot for this video helps a lot
You're welcome!
you need to make a online course about diamond !!
Can you please do a video on taking diamonds that you ordered from Alibaba and take them to two jewelers and have the verified? I just want to see what the conversation is like. Great videos and I sincerely appreciate them!
Almost a year later and still waiting :(
@@iam1894 waiting to
waiting on it to
How about y'all go to a jeweler and see what the conversation is like.....can't get all the answers on UA-cam somethings you gotta learn on your own
@@Investors_Consigliere huh? Because if he is already doing this, then why not learn from him? When I am ready to start this on my own, that's when I will do it. Right now, still in learning mode.
You the real mvp, you got jewelers punching the air right now lol
Haha thx bro
@@SlavaTVOfficial definitely the GOAT for all these jewelry vids. Can you order rubies the same way ?

Can you please make a video on how to get chains and bracelets? Is there a way to skip the wholesalers and just import as well?
Any suggestions on making sure the diamond setter doesn't switch out your diamonds with lower quality or fake stones?
New fear unlocked thanks 👍 but really you could just take the piece to another jewelry store and have them inspect it. I doubt this will ever happen tho
So besides paying through PayPal, can you pay through a debit card as well? I seen it on the video that that was another option.
How much diamonds does it take to fully ice out a watch? So how much diamonds did you end up getting total for $565 at the end?
How can we measure carots?
Hey Slava thanks again for the walkthrough - what about precious stones besides diamonds? What are the best places to get those
No problem! You can find a supplier for those on alibaba as well. its pretty much the same process
Do you have any program where we can talk to you directly about the jewelry business? Eventually I want to get into my own designs and become an actual jewelry but I’d like to start out this way for sure!
Am a big fan, follow most of the videos especially the jewelry ones. But i would request a special video based on marketing/the selling part.
Thx! I will make a vid on that asap
Online Empires thank you 👊🏼
What size does a patek usually use for the bezel
hi there, thanks for the video, very beneficial. just a quesiton, did you acturally bought of this supplier that u used as an example on alibaba? i am talking about ' YANA GEM AND JEWELL'
thanks in advance
How do you go about finding a stone setter? Please make more videos!
you will find one in the jewelry district
Subbed great video
Did you pay and then they send them or did they send them and then you pay???
Can you tell me a good spot to get natural vs diamond melee in DTLA?
Hey bro do you have any recommendations for jewellery mounting shops ?
I dont live near a diamond district
Why only PayPal? I been looking at the site and nobodies got paypal
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Where do i get different color diamonds? Such as red or green ones to make jewelry with different colors?
Great videos thanks just wondering Does it matter if the diamonds don’t come with a GIA cert ? And what is the best way to price all gold jewellery for sale and diamond jewellery for sale please thanks again
hey small stones don't come with certificates so thats ok
How do the casters know which size stone needed? How do I get this info myself? Is it a machine?
Bro please keep making jewelry videos
Do you know If Denver has a diamond district? I can’t find anything.
I appreciate you
Thank you so much
You're most welcome
bro i love your videos but do you know anybody who makes same quality vid except in london
Hey man, great informative vid! I just experimented with alibaba and CGtrader to see how much making a piece would cost. Just one question- why should we avoid buying from China? Keep up the good work!
hey thx! china is not a supplier of diamonds
@@SlavaTVOfficial hey, I am finding better prices in China, is this likely due to them being blood diamonds? I haven't asked about that.
@@incrementingindependence2899 Blood diamonds have been rare since the 90s, there’s no point worrying about them
Great videos they are very helpful but one question When you send the money to the dealer is there any confirmation or verification the dealer is sending the diamonds
thanks, they will send you a tracking number once the package ships
Another great video! And...another question from me...do you continue to negotiate on the second deal? It seems the seller is expecting you to pay more next time. Also, how do you feel about lab grown diamonds? I’ve been checking market places and the lab grown diamond jewelry seems to sell well..
Thx Selina! thats all talk. the more you buy from the seller the lower the price should get for future orders. I just think a lot of people who buy jewelry unfortunate won't buy lab stones
Do you cast your own jewelry or do you ship it to be casted
It’s crazy how I am only 16 and know all the things you need about gold and diamond
Thats the motive it shows how ahead you are
Same here bro I’m 14
Oh Wow, do tell I'd love to know sheeple.
Is that so? You should work on that pride, people who have been in the business 20 years will tell you honestly that they still don't know all there is to know.
@@Zuurhh bruhh same
Love the content! Do you have any recommendations on where/how to buy gold chains (e.g. d/c rope, franco, etc.) at wholesale?
Thanks!
Very good question👍
thx, they can be purchased wholesale in the district
Online Empires are there any in LA that you recommend? What price over spot would be considered wholesale? Thanks again!
... so if my ring requires 3 diff size stones, do i place 3 different orders or can i specify with the seller my exact needs?
nope, one order and seller will give you 3 sizes

@@oscarmottershead8166 it wouldn’t really matter because to cover the watch would still cost around the same cus the weight would be the same. Bigger diamonds less off = smaller diamonds more off, weight and price wise the exact same
@@daquaviousbingleton9763 but larger diamonds cost much more per carat so the same weight of small diamonds wouldnt cost that weight in large diamonds
Can you compare natural to lab grown diamonds and also when your selling do you you need to specify which is which
you absolutely have to do have to specify if they are natural or lab diamonds
Would it be all right to purchase moissanite from China?
And if so, would there be any point in trying to negotiate as I would basically be negotiating with a huge lab?
PayPal did you use buyers protection or friends and family
Ketankumar Monpara is not on site anymore could you recommend another whole seller please

?
Why avoid Chinese sellers? What if they are verified and accept PayPal?
