These summer months are often slow for jewelers. You may benefit from off-season promotions, shorter turnaround times for resizing, and more one-on-one time with experts.
If you are open to lab-grown options, prices have been steadily declining. As of April 2026 , wholesale prices for lab-grown diamonds dropped another 14% , with 3-carat stones seeing the steepest declines.
Shopping during "off-peak" periods can lead to a better overall experience and potentially more flexibility on price.
If you're looking for a specific high-quality diamond, start your research 2–3 months early regardless of the season. This allows you to track prices and ensures you don't lose a unique stone to another buyer during peak sale weeks.
