Are wedding bands (rings) supposed to cost this much?
For platinum regular wedding bands like over $1,000 each. And for a matching diamond - they range like from $1,300-3,000. Is this what most people pay. We only went to one store so far. thanks for your input

is that retail?
If you can make it into the city, you'll find much better deals. My friend just bought a plain platinum band for her FH, and it was $475.

I went looking for bands, and the mens bands are reasonable. The diamond bands I looked at ranged from $850 to custom-made $3000, that's without any bargaining though

I know that when FH & I went to our friend of the family for our rings..he told us that plantinum is much more expensive. A white gold simple band would be about $300 where a platnium band would be about a $1000. My diamond band would be platnium with diamonds going halfway around and that is going to be about $1200. It really depends on what size diamonds you get and what metal you get. I would look around though.

Im in the same search as you. I'm looking for a platinum diamond channel set ring either 1/2 way or 3/4 and Im getting quotes of 1200-1900. So your prices sound about right.

I don't know about the diamond bands, but a plain platinum band for me cost us $300 or $350.

that seems a lot to me. My band is 3mm platinum and plain and it was $550 at fortunoffs (with the 10% bridal discount).

Isn't 3mm very small?
We almost bought our wedding rings at Fortunoff's until we found out the quality of the diamond was not so good.

for a woman's band that is large. the ring size is 6 & 1/2 in circumferance. I do not have any diamonds in my wedding band becuase that is traditional for us.
