Suppose they are both 1 carat diamonds - one is artificial and the other is natural? How much is the price difference?

The price of 1 carat diamonds has increased by more than 30,000 yuan

This year, the sales of large diamonds have surged, and carat diamonds weighing more than 1 carat are no longer the "small town" they used to be. "Treasure of Cabinets" has truly become a best-seller. Sales of carat diamonds, which cost as much as 80,000 to 90,000 yuan, were once in short supply. The more expensive a carat diamond is, the better it sells. "Every month, we can sell 4-5 diamonds of more than 1 carat." Yesterday, at the Zhongjie Yijin store, the staff introduced the products to customers and told reporters, "From this year At the beginning, more people came to the store to buy diamonds, and most of them were from Shenyang. "The reporter randomly walked around the market and found that in the past, the price of 1-carat diamond jewelry was about 50,000 yuan, but this year in Shenyang. The quotations for the products sold by major brands are as high as 80,000 to 90,000 yuan through online marketing.

“The market is very polarized. For example, small diamonds of 15 to 20 cents are selling very well, mostly for newlyweds to buy for weddings; while sales of large diamonds, which can easily cost 100,000 yuan, are also very bullish. "Ms. Wang from Dongxiang Gold Store said that many people buy large diamonds, largely because of their investment potential in maintaining and increasing their value.

The price has increased by 20% compared with last year

The reporter found that the newly lowered diamond value-added tax rate has not benefited consumers. On the contrary, people's enthusiasm for buying carat diamonds has led to large diamond prices. Diamond prices continue to rise. Ms. Wang from Dongxiang Gold Store said that due to the scarcity of raw diamonds, the price of large diamonds has increased by about 20%. For example, the current best-selling carat diamond price is 78,000 yuan, which has increased by nearly 15,000 yuan compared with last year.

Ms. Wang told reporters that the current price of diamonds on the market is not decreasing but is rising. "This tax rate adjustment is more beneficial to diamond processing companies, but it has little impact on the retail industry, because in addition to the purchase price of diamonds, there are also processes, channels, etc. that determine its final selling price." But there are also some jewelry store operators Said, "Currently, the diamonds in various jewelry stores are goods that have been subject to tax rate adjustments, and the cost has not been reduced. It's just that there are too many people getting married this year, and the diamond market is good."
