Wholesale transactions have historically been between a reseller of an item to a retailer who, in turn, sells to the end consumer. With logistics having become much simpler thanks to the Internet, there are and now wholesalers who sell items directly to consumers. This is no different with jewelry, including the wholesale purchase of rings.

When buying rings wholesale online, you have to be aware of some factors that will help you identify legitimate suppliers. Wholesale companies sell jewelry at true wholesale prices. This means two things. First, as a wholesale company they probably would be interested in selling in either bulk quantities or with minimum orders. Second, real wholesale suppliers ask for a tax id or reseller's permit number. This is to verify that you are a legit business. Using those two tips you can identify whether a company is a true wholesaler or just a discounted retailer!

When dealing with an online rings wholesale company, you need to do several things. First, you want to be sure that you are buying the real thing. There are many companies out there that will advertise that their jewels are 'authentic.' Read the sales copy very carefully, and educate yourself quickly. For instance, beware of words like 'faux' or 'realistic.' This is an indication that the metal used isn't real gold, silver or platinum, and also that the stones are fake.

You can find wholesale directories for jewelry online, and they come in many different types. Some are free, so it is a good idea to start with them. Use your favorite search engine to find a wholesaler of engagement rings. Use different terms such as distributor or wholesaler to make sure you cover the entire range of possibilities for engagement ring wholesalers and evaluate the results.

You should keep in mind that some wholesalers will not sell less than a minimum quantity, so you must be sure of the exact merchandise you want in what quantities. Check to see if there is any kind of return policy or a satisfaction guarantee. If you should discover that the items you purchase are not what you expected, you may want to return or exchange the merchandise.

Also consider using eBay to find jewelry at wholesale prices. Again, use caution. Check the seller's feedback and ratings, and make sure that you are dealing with a reputable person or company. If the jewelry is an expensive piece, use the escrow service that eBay recommends - even if you have to pay the escrow fees yourself!
