There is a basic charge for a plain ring of $300, which covers the ancillary costs of the sale.
The average platinum metal charge is $66.00 per gram over the current bullion cost, plus waste, shaping and finishing charges.
It is best to have both the engagement ring and wedding band produced at the same time from the same platinum alloy.
