How is the RapNet Asking Price List different than the Rapaport Price List?
The Rapaport Price List, published for over 30 years, presents Martin Rapaport's
opinion of High Cash Asking Prices that are used by the global diamond trade as
a starting point for negotiations and a basis for estimating the value for a broad
range of diamond sizes and qualities. The RapNet Asking Price List presents actual
asking prices by sellers for specific diamonds. RapNet Asking Prices are not based
on opinion and may fluctuate on a minute by minute basis. RapNet Prices are available
to members online in real time via Rapaport TradeScreens™. A primary benefit
of the RapNet Asking Price List is that it discloses detailed information about
discounts and premiums to the standard Rapaport Price List.
