The Rapaport Price List, published for over 40 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-to-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.
