A Rajkot jewellery price list is rarely reliable, because it shows a figure without the plating, weight, stone grade or quantity behind it. To get a price you can trust, send the same written specification to several makers and ask for a quote in the same format.
Searching for Rajkot jewellery online wholesale will give you plenty of listings, but a listing is an advertisement, not an offer for your specification.
Why price lists mislead
Remember that a figure in a list may be a marketing figure, not an offer. Some sellers publish a low entry level to attract enquiries and then quote differently once they see your requirements. The only number you can rely on is a written quote that refers to your specification and carries a validity date.
A list can look precise and still hide the facts that set cost. Check for these problems:
- The list does not state plating type or thickness, so you cannot tell what the figure covers.
- The weight is missing or approximate, although metal weight is a major cost driver.
- The price assumes a minimum quantity that is not shown.
- The list is old, and metal and process costs have since changed.
- The seller is a trader whose list includes an unseen margin.
Build a specification once
Write one specification per design and use it for every quote request. Include photos or a sample, dimensions, target weight, base metal, plating colour and thickness, stone type and grade, fittings, quantity, packaging and the market you will sell in.
When every maker quotes the same document, differences in the numbers reflect real differences in price, not in what is being offered.
Compare quotes on equal terms
Check whether quotes are for the same lead time and payment terms. A faster delivery or a smaller advance can change the number, and so can the currency or the trade term used. Ask each maker to state the trade term, such as ex-works or FOB, so you are not comparing a factory-gate figure with one that includes delivery to a port.
Line quotes up in a table with the specification, quantity, lead time, payment terms and what is included, such as packaging and testing. Look at why the highest and lowest quotes differ, instead of simply choosing the lowest. How to compare quotes from different Rajkot jewellery makers goes through this in detail.
A quote that is far below the others usually means a lower specification, and the explanation is in how imitation jewellery prices are calculated.
Confirm the price before you commit
Ask how long the quote stays valid, what happens if metal prices move, and whether the figure includes the tooling cost. Put the agreed price in the purchase order against the approved sample, so a later change needs your written consent. Verify the maker too, using how to verify a jewellery supplier in India, before you rely on any number.
