This is the way.

Online sites are legit these days and if you aren't satisfied you can return it. You'll easily save 15-20%.

Setting it in a local shop gives you a little better quality setting and the opportunity to develop a relationship with someone local if you want to make changes.

The natural vs lab grown debate really depends on your budget, size preference and how much value you want it to hold.
