1. Depends on the 4C's of the diamond and the material of the band.
2. Perfect or flawed? Perfect 3 carat: $44, 000 - $61,000 ($61,000 is for a Signature-ideal diamond meaning the most perfect you'll ever find) Flawed 3 Carat:$22,000 Perfect 2 Carat:$15,000 (for a signature-ideal diamond) Flawed 2 Carat:$10,000 - $15,000 By the way these are JUST the diamond. No setting included so add another $5000-$10,000 for the appropriate setting for a 2 or 3 carat ring These are far too large for an engagement ring. On another note, this is far too large for an engagement ring. Stick with something smaller. I find even 1 carat is too large for most people. EDIT the prices are also for a Princess Cut diamond! Different cuts are different prices, but this is a general idea for you.
3. $20,000-$50,000 depending on the colour, cut, clarity and setting. 2 carat would probably be between $2,000- $15,000 depending on those things. Most people stick to 1/2 carat, but if you really want to spend big, i'd say go for the two carat. 3 carat might be verging on too heavy!
4. For a premium or higher cut stone, colorless, VS1 to SI1 , the price can very from $30,000 to 130,000. Checkout one of the reputable online jewelers like http://www.diamond.com or http://www.jamesallen.com/search_results.asp?cid=131&step=SearchResults&sbmt=1&shape=Round&carat_from=3&carat_to=3.49&price_from=&price_to=&color=%27F%27&color=%27G%27&color=%27H%27&clarity=%27VS1%27&isHA=1&cut_grade=1&cut_grade=2&fromtabledepth=&totabledepth=&fromtablesize=&totablesize=&x=67&y=14 to get a better idea of the price. Of course you would also need a setting to hold the diamond which can be from $200 to $4,000.
5. The Rapporport Sheet is a non-discolsed sheet not given to the public. However bluenile com sells supposedly 5-10% above rappaport sheet. So assuming you want a non yellow diamond and more of a white diamond without yellow F-G color it is called, and an average price I will assume you want something relatively eye clean vs2-si1 the published price on bluenile is $62.000 to $320,000.00 as of the time of this writing. However, if you are not someoene with that budget you can buy a laser enhanced diamond. A real diamond that size cleaned up with a laser that is just like going to the dermotolist or for human eye surgery the very same laser you can get a 3ct E color Si1 diamond for $17,100 from any of my websites below.
6. 3 carat diamond engagement ring is from 10k depend on the design and cutting. However, you can get 2 carat diamond engagement ring with about 3k.
