After researching on the internet for quite some time I was unable to
find a price for the exact diamond that you listed above.

I contacted Tiffany & Co. directly (800-843-3269) and they told me
that the approximate price for this diamond would be $3970 - $3700.
The sales associate didnt have the exact one that you listed above,
but the $3970 was for a .57 carat with standards I-VS1 (closest she
had) and the $3700 was a rough estimate of what a 1/2 carat one would
be. (all prices are in US dollars).

http://www.diamond-safe.com gave me a much lower quote, $1350 for what
they said was a higher quality than a VS1 (.55 carat).

The representative told me that there was a vast range of prices for
all retail prices of diamonds, and depending on where you buy it the
price will be different. It is usually best to fix a price first and
then visit a few stores and see what you can get for your money.

According to this forum, if you buy a used diamond you can get them
for about 60% of retail value:

To summarize, you are looking to pay between $1350 and $3500 depending
on where you buy, and what the exact specifications of the diamond
are. Things like color greatly influence the price, even if one
diamond has little or no difference from another to the naked eye.

I hope this was the answer you were looking for. If you need any
clarifications, let me know and I will do my best to further assist
you.
