the reason why people purchase loose gems is because they want a personalized setting.
for example, if you see a ruby ring at macys, but you hate the gaudy setting, you can opt to simply buy the ruby & then take it to a jeweler who will create the setting that you want.

i hope this helps :)

They want to make their own setting (or ring) They want to personalize it and then put the diamond in.
