The precise purchase price that Mr Burton paid for the Taylor-Burton diamond, paid to Cartier, is not available on public record.

At the auction where Cartier purchased the diamond, they paid $1,050,000 for the stone. Mr Burton purchased the stone that day from them, and their only concession to revealing the price he paid is that 'Cartier made a profit'.
