My first post here, but I love reading the posts at this site! I''ve learned SO MUCH from everyone....the time has come and I''m diving in and looking for a purchase. My g/f and myself fell in love with this Cushion cut diamond. It was at a B&M store, the second was at a "diamond district"...

2.05 carat
VVS1

The first one is more expensive by $4200.00, yet side to side it looks just as big, if not bigger than the second one. Does color make that big of a price jump alone or are there other factors, my novice skills can''t comprehend? In the end I want the best and I just need ANYTHING that could push me one way or the other. Opinions? Thanks to everyone for making me a more educated buyer. I''m looking forward to getting better at this as women are meant to be loved and pampered!!
