Hi guys,
I've been looking at this sapphire and will appreciate any insights that you may have from it. It's large and there are photos of it set & unset.
Am focusing more on potential issues with the gem and will consider trustworthiness / transaction safety separately. Doubt the seller will accept returns.
Things that trouble me are:
Thanks!

Things that trouble me are:
- Okay so the colour doesn't seem to be top, although it's still kinda nice. But in the setting it's starting to look a bit "flat" to me. Especially when compared to the other sapphires from the same seller (sold and no longer available), which I'm going to post as reference colours since I assume his pictures are in the same conditions
- Unset I can clearly see a window that is mostly hidden once set (or by the cloth?), but it doesn't seem too bad
- Am suspicious that it's zoning somewhat - when he flips it over, it looks like the bottom of the gem is more transparent?
- Same bottom flip over issue with the Reference Sapphire #3
- Does sapphire have serious zoning issues in general? Is anything a tell tale sign?
Thanks!
