About the pull the trigger on this diamond as a round center stone for another ring I'm interested in. Was trying to keep the diamond cost in the $3750 to $4250 range. Already have a ring picked out as well that I'll be placing this in, they want $2250 for the setting, and an additional $150 to set a loose diamond. Is this standard?

Any and all insight into both the diamond (quality versus price) and the ring setting would be appreciated. My biggest worry with this diamond is the feather line that I'm seeing on the left side of the picture of the stone, and on the GIA report. Am I correct that this will not be visible to the naked eye, just at 10K magnification?
The other two diamonds I'm considering are more expensive, have better clarity, look a little cleaner, and are a little larger, but are they worth that much more? If I'm doing my research correctly, the cut doesn't seem as good based on the HCA score. So bigger and better clarity, more money, not as good of a cut. From everyone I've read on here, cut is King. And this King wants the best for his future Queen!

Thanks in advance for any and all insight. Think I'm done my due diligence, want at least a carat, no nine points for me. Everything I've read said Medium Fluorescence is actually good with a color of H, I, or J. So I think I'm okay with it. Just trying to talk myself through an educated decision. Also, is this ring priced okay? Should I try to have another company recreate something similar?
