Hi folks,
My original post was in the "colored stones" section of the forum, but it was recommended I run this stone by the rockytalk section for opinions.
A little background: My gf and I wanted to do something a little different with our engagement ring and she was set on a round, 7mm "peach-champagne" sapphire. After an extensive search which yielded few results, I decided thanks to our friends in "colored stones" to look into champagne diamonds. My budget for the entire stone is between $3000 and $3500. I have an idea about the setting but I am not fixed. A lot of it depends on the stone I choose. So, I have negotiated a price of $2600 for this stone:

There have been a few comments about the lack of quality cut of this particular stone. I do like the fact that based on the pictures, the inclusions don't seem to immediately visable. However, I don't want a brown looking stone, it is very important that it is a light champage color.
Any opinions and/or links to other options are greatly appreciated!
