I have a stone on hold from Ritani:
https://www.ritani.com/diamonds/round-diamond-0-66-Carat-I-color-GIA-certified/D-3W5YQ7?search_key=D-3W5YQ7 (HD video available)
Specs are:
I-color
VS2 clarity
GIA XXX
Table: 55%
Depth: 61.2
Crown ang: 34.0
Pav ang: 40.6
M-STT girdle
FL: Faint
They can't provide me with an idealscope image, and buying and returning isn't an option. I need it to be right the first time. I would prefer to buy from whiteflash or JA, but this seems like excellent dimensions for the money, and I can't find anything on either that really measures up. Any thoughts on whether I am making a good decision? I am a bit uneasy buying something without seeing some kind of more objective analysis of performance like an idealscope image.
Also, strangely, the same stone listed as a very good cut on this ebay listing from India of all places (??):
http://www.ebay.in/itm/0-66-ct-I-VS2-GIA-Round-Solitaire-Diamond-Engagement-Gold-Ring-2176837605-/111476173992?pt=IN_Diamond_Jewellery_Loose_Diamonds&hash=item19f47f6ca8
I assume this is incorrect, but it has me worried that something is funny or off about this stone.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
