AGS says cut is worth 50% or more of a the price of a RBC between the finest (theirs !?... sic) and the scariest. Funny, no? (the picture below shows the claim on AGS's website LINK).

It looks like there are at least some examples confirming the claim. Say, between 1.5cts GIA graded H/SI1 70%/80% roughly and 6k, and some cherished AGS0 prices 10-12k.

Didn't dare look for princess cuts too long. The difference doesn't seem quite as great between the least priced GIA graded and AGS0

About half as much %-wise... for the few examples I've looked up.

sounds about right...
50% on RB''s and around 33% on princess cuts and around 10% on asschers.
My prefered range of asscher cuts is now going for about a 10% premium where a year ago they were the same cost.
Maybe I shouldnt have done such a good job selling em, didnt get nuthin and raised the cost for myself when im ready to buy!

OMG...I just had the blondest moment!

I thought he said *kitchen* asschers and I was wondering what the heck they were, and I was thinking that it was a really bad marketing term for a diamond!! DUUUHHHH!!!!

But, more importantly I will get an asscher one day...kitchen or not!
