Contact JA. Buy the I stone. But tell them and make sure they understand, that they cannot ship it until you give the OK. Ask them to just hold it for now.
Ask Mark what it would take to get an ASET on the E. Have him do that. If the E ASETs out. Then get a refund on the I and buy it. If the E doesn't ASET out you tell JA to ship the I to you.

If this is what you want, ERD comes across them once in a while. I also know a cutter that cuts these stones.
What was wrong with Blue Nile again? Their signature cushions are 8 main and look pretty fantastic to me. I like them better than the BGD cushions because of the softer outline on the Blue Nile. If I was buying a modern cushion right now, I would likely buy the Blue Nile Signature Cushion although I wish I did that last year when the prices were lower.

Oh, we can do that? Pay and hold shipment?
So mean time do I need to pay Mark to while waiting for the E ASETS?

Scroll to the bottom of my thread for real life photos of the BN cushion. I suspect they will all look very similar.

Not being able to view before purchase makes things tougher than it seem, especially for fancy shapes.
