TL said:I've heard diamond dealers say that GIA has "ruined" diamond color grades that normally come back more favorable with IGL. That's why on Liebish's website, an IGL fancy vivid yellow will be less money than a GIA fancy vivid yellow, if everything else is the same.
IGL really holds no water in the trade. It's not a substitute for GIA. For example, no one will pay a certain price per carat for an IGL fancy vivid pink, but they will for a GIA report with that grade.
