Byber, please try to keep to one thread, otherwise it gets confusing - thank you!

I prefer the second.
no one who respects you will make a diamcalc or gem adviser model with so little info unless they want to mislead you.
keep it here and let the other thread die

thanks for you guys reply. Here are more info. for the diamonds.
Please give me some more advice why the 2nd diamond is better (compare price and cut...)
Sorry, I dont have tools to get Idealscope images.
also, I wanna ask why you guys said the 2nd one is better in which way? coz the 2nd diamond only has 1 excellent on light return but the rest are only Very Good. However, the 1st one have 3 excellent and only spread is in Very good.

Byber, as Garry has said, lets keep it to one thread please, it gets confusing if there are more threads on the same diamonds, that way we know where we are, we can just use this one thread from now onwards, ok?

 

[byber]

ok like you said the 2nd diamond (0.87 cart F VS1) is better but could you give me some more advice about the 2nd diamond please. The diamond store offer me the price is US $4500. Good deal? (and I check Repaport price is US $4698) or can bargin for lower?

Sorry to ask as I am so new in diamond and I only have limited knowledge and I hope I can find a good dimond with better deal, thanks a lot.

Is the following information enough?
