did you meant to say "sarin" report? if so,there is more specs that you havan''t post about the stone. 

Sorry, yes I meant Serin and these are the only specs I''ve seen so far. I will definitely be reading the report very carefully in the morning and doing tons of reading on this web site tonight. Also could you please clarify what you mean by a "Mind Clean" stone. I''m not familiar with that term...Thanks. I''m assuming by "Eye Clean" is that it just looks pretty and sparkly?

"Remember; it''s harder to find a "MIND CLEAN" stone then a eye clean stone.....AKA vtigger86"
 
That is just Dancing Fire''s signature.  It appears at the bottom of all Dancing Fire''s posts.

I think it's a play on words saying that even if you are told that a diamond is eye clean, your mind may still think you can see flaws in the diamond.  Basically, a joke about it being tough to find stones that you're told are eye clean and you believe them to be eye clean.

what i meant by "mind clean" is would the inclusions bother your mind (psychology) even though it''s eye clean.

A Sarin report shows the physical measurements of the diamond, not the color or the clarity. If someone gave you the information you posted and said it came for a Sarin report, they might have misspoke, or maybe you misunderstood. The specs you posted look more like the info from a Grading Lab Cert.

The specs you posted so far look good. EGL USA has become a consistent lab, but other EGL labs have yet to earn that status. If this an EGL Israel Cert, you''ll want to make purchase contingent on a satisfactory independent appraisal. If the color and/or clarity is off by a grade or 2, it could have a huge impact on the pricing of the diamond.
