I believe the highest rating for the new princess cuts is an AGS 0 rating. I am no expert on princess cuts, but that''s what i''ve read. Hopefully others will chime in and help you out.

Actually, GIA and AGS don''t "certify" anything - they give diamond grading reports, stating their opinion on the characteristics of the diamond. I wouldn''t worry though - AGS has a really good rep as a lab.

Sounds like a really pretty stone - did you get to see it in person? I have an AGS 0 and I love it.

I saw it and loved it. I just wonder if I''m getting a good price.

So I guess AGS is ok? I shouldn''t be concerned?

Any thoughts?

AGS is more than OK, they are better
