Leibish has a nice selection. Diamonds by Lauren has a small selection of mainly yellow diamonds, too. What are you looking to buy? I hope experts like Kenny will chime in.

Not sure if it violate forum rule, but did you pay with listed price from leibish or did you get quite discount from leibish..

Is the their price listed on website reasonable?

For colored diamond, i find it hard to judge its price due to lack of comparison. Unlike colorless diamond, it is so easy to access rough price based on color, clarity, weight via internet

Yes FCDs are rare.
Next there are so many hues, combinations of hues, 9 grades of tone/saturation and sizes affecting price.
Even shape affects price since rounds and step cuts do not amp up the color grade they are more rare and likely cost more.

Next two FCDs may have identical hue and tone/saturation grades but look very different which affects price too.
Judging of FCDs is nearly impossible.

It never hurts to ask.
