Hi Smalldog, You will probably get more response if you post to the "Rocky Talky" forum. I will warn you also that you will need crown and pavillion angles, total depth % and table %, plus dimensions for the experts to comment on the pricing. Have you checked out the tutorial above and the cut adviser. I have a Radiant and found that with fancy cuts such as emerald cuts etc. you have to do a visual to find "the" stone! The standards are just guidelines. Good luck.

I would recommend that you repost this on RockyTalk -- that's where the serious stone evaluations happen  , so you'll get more responses. Also, state which EGL lab graded the stone (NY, Isreal, etc.) Their gradings tend to vary, so it makes a difference. I don't know anything about EC cuts, other than that I love them, so I'm not a help here.

It seems a bit overpriced, esp that EGL graded stones usualy require a discount (the lab is regarded as lenient, so this could turn return F or VS1 from GIA). And, "very good cut": why? who says so? It sounds like these words are worth as much as that setting (or more) for the seller, so why not get an explanation? Besides, there are not too many ways for the seller to explain this: he can use a standard (such as the AGA charts, listed under "fancy shapes" on Pricescope's front page) or demonstrate light return (even if this is not realy to top concern with ECs). Polish and symmetry do not say much in this case, but, if this was GIA cert, I would look for "very good" symmetry in an EC...
