Stone Question and Store Recomendations in the GTA

I did get to see the little binder the stone was in but failed to jot down all the specifics, but assuming that the stone is what it claims to be I am being given a price of 3K (Canadian) and he'll throw in custom built band for free.

Got to see it under a firescope, and got to compare it to some lower grade stones, really good H&A etc. I want to check it out again before I buy it will all the knowledge my research has given me...

No other place I have gone to has been able to come close to this person on cost vs. quality.. to get close to the same stone at other stores I am at least a thousand or more above this cost, plus the price of the band. SO my question is, is this price/deal too good to be true? is there a catch that I am not seeing, the store is Belgium Diamonds.. http://www.belgiumdiamonds.ca/ I liked the store I liked the owner and sales staff who spend a lot of time with me and were not giving me the scare tatics (see below)

I would also love some store recomendations in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) if anyone knows of them.

I went to Spence (Ya I know) and had a pretty bad experience.. basically the guy there bad mouthed every place I had been to, to the point of insisting that the stones they were talking about would not be the quality that I was told they were and that "Papers can be faked" etc.. that the only way I was going to get a quality rock with any warranty to speak of was to go with spence...

needless to say I was not impressed.. however it did bring up a question... is it normal to get the loose stone from the jewler and take it somewhere to get the stats confirmed? to have a 2nd party say yes.. this is a 50 point VS2 E Ideal Cut stone...

If so can anyone recomend a place/person to do this in the GTA.
