If color and clarity grades are accurate, the price is good. Do you know which EGL lab issued the report (NY USA, Israe, or Belgium)? EGL NY is more strict. Pricescope |

The cert says Los Angeles. Glad to hear positive comments. I was concerned about the girdle being sl thick to thick, but it still scored good on the cut advisor! Thanks for the advise. |

That is $3980 per carat, and $994 per mm-wide. This stone http://www.virtcert.com/cgi/u/1012/v.cgi?stock=1006358&_s=1012&_p=sdf348gd743&_c=&_fs=1&prestock= is $4086 per carat, but $1003 per mm-wide. So the GIA stone is 2.6% more per carat, but only .9% more per mm-wide! What this tells me is that your stone is hiding some weight in the girdle, which is fine as the cost-per-mm wide is still less. I would buy it if a colorometer says the color is really J and if you have a real hard time seeing the inclusions under a 10x loupe. If it is easy to see them, then it is not a VS1. Look at many stones on this site http://www.goodoldgold.com/clarity.htm and learn what you expect a VS1/VS2 and SI1 to look like. Then verify that you are satisfied you are getting what you think is a VS1 (or even VS2 because it would still be an ok price). |

If you don't end up getting it, please let me know who has similar stones for that price! I'm looking for G/H color around 1.5C. |
