Can I get an expert opinion on this stone. I'm clueless when it comes to reading the various reports. I would greatly appreciate an expert analysis. THANKS!!! http://goodoldgold.com/diamond/4786/

thomaslongmore Rough Rock Total Posts: 18 Last Post: 10/4/2008 Member Since: 9/7/2008	Here are my concerns hopefully someone can help me with... 1. What is the reputation of goodoldgold.com 2. Comments on the GIA report: Additional clouds are not shown Surface graining is not shown (What is this?) 3. Is goodoldgold.com competitively priced? Is this a fair price for this particular stone? 4. Color grade G.. how does this compare to the colorless grades?

Skippy123 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 19,828 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 11/24/2006	Well, if you do a search you can read several great reviews on Good Old Gold; they have a great reputation her on Pricescope. Also, you are safe with a G colored stone for a Princess; it is near colorless, you should not see any color.

I've found Excel Diamonds to have the lowest prices on AGS princesses, but they don't have all the great thingamajiggies (and expensive) that GOG does. Also, Excel has to call them in (they are just listed, but no pictures or anything.) 5. This is the highest point where most people may distinguish a difference between a D and some lower color. Maybe the sentence is worded badly; that is, most people cannot distinguish a D from an F. About the stone. The lxw ratio might bother me. It's at 1.049 lxw, and I can see it in the pictures.

thomaslongmore Rough Rock Total Posts: 18 Last Post: 10/4/2008 Member Since: 9/7/2008	JulieN.. I would like to thank you for all your help. This process has been quite discouraging. I feel like I've reached a dead end with the internet... No AGL certified diamonds within the specifications I'm looking for.

thomaslongmore Rough Rock Total Posts: 18 Last Post: 10/4/2008 Member Since: 9/7/2008	You've just about got it.. I'm shooting for F+, VS2+, over 1.0 carat and < $10,000. There just doesn't seem to be anything in that range with enough data to may a sound decision.

THANKS!!! http://goodoldgold.com/diamond/4786/ That is a gorgeous diamond!! 1. What is the reputation of goodoldgold.com GOG have an excellent reputation. 2. Comments on the GIA report: Additional clouds are not shown Surface graining is not shown (What is this?) Clouds not shown and surface graining not shown are not an issue, especially in VS2. 3. Is goodoldgold.com competitively priced? Is this a fair price for this particular stone? GOG are competitively priced. 4. Color grade G.. how does this compare to the colorless grades? Some colour sensitive folk may notice the difference between a colourless diamond and a G with direct comparison, but not so much without, a G will still look very white and is a sweet spot for many. Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn
