There's now way to tell if the diamond you posted about is any good.

"Brown hair, Blue eyes, 5'10", Single. Do you think he's good looking?"

Based on what you posted, the price seems low if it's well cut. But maybe it's priced right if it's a disgusting looking diamond.

Need to see more details from the lab report and see picture+idealscope for best evaluation.

I wrote all the descriptions i thought that's enough. the diamond itself is good looking.
The only thing that worried me was that its written round MODIFIED brilliant. Is that bad?

 

[teobdl]

Didn't catch the "modified" part. In that case, are ASET or Idealscope images available?

Is the diamond from a brand (solasfera, crisscut, etc)?

The diamond you posted is uniquely cut. It's not common to have 16 lower main facets--common modern rounds have just 8.

Have you compared the look of this diamond to a modern round (8 lower main facets)? That is the most commonly cut diamond. Did you like the look?

no it only has a GIA and appraisal. its been appraised for 12 thousand dollars.
the brand is Ben bridge.
yes the top looks a lot like other diamonds. the bottom of it is different but still looks nice. this modified part scares me.

It's quite different than a traditionally cut round brilliant. The "modified" descriptor is accurate - it is different than the norm. It will likely have a lot of very splintery slivery sparkle, as opposed to comparatively larger flashes of light from a round with fewer facets. Only you can say whether you like that look or not. And without an idealscope image there is no way to know it's level of light performance.

Thanks for the reply
I like the look of it. I'm worried about the price. Is it too high for a modified round? Compared to an norm?

Is this a "brand new" stone or is it pre-loved? Who are you buying it from? Because prices for resale stones are only about 70% of new.

Some brands of modified rounds actually command a premium, but I didn't find much info on this Ben Bridge stone. Based on a quick search (in the search bar above, for traditional rb's), $5k is about right in the middle.

In terms of modifieds, here is a comparable stone - a Solasfera 0.92 F VS2 for $8,210 http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/11861/. This one has proven top of the line optics, and you pay for that precision.

Its a pre-loved.
But its in really good shape. Its a platinum ring with this diamond and two .33 caret on each side. All of it together is 5 thousand dollars. With gia and appraisal.

If you've seen it and like it, then I think it's a fair deal. Platinum isn't cheap.

Have an independent appraiser look at it to verify what you're buying. You can find a good one if you click Resources>Appraisers

 

[nikky123]

The only thing that scares me about it is the MODIFIED part. its appraised for 10 thousand. hellllllllllp

 

[ecf8503]

Head. Desk.

Seriously - it is a modified. If you don't like it, or are uncomfortable with the idea, move on. If you do like it, buy it, and take it to an independent appraiser. We can't make the decision for you.

 

[teobdl]

The price is very good if it's a nice diamond. However, it's literally impossible to tell if it's a good diamond unless we see an idealscope or ASET, which sounds impossible in this case.

An appraisal from someone connected to the seller is practically worthless. This is because appraisals are already a bit inflated, and a seller has an incentive to raise the "value" even more to make it sound like you're getting a very good deal.

You need an independent appraiser 1) to see anything funky going on by inspecting it, and 2) to give it a fair market price based on their knowledge of what's out there that's similar.

If an independent appraiser isn't available, then I would do two things:
1) ask to compare this diamonds in different lighting vs an AGS 0 or GIA XXX within PS values (Table: 53-57, Depth 60-62ish, Pav 40.6-41.0, Crown 33-34). This will give you a good idea of how it "performs" vs a top diamond, and you can determine if you still like the look of this modified.
2) make sure there is a return period for a full refund
