Is your question specifically about the the price of the stone or do you also want to know a bit about how this stone may perform compared to some others with slightly different proportions?

edit: oh, and what is the ct weight and stats of the first stone? Is it also 1.7 E VS? VS1 or VS2?

 

[Christina...]

This stone is comparable as far as specs and has similar cut to the stone you listed. Price seems fair.

Hmm, I thought that the Canadian dollar was stronger than that right now. It does appear to be a fair price for the stone.

This particular stone will likely display lots of white light with fewer flashes of colored light. It's considered a 60/60 type stone, some people love them because they either like lots of white flashes of light or they like that they appear to be a bit larger than more TIC type ideal cuts, which tend to be more popular on this board and which has slightly smaller tables, higher crowns and produce a nice combination of both colored and white light return. Do you have preference on which personality type you like?

 

[Christina...]

You are also paying a premium for the E color. Some people love the purity that a DEF stone offers, some people...dare I say most people can't detect color differences until they reach the G/H range. If you would like to either save some money, or go larger in ct weight, this might be an area you would like to consider. G/H and VS2/SI1 offer the best value in my opinion and still gives you a very high quality stone.

Thanks Christina

Very pretty stone. I agree it, you should certainly consider it especially if you are comfortable considering other color grades. An H will face up nice and white! And over 2cts!!

Sweet find, msop!

The only reason it's not a triple-0 is the 1 (Excellent) for polish, which is by far the least important cut parameter.

My husband absolutely HATES that I search for diamonds and read PS all the time. He says I'm obsessed. Man, it's soooo hard not to buy!!

I'd be on this stone like stink on -- well... ya know.

 

[Christina...]

I like these choices as well....the one that says its sold....I accidently added it to my cart. so I assure you its still available at this very moment anyway.
