Hello,
First post as I have just stumbled cross this website but it looks like a really great resource.
I don't really know much about diamonds but I recently chose to buy this 2.05c I-VS1 EX EX from James Allen for ~$18k because I couldn't really find anything that at least appeared that good on bluenile at that weight for the price. It has arrived and out of the box I opened at work I thought it looks great and it almost glows a white sparkle. However I have noticed that it doesn't have quite the large intense flashes of sparkle I have seen in person on some other rings in jewelry stores (for a lot more money). Did I do good for the money purchasing online? Obviously some similar spec rings are listed online for $25k+. What separates them from what I got and how would you know looking at the online only details that you aren't just overpaying? Just got it so it's in the 30 day free return window but I don't think i will return unless people think I really overpaid.
Thanks for the help!
