2.7c Oval, VS2, I color - Clarity grade is based on clouds that are not shown.

Hi there,
I have been looking for a stone for a while, I already purchased the stone from Blue Nile on the basis that if I do not like it then I can always return it.

One of the things that I love about the stone is the dimensions, 11.24 x 8.05 x 4.88 mm is bigger than a lot of 3c stones that I have seen. I like the table and the depth %'s. My concern is that the clarity grade is based on clouds that are not shown. Should I be concerned that this will severely impact the light performance?

Any input would be really helpful. Every time I ask someone for advice I get a diamond seller telling me why what I am looking at is terrible and that they alone can find me an excellent stone.

Can you link us to the Bluenile page for the stone? You can not tell much about fancy cut stones with just the numbers. We need up close pictures and
videos.

As far as clarity, we usually say at a VS2 level it should not be an issue. However, we did have one person that bought a VS stone that either had clouds
or twinning wisps that he thought made the stone looked "cloudy". He ended up returning the stone.

Post the link so we can see the cut and how the clarity looks.

The cut looks ok. I have to say that I'm concerned that the price is so low. When stones are priced a lot lower than similar stones (minus the
clouds) there is usually a reason why. Since you've order it, you can check it out in person. Take it to jewelry stores and compare it with other
stones. To be honest it does look a little hazy in the video but I hate to go by just the video.

Oof. That is not a sentence I would want to see. "Clarity grade is based on clouds that are not shown." is generally almost a guarantee of murkiness for an SI stone. This one is a VS2 so it's possible? that it could be OK? I would make sure to see it in person before buying. If it's not murky it could be a great buy because many people stay away from these stones, but I would definitely double check.
