Dear all,

I'm looking for an engagement ring. I've spent 2 months trawling through these forums, so I've got a general idea of what I want. Basically, I'm looking at:

Carat - .76-0.9 roughly
Colour >=I
Clarity >=SI1
Cut - Ideal
Cert - Prefer AGS to GIA
Budget - $4000-4900 (for the stone only)

I searched for BN, JA, WF and BG to look for the stones suit my need; finally, i found two, please give me advices and thoughts, thanks.

Both of them are eye-clean (the website expert claimed), 3ideal and Hearts and Arrows with AGS cert; the 1st one is ~$300 more expensive than the 2nd one but I prefer to have a better color than clarity if both of them are eye-clean.

1st: 0.890 H SI1 $4790 (Clouds are not shown)

2nd:0.882 I VS2 $4500

They both look good...for $300 I would go for the H (number 1) stone.

I would go with the H stone as well. Cost difference is minimal and specs are great on that one.
