The price is great... it seems too good to be true. I dont mind blue flour in diamonds and the vendor has assured me it does not look milky or cloudy. Im sure i must be missing something here... you just cannot buy diamonds this size for this price in australia.

Looks good to me. Looks eye-clean to me too but did you double check with the vendor?

There is a significant disocunt for colorless grade stone with strong/very strong fluor, probably what you are seeing in this stone. Maybe the vendor also has trouble moving this stone because of the misconception the fluor is bad in the general public so he applied more discount.

I have requested some more images of the stone in natural daylight and asked the vendor if is eye clean. I'll post some images tomorrow when he replies. I'm not too concerned as they have a 30 day refund policy, so if I do decide to purchase it I'm covered! Thanks for your help!!

where abouts are you vanilla? Jogia used to send stones to several capital cities in Australia for you to view in person. Maybe you could do that first?

I'm in adelaide and unfortunately they don't have an appraiser here to send it too... Just my luck!!
