AGS v. GIA?

[Opticcurve]

Would you prefer to have an AGS certificate or an GIA one?

AGS for three reasons:

1. They are supposed to be the most strict, with GIA a very close second. I do not know this from first-hand experience -- it is just what others have told me.

2. They give crown and pav angles.

3. They rate cut.

This is probably irrelevant but the overall "packaging" of the certificate such as the hardcover binder from AGS looks nicer than the one from GIA!
