First, I'd like to thank everyone that commented in my last post. I truly appreciate the help! I figured a new thread might be better as I have a diamond picked out and price agreed on. I will likely be wiring the money tomorrow or Thursday if you all think this checks out. My budget was $6000, and I am priced out a little bit over that with this diamond and setting. Setting is the setting my GF loves so just making sure the stone checks out. I also am in no hurry so I dont want to make an unnecessary mistake.
- prefer medium-strong flourescence, am fine with an excellent SI1, preferred VS2. Am fine with a I color that rates well and wont appear warm in the halo. H puts my mind at ease. Was told they checked the diamond and it is not milky/oily/hazy.
setting:

I know the HCA score is a rejection tool, not a selection tool but this one doesnt have as good of a score as other diamonds I have looked at, (i think it was 1.8, ex-vg-vg-vg).
Diamond:
1.03ct, H, VS1, strong flourescence









Is it possible to get image/video confirmation the diamond is not hazy from the flourescence?
Is it too much to ask if they can take a video or a few images of it next to a few other diamonds that look good on blue nile if they can pull them just to make sure this stone holds up vs the others IRL? they had access to a lot of the blue nile listings.
thank you in advance!! If this is the one, its been a fun journey getting to this point the last few months. Yeketiel has been excellent to work with.
