hello ps community,
since some of my last threads were rather lengthy, perhaps I can trim this one down. I was looking on whiteflash and I found a princess cut with these specs
.69c, I, VS1, depth-75.8, table 73, girdle=xtn-tk, polish/symmetry-vg/g, no cullet, no flourescence, 4.75x4.72x3.58, l/w=1.01, gia cert costs $1,551
what I am baffled about is that according to ps this stone should perform quite well due to depth and table under 80%, granted it could be lower, but the numbers aren''t bad at all. I and vs1 is nothing to complain about either, where I am getting confused is the carat weight. doing a search at other reputatble places, ie whiteflash, superbcert (thanks pq!), gog and some other places, .69 carat stones were a little more pricey than 1550. Thus, what is it about this stone that is driving the cost down? Specifically on whiteflash the majority of the stones that were not over 1600 dollars had lower carat weight, higher colors, but not as desirable depth-table percentages. So I guess I am just curious as to why is this stone a little larger than most I have seen at this price range (not >1600) but still have decent specs? Thanks everyone for your responses...did I keep it a little shorter
