Hi Everyone,
Let me introduce myself first.. I''m Liz.. I live in Australia and as many posts have already said, I feel I should reiterate the point: The diamonds here are mediocre and pricey!
I am looking to buy H&A cut diamonds, preferably .5 F/G - VS1/VS2, No F... EX Sym and Ex Polish.
Most importantly I want the Hearts & Arrow cut which is something that is very difficult to get here in AU.
Unfortunately there are many vendors who do not accept credit card for overseas buyers except so far for Blue Nile and James Allen.
GIA Cert / GCal ( I have read about the GCAL and I''m still pretty confused as it doesnt really state anything about it being a H&A cut or not.)

Half of the arrows look like they are missing.
So how does one actually tell other than looking at the stone itself?
Any ideas/assistance would be most appreciated.
Thanks! Liz.
