So i had a conversation with a diamond expert over at Blue Nile.
I requested for an ASET and Ideal Scope image for a diamond i was interested in however they were quick to tell me that they do not provide such images except for a simple picture of the diamond.
So i asked if people actually buy diamonds solely based on what the grading report says? The diamond expert said yes.
Now my question to everybody reading this on pricescope - do you buy diamonds without seeing the ASET and Ideal Scope images? What if you find a diamond that has a perfect cut but you're still not sure what the ASET or Ideal Scope looks like?
Then again aren't majority of diamonds sold without having an ASET / Ideal Scope image?
Do you buy blind? What if you find out later that the diamond had been purchased by somebody already and you might have missed a 'gem!'?
So what are your thoughts on this article advising people not to buy blind which im sure many of us have ready before: http://beyond4cs.com/buying-diamonds-blind/
