First a huge thank you to those who respond to those of us who know next to nothing! You are patient and helpful.
I am purchasing from a local B&M as I get 100% trade-in. This limits my selection a bit, but I know with the help of others on this site I will at least get the best quality available for my price range and selection!!
Here are three options that I am looking at - are any of them by far better than the others? Any I should throw out for sure? The first two scored well on HCA; the third not so much, but I like that it''s a VS2. My preference is to stay G or above in color and (sigh) size does matter. I don''t have pics on any - they are all in a different branch and will have to be brought in for viewing. But, I didn''t want them to bring something in that really wasn''t worth looking at!
Thanks so much for your help.

Oh, and I think this should pop up for every newbie like myself: WARNING: Regular use of PS could result in current diamond shrinkage !
