Hey everyone! I'm new here but great forum.
I am considering buying a diamond for an engagement ring from the friend of a relative. He says it is a 1.45 VS2 F and quoted me about $9K. However, he cannot produce a certificate. He claims it exists but the wholesaler will not allow him to make a copy. I have not seen the stone (we are doing everything long distance) but a friend of mine has and thought it was nice.
I know this sounds like an easy answer but just wanted to get your thoughts. He has sold a couple stones to friends and relatives.
Thanks!
