Hi all,
I have been trying to find a diamond on James Allen/Whiteflash/Adiamor etc. I'm looking for around 2 carat oval, GIA, no visible warmth (H or above?). I am pretty new to this, but seem to be going around in circles and unable to figure out which stone is the right fit (on paper at least) Ultimately I want a stone with good sparkle that isn't yellow, that is eye clean. I don't really care if it has fluorescence as long as it's not cloudy. As for bow tie- I think I'm ok with it as long as it not too obvious- minimal would be great.
So, I was reading about diamond concierge. I had contacted a company that goes by the business name 'diamond pro'. The man initially seemed interested, but appeared to only want to work with JA (he poo pooed Whiteflash, as he didn't feel they were ethical- he didn't go into detail and I didn't ask). I'm totally open to getting a diamond from JA but don't want to restrict the search to one place.
Of those of you out there who have had to return a diamond, were there any problems with the process? My budget is tight (12.5 k for stone), so I know I may have to compromise. When I look at the GIA reports I get freaked out by all the different inclusion types. It seems to be the more I learn from this awesome site, the more I realise I don't know
Would any of you experts out there be willing to choose me one when I am ready to purchase (hoping to purchase within the next month)?
