Hey everyone...Just found this on Whiteflash...what do you guys think? I know the specs aren''t bang on...

too much leakage under the table to be close to super-ideal but the human eyes wouldnt likely see the leakage that said its a step down from most of the ES stones wf sells.
I would likely make gia EX but not AGS0 for performance.
There are better diaamonds out there.

it's a sweet spot size, harder to find...but the specs are definitely not the absolute best...it's not a dog by any means though, though there is some leakage under the table ... the table is a little too small for me and the depth a little too large, but the angles correspond nicely to each other... i wouldn't buy this unless there was absolutely nothing else out there and i was strapped for time or similar. it will be better looking than ~95% of what you find out there but there are better stones...if you can find something similar in terms of size and color/clarity but with better numbers, i'd pass on this one.

i''ll comment, since i''ve actually SEEN this diamond...
it''s absolutely beautiful. it is very bright and the size is purrrrrfect

if this is the size range you are after, i would definitely consider this diamond.

Thanks for the replies. I know that the numbers aren''t perfect but I thought that just from the picture, combined with the price for the size, it seemed like a good deal.

I was comparing it to this one, which i''ve had my eye on forever...

What do you think between the two?

gosh the size difference for same price is obvious there!! tough call. i do trust belle since i know she knows her stones...so if she saw it and said it looks fabu...it''s intriguing, you could always order it in and see what your eyes tell you!! it''s not a DOG by any means, we just get so spoiled by these super ideals on here with their stellar #''s. but for that size and that price, maybe it''s worth a real look.

Yeah, I had just wanted to stay under 10,000 and was quite surprised when I saw that for just under 1000 more than the 1.51.

Thanks for all of your advice!
