I am really nervous about buying a diamond online -- how safe is it to go purely by measurements without actually seeing the diamond? If something is AGS Ideal 0, and has ideal polish and symmetry, is it a guaranteed eye-catcher?
More specifically, there has been a diamond posted for a couple of months that has not sold. From what I can tell about the stats, it is a very good diamond. Am I missing something? Should I be concerned about the medium blue flouro or what about the girdle? What does that percentage measurement mean for the girdle and is that good or bad? Anything else catch your eye about the below information that I should know or consider?
Here are the stats:
