did i pay too much

[mag419]

Purchased G SI3 princess cut (1.7 carat) for what I thought was a good deal because the inclusions are very faint and hardly visible to the naked eye. However, from what I''m reading it looks like I may have payed too much. Can you please let me know the price range of such a stone?

You can do a search for stones in the Diamond Pricess section on top of the page. You can also click on Prices on top and go to Price Comparison. What lab graded your stone? I don''t think GIA or AGS recognizes SI3 clarity grade. With that said, I think your stone might be more of an I1.

Thank you. I checked, and it does look like I over paid based on the carat size, color, and clarity. The next question is.... is it possible that my stone was priced higher due to the fact that the feathers are VERY faint and people have a hard time finding them? It''s also a great cut. I''d appreciate responses.
