Whiteflash has sent me stats on two round diamonds that are both A cut Above Hearts and Arrows. Keeping in mind that I would like a diamond in the 1.60-1.70 range and want to spend no more than 13,500 they said cuts the most important (which i agree) and so I should go w/ H&A. I was wondering what hte difference b/t their Hearts and Arrow is compared to the Premium cut diamonds on engagementringsdirect''s website? Are ERD''s premium cut diamonds a level below the H&As and considered premium cut only within that group? I guess I thought as long as the diamond was ideal/premium/excellent cut you were ok and it didn''t have to be H&A.. I mean how come ERD doesn''t have Hearts and ARrows diamonds? Does that mean their diamonds are a step below? I thought I was on the right track. Now i''m confused! Maria
