I have found the following diamond and would like to get some opinions:

$4,000
GIA Certified the sarin report says:
.90 carat Depth 59.4
H VS2 Crown 31.7
6.29-6.32x3.75 Pavilion 40.8
Depth 69.5% table 57.7
Table 58% girdle med to sl thick
Girdle Medium faceted
Polish and Symmetry Very good
no flourecence

Is this a good deal? Should I be worried about the difference on the sarin report and the GIA certificate?

Based on those measurements, I'm assuming this is a typo:




Depth 69.5%

and should be 59.5%. If that's the case, I would not worry--the differences are negligible and to be expected with Sarin readings.

 
Second LawGem: you shouldn't worry about the difference, which is within measurement error.

The price is a bit high, however, comparing to the internet prices.
 
I like the proportions, and the stone should be quite brilliant - it scores 1EX on the HCA (VG-EX-EX-EX).

There's only one thing I don't like... The price... You could better if you shop harder or have a look on the internet(assuming you're buying locally).

LawGem - You are correct it was a typo it is 59.5 not 69.5!
