So I purchased a round solitaire diamond ring from a respected online dealer a few weeks ago.
I took it to jeweler/appraiser today and they told me that in addition to the internal inclusions that made this a GIA rated VS2, there were 3 external inclusions, possible from mounting or improper storage, that would actually make this an SI1 or SI2. I am very disappointed and planned to propose this Friday.
I had decided to sacrifice a little size for quality but apparently its not even that good of quality.
What should I do next? Or is this common when a loose diamond is rated and then mounted?
Or do jeweler/appraisers act like this because you didnt buy it from them?
Thanks.
