Does this seem a bit pricey?

[sucuse8]

Thanks for the help in advance!

Details:
Cushion cut
G
VS2
1.51 carats
Halo setting (Harry Winston style)
Stone has an attractive "ice" look to it, not crushed.

All in, $12.8k
Being purchased from diamond district in NYC, an office, referred only business, not a booth guy. I ask if it seems pricey, as a few sites like bluenile have it for 1,000 to 1500 less.

Thanks again!

Well first, who graded it a G VS2? GIA? EGL?

Sorry, can't tell anything without pictures.
Don't know the cut quality of the cushion.
Has GIA lab report to prove the colour, clarity and other Cs are correct?
No idea how the workmanship of the setting is.

We can't tell you anything from those pics.

Why don't you shop at Brilliantly Engaged (Formerly Engagement Rings Direct)-- they specialize in cushions and can provide you with ASETs and everything you need to make a good decision. And they are right in the diamond district.
