I posted yesterday and got great feedback. Unfortunately my budget dropped by a little. My diamond budget is around $2100 (after Pricescope discount).

Here are the final 3.

If I go over budget by just a bit, I was thinking this one.

I like the I color the best of your three in budget. The H is nice, as well, if eye-clean.

The G''s symmetry is causing some wonky patterning and the J has quite a bit of leakage apparent in the photo and the steeper pavillion will trap color, making the slight tint of the J even more apparent.

Great thanks!! I liked the I a lot, as well.

They are saying all 3 are eye clean.

http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/G-SI2-Ideal-Cut-Round-Diamond-1253869.asp No - not cut very precisely or something

questionable - would need input from someone else.

http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/H-SI2-Ideal-Cut-Round-Diamond-1274169.asp The angles/table/depth are all good on this. The picture to me looks
like it may be loosing light but I dont see how that is possible with the good angles so its probably fine.

My thoughts too.
