I don''t think you can go wrong either way.
 
Ditto, they are both lovely and about the same price. Do you have a preference between higher color or higher clarity? If so, that might be your deciding factor. Also, do you prefer the service of one of these vendors over the other? They are both great btw.
 
I''d get the WF pair. Truth to be told, they are both very comparable. But the WF ones are whiter...and that''s the reason of my choice. SI1 blemishes should be negligible at 0.3ct.
