Evaluate this OEC - Good, Bad or Ugly?

[Trasid]

I watched this OEC on ebay and I sooooo wanted to bid on it and I chickened out.

Now that the listing is closed, please evaluate it for me. Do you like it? Did someone get one heck of a good deal or did it sell for what it's worth?

It looks like it might be a nice stone, but there was no appraisal or lab report to confirm color and clarity so you really have zero idea what it really is. And the bigger thing for me is that the seller has 7 feedback, which is a dealbreaker for me. Not only that, he is in Sweden!!! I would not have bid.

I am not entirely sure it was a good buy it looks white enough but the first pic which is the only half clear one shows a lot of dull white in the stone and I think it would be more like an SI2 SI3 maybe even an I1 - sellers usually vastly over estimate either the clarity or the colour of their items if not both if they have no certificates with them. And there is nothing particularly outstanding about the cut of it that I can see although the photos are not really good enough to tell much.
