I''d ask Whiteflash why that stone dioesn''t qualify as an ACA.

How much less is it than a comparable ACA?

Then if you ask again, perhaps someone can give you some more pertinent answers.

prober- I think that stone looks fantastic, as long as it is eye-clean. I wouldn''t be concerned about the stone not making it to ACA status. Brian has very strict standards, from what I hear. But of course, you could ask why it didn''t quite make the grade. But I think you have a winner!

Nice looking stone from the numbers!! How does the IS image look? I''d also confirm it''s eye clean. Also as someone else noted, Brian is very strict with his ACA line but many of them that just miss the mark are stunning as well (I have one!)...so I''d ask what he thinks on the stone as well.
