Hi all, I have been lurking here for the better part of three months, and I cannot begin to thank you guys for all the knowledge I have gained here. The HCA, AGA cut grader, and the tons of posts I have read through have helped me immensely.
It was also thanks to this forum that I found james allen, and just put in an order for a stone.
I guess I just have some jitters or cold feet, but if you guys/gals are bored, can you take a look?
I was assured by the very nice folks at James Allen that the stone is great, but a little peace of mind from the PS gang or cause for concern would be appreciated.

F, VVS1, triple zero. cut parameters are in the AGS report.
The price: w/PS discount. 52k... a comparable GIA cert stone on BN was priced 15k higher.... I had read that GIA/AGS quality wise is similar, but does it affect the value that greatly?
The HCA read this stone out to 1.7 if I remember correctly, and the AGA cut grader yielded a 1B designation, mainly because of the 36% table angle.
