Good deal. That will help a lot. I take it they just got this in?

It''s not in-house. I think it''s just been listed recently. Why do you ask?

The reason I asked is because it didn''t show up on there yesterday when I did a search and found that other G SI2 that I linked.

Did you ask them about that one, I''m curious if the inclusions are an issue.

They said the other SI2 wasn''t eyeclean. They said the feathers weren''t hazardous to the diamond. Supposedly, this SI2 is eyeclean. The grading report says it is indented natural and natural. Could you shed some light on that?

Thanks. That kinda surprises me, just cuz it looked so good in the high mag pics. At least I know now, if recommending to anyone else.

This explains indented natural.

And a natural.

I''m not sure how important the numbers are, but it is hard to get ideal/excellent cuts etc even at places like Tiffany, Winston and Cartier. The rounding of GIA certs makes it even harder. Trust me...I''ve tried! However their diamonds still look great and I really like their settings.

Have to admit that you can also see the diamonds in person at B&M''s...but I can''t tell much difference between diamonds in the store since I''m no expert and they are all clean and under lights anyway. I still look somewhat at the numbers and trust the store (and pricescope). The prices at the local B&M''s aren''t much cheaper than those mentioned either. Guess it''s all a trade-off, but based on numbers and price you can''t beat online.

Pricescope offers a wealth of information and certainly can be overwhelming but just remember this isn''t neuro surgery. Most of the comments and concepts mentioned on the forums about ideal proportions and colors and sizes, etc etc etc are just there to introduce you to the concepts and the issues to be more informed. If you ''make a mistake'' so to speak and buy a diamond that is too deep or too big of a table or too yellow or whatever it''s most likely that your fiance will be thrilled and think it''s beautiful as well if you thought so upon seeing it. It''s not supposed to be an unenjoyable experience

Good post Daniel. If you like strong blue fluorescence, a large table, or a "K" color, who are we to tell you otherwise? That''s why there''s an

Outside of it facing up a bit smaller, it looks good. But I can''t see your pics, red x.
