Have you seen the stone? Do you have pictures? I wouldn't count on IGI but I'd get an independent appraisal if that was my only option.

We cant really give you much input without images and asets. Can you post Some pictures.

I would go on James Allen and look at stones in the same price range verged by GIA.

Specs looks decent for the price point & the grading lab.

From my experience I'd say there's nothing wrong with this IGI certified diamond.

Please post the images so that other PS'ers can share their views.

Seems deep. It'll look smaller than a. 9ct with a 63% depth. And EC already face up smaller.
