Looks good to me but where are the other tests and reports on the stone to show light leakage, etc.?

And can you see the inclusions? That old eye clean thing again.

No expert just my .02

I like the numbers on the JA stone a bit better. Ask for an Idealscope pic.

I like that JA stone a lot.
The IS is going too look good but get one anyway.

Here''s a picture of the diamond...is it bad the arrows aren''t all aligned?

I "think" they are looking that way because the diamond, or something, was tilted/off when they took the pic.

Did you ask for the IS pic? Which I agree w/strm, will most likely look great. But if I know one is available, I aways ask, it's just safer/more thorough.

The JA is my preference. Looks gorgeous. I like the depth better than the WF.

yep tilt mostly
It likely does have one heart that is a little messed up but it isnt going up against an ACA either.
In other words not enough to hurt.

The price is $22,800.00 for the JA diamond - am I thinking too much or does that seem a little low for a 2.04 ct G VS2 AGS 0?

Thanks!

The JA stone is very nice, and it looks like the main inclusion can be covered by a prong. I wouldn''t worry about the arrows, they are going to look nice and it might be due to tilt as others have mentioned. The price is fine, nothing to worry about.

Thanks for all the great feedback. I received a picture of the Idealscope and it looks great. I''ll post it as soon as I can get to a real pc (posting wirelessly via iphone). I''m 75% convinced this is ''the stone'' but was just worried its too good to be true as other stones with similar specs are $3-$4k more. It will be paired with 2 pears if that helps too...

THanks again all!

they have another one for the same price, this ones a little better.
Its an very very competitive price but there is nothing wrong with the diamond.
Id put it on hold asap.
