I feel like it's a glich of some kind. In a different thread the mods said to contact them.Thanks so much for the responses! Any idea why I am only allowed 3 searches? I remember when it was free to use
@SCARLETTE, not sure why this happens but others have complained. Hot link me next time and I can pull them for you.
In regards to why this stone is doing so bad, it has borderline depth at 62.5. The crown is very steep at 35.5 and the pavilion is also very steep at 41.2. Not to mention hitting 41.2 is a trick all in itself as really bad things happen at that angle.
To find stones that score better, look for the following:
- 54-57 table
- 60-62 depth
- 34-35 crown (maybe 35.5, only if paired with 40.6 pavilion)
- 40.6-40.9 pavilion (maybe 41, only if paired with 34 crown)
- 75-80 lower girdle facets (LGF)
- Angles must be complimentary meaning you want to pair a steep crown with a shallow pavilion (35/40.6) or vice versa (34/40.9). Also something like a 34.5/40.7 or 34.5/40.8 is quite lovely.
- Stick with GIA or AGS certified stones
I can't get anything from home computer or phone... even when I log out and log back in. I don't mind paying but if I'm helping others... it would get priceyI have 999 uses logged in, only 3 uses when I log out. I don't think it's a bug, but has been quietly made into a bonus for those regular users.
Just to check my understanding, I have been stating 60-62.4 depth as the PS-recommended range - am I wrong??...

I think 62.4 and under is the PS recommended depth. So IMHO 62.5 isn't anything horrific.Just to check my understanding, I have been stating 60-62.4 depth as the PS-recommended range - am I wrong??
I'm also not sure if we should say 35.5 degree crown is *very* steep - it's still on the edge of the 'stretch' PS-recommended ranges, isn't it??

Yes, you are wrong, . my recommended range is 61.4 - 62% . I don't think you'll find any super ideal cuts above 62%.Just to check my understanding, I have been stating 60-62.4 depth as the PS-recommended range - am I wrong??

Sledge,
where do you find these charts above? New HCA program?
I've been locked out of the HCA tool after 3 uses as well. I'm sure they're monetizing it now, which is their right since this is patented. Not so good for us as consumers who are just trying to compare choices on a small scale for ourselves or friends/family.
Pricescope guidelines are good for blind safe buying. There are lots of nice diamonds outside them.

Sure it's 63 depth and you lose spread, but for mm/$ it's excellent.
Examples of the above stone is why I keep my depth percentage higher than the PS recommended
