Hello everyone!
I have been lurking for a bit and I must say everyone is so knowledgeable about diamonds! I know I am in the right spot to ask my question, and hopefully you will give me the news I want to hear lol.
I have gotten permission from the hubby to upgrade my engagement stone for our anniversary (Feb 11)/Valentine''s day gift. Since he is in Iraq, it is up to me to pick it out. Since he picked out my engagment ring, I never really took the time to learn the 4 c''s and now have some questions.
I currently have a round .51c H-color and I2 clarity (I think). The stone I have found is a round 1.25ct E-color VS2 clarity. The price for the stone is $1750. Is that a good deal? I''m afraid of getting ripped off and I have put a hold on it, but now I am second guessing myself. There is an appraisal that comes with it, but I plan on getting it appraised and insured when/if I buy it.
Please tell me this is not a rip off?! I would like to think this is a good deal.
I look forward to your advice!
Thanks for your time.
