The D VS1 looks beautiful! I'm not a fan of the E.

I'd put a hold on it so it doesn't get sniped.

Thank you so much!

I have done a HCA on the 2.11ct and it came back with 0.7

I found a few other diamonds with slightly lower carat but similar specs inc a GCAL graded one. Are any one of these better than the others or do they all seem on par? I have done HCA scores on all them and included them below. They are all in the 0.7-0.9 range, all 'Excellent rating' and 'Very good' for spread. They are all HPHT diamonds, do you think any of them look like they would have some blue nuance? I can't see any but then again I am not 100% sure I am looking out for the right visual indicators in the videos.

Every stone in this batch looks terrific. I don't see blue nuance in any of them. My favorites are the 2.00 and 2.05.

All the above diamonds are now showing as "call to check availability", I didn't realise they can become unavailable that quickly >.<

I found a couple more gcal 8x rated diamonds from 12fifteen (linked below), interestingly they are all much lower in price than the IGI rated diamonds from Adiamor/Ritani (linked above) even though the specs are very similar. Am I missing something? The below diamonds look good to me

Diamond update: So after all that it turns out the 2.00 D VS1 IGI diamond Kim recommended in her earlier post is actually still available and I was able to find a local jeweller in Australia who is able to get the diamond and price match it to Ritani. Will be good to be able to see in person before purchasing He will also get a couple of other options for me to be able to see/compare to.
