Help me choose a stone!

I am about to buy a round LGD in the 3.5 to 4.5 ct range, preferably under $4k. Here are a number of options I have come up with and would appreciate any thoughts - good or bad. I have tried to stick with the specs that @DejaWiz has detailed in other posts, but not sure what else I should be looking for in a lab grown stone...

I like the 4.19 out of the ones you posted.

Take a look at these as well. They are HPHT without blue nuance.

@Kim N, those are gorgeous! And the 4.13 says ready to ship which I take to mean they have it in hand. No chance of it already being sold through another vendor.

No, most (probably all) of these stones aren't on hand. Ready to ship just means it can ship asap.

Most other listings don’t have the “ready to ship” icon next to them. So I figured those stones still need to be sourced. The little truck icon has to indicate something, so I simply figured the stone was on hand - possibly a return.

What else would be the significance of that little icon? Just marketing? Granted I haven’t purchased from them. My puzzle brain likes to fill in the gaps lol

Most likely it means a US/NA supplier is holding it instead of an overseas supplier.

@Kim N thank you for the suggestions. I was able to buy the 4.03 you suggested through Ritani and they price matched…. I’ll let everyone know how it looks in person!!
