Hello,

I attached 2 pictures of GIA reports (1 of them is a pdf that must be downloaded) I've received from a jeweler and I'm wondering if anyone can point out something that would be of concern with either of these 2. The SI1 is around 7200$ and the VS2 is around 8200$. To me they both look like good options.

Yes, I understand without pictures this whole thing is meaningless. I haven't seen these 2 stones yet, but I just want to get some expert opinion about something I should be wary of since the jeweler will order them to his shop if I like the GIA reports.

Thanks!

whoops, the 2nd pic comes in too tiny when you try and open it. the pdf file opens just fine.

here's the stats on the .img attachment:

cushion modified brilliant
measure. : 6.25 X 5.60 X 3.90
1.20 ct
si1
color D
polish: VG
sym: G
table %: 60%
depth %: 69%
girdle: thin to extremely thick (faceted)


after looking more into this, the thing that concerns me in the pdf gia cert is that the girdle is very thick to extremely thick. how big of an issue is this?
 
no one? is the extremely thick girdle a dealbreaker?
 
without pictures...hard to say. can you find any cushion brilliants?
 
the pdf file i attached is a cushion brilliant. to me it looks good and im going to check it out in person, but the gia report shows a very thick to extremely thick girdle, which is something i read to stay away from... whether thats true or not i dont know...

like i said, im going to check both stones out in person but i want to kinda know what to look out for when i go to see them.
