I'm hoping the experts here might be able to help me out with some suggestions. I am looking to upgrade my 1.8ct I VS2 to a 3ct diamond. My diamond was originally purchased from BlueNile so I can take advantage of their upgrade program if I find something there, however I seem to see better stones with better pricing from JA, WF. I'm not against keeping the stone I have and turning it into a pendant if I don't find something at BN. My budget is approximately 30k. Diamond will be set in a classic platinum 6 prong setting.
For my desired size and budget, a J colored stone may be my best option, in which case I'm hoping to find something as white as possible. Cut is by far my number 1 priority - I'm not as concerned about color and clarity as I am making sure the stone is brilliant and sparkly.
I'm lost trying to run the calculations and determine the best stones between BN, JA and WF. BGD currently has nothing close to that size in my budget.
Suggestions greatly appreciated!
