Hello Everyone,
I have been looking at F-VVS2 diamond for an engagement ring. My budget is 8-10K.
Have shortlisted 2 of them:
1. Bluenile - 1.00 Ct, Cut - Ideal, Symmetry- Very Good, Polsih - Excellent, Fluorecence - No, Price: $8700. Holloway Score: 1.7

2. JamesAllen - 1.07 ct, True Hearts, everything excellent. Fluorescence: Faint, Holloway Score: 1.3, Price: 10,700.

Questions:
•Is james Allen diamond worth extra 2K? Which diamond is better value? My analysis shows 8.5k/carat is a good price for F-VVS2 diamonds
•Is Faint Fluorescence an issue on JA diamond. I always thought None is preferred for colorless diamonds?
•Both have "Additional Pinpoints not shown" Is that an issue with that comment?
