Hello everyone,Well I finally have another stone, it is:GIA cert

Crown Angle 34.4 o

Table 55.4 %

Girdle % 0.7 – 1.2Rates excellent on HCA, I really notice a difference from the last stone I had, particularly in different light settings. Wow, it really looks beautiful! Some thoughts about all of this, or the way I feel about it all.
I bought an H&A type diamond to feel safe in what I was getting. I think I would have been very happy with an above average cut non H&A stone but how do I get it? No one wants to provide any information! Also I wanted to shorten this process since I have been at it for some time….. I wanted a very nice cut and got it. But I don’t want to say from where or exactly what I got so I don’t give them any credit.I have dealt with 2 vendors on the Internet for this diamond purchase, they both asked me to write up something to post and say I had a good buying experience from them. Sorry to say, It really wasn’t that great, one sold me an AGS000 that leaked light and was returned and the other just seemed like I was talking to a used car salesman. If it wasn’t for them having the diamond I wanted I would have kept looking. If vendors really want me to be happy and get my business, and return business than post the Sarin numbers so I don’t have to chase my tail and talk to sales people, because they don’t help anyways!Consumers also need more Independent appraisals to chose from, while I think an okay service is being performed I feel things can get way too chummy if more choices are not provided.So,
Give credit to where credit is due, which is Pricescope, HCA and special thanks to Lawmax, I would have been lost with their help!Thank you all,
