Help With Cushion Evaluation Please

[Nocaed]

I''ve just looked at a diamond and must move on it quickly. They are asking $12,800 with details from the EGL certificate below. Does this seem like a reasonable price? Thanks for any help...

Weight: 2.00 ct
Shape and measure: Cushion 7.6 x 6.81 X 4.68
Total Depth: 68.7%
Table Width: 63%
Crown Height: 16%
Pavilion Depth: 50%
Girdle: Slightly thick, faceted.
Finish: Good to very good.
Symmetry: Very Good
Cutlet: None
Clarity: SI1 - the flaw is in the back and barely seen with a scope.
Graining: Nil
Color Grade: G
Fluorescense: None

It looks like a beautiful stone, but I have no experience. This jeweler has been used in the past by a friend. Thanks again.

Do you know which EGL lab graded the diamond? EGL are thought to be softer on grading in some circumstances than GIA or AGS. If you like the diamond I would suggest comparing it with as many other cushions as you can to make sure it is what you want, then making the sale final ( and get this in writing) that it checks out to your satisfaction in all aspects with an independant appraisal. Here is a tool you can use to find an appraiser in your area.

Unfortunately we can't tell much by numbers, cushions need to be seen to be judged.
