This diamond has good potential to be a great performer if the grading and angles are accurate. (You didn't give Cert info-AGS, GIA, etc.)

Scores 1.1, TIC, Ex/Ex/Ex/Vg on the Cut Adviser. That's great!

The price seems a bit high. Is this an H&A??

Yes, it sounds like a good stone, but here is a stone with the same color, clarity, weight, and all the highest scores for cut evaluations -- for less.

$6285

Is your stone certified? Is there a return policy?

The cut does seem good. Have you compared it to other stones?

 

[diamondsman]

the stone is a performer! Is it a gia? ags?
It relly has all the measuremnts of an ideal cut.
as far as price is concerned I think it is overpriced by a $1,000.00
If you want to spend that kind of money.
I think you can get a bigger stone for that price.

even for a hearts and arrows?

I would not call this "overpriced" but it is no bargain either.

Typically, the diamonds near 1ct listed on Pricescope's database (not the "known H&A" - all the bulk) have price variations of as much as 50%. This is by no means abnormal, since the listings only give rough lab report data on the stones. The entire price interval for ~1ct H-VS goes from $4200/ct to $7200/ct. At &6500/ct, your price surely takes into account cut quality. A peer (1.02 ACA at Whiteflash) goes for $6300 - not exactly allot of saving there.

However, a quick search for "known H&A" (on the respective Pricescope search engine) revealed a few G-VS2 priced from $5700 to $6500. I would not call VS2 a worse clarity - there isn't going to make any difference to you, since VS just means "no excuse eye clean", whether VS1 or VS2.

Did you try the H&A search engine on the GoodOldGold site? I am not sure it draws on the same data as this one, and the 5 min try may get you more options.

As for the stones listed below: I woudl not interpret those HCA scores as a hard pricing factor (so a score of 2 gets a discount relative to a score of 1). Among stones scoring above 2, I would rather get some direct analysis (say Light Scope or Ideal Scope pistures, and such) to tell their character...

Just as a disclaimer: I just hope no one counted how many times I wrote this down lately

, but I surely believe in the mantra, for what it is worth!

OK just found out it scores all very good on the brilliancescope, has all excellents as far as sym and polish and has a gia cert

Always glad to hear about a happy ending...

Since you seem to be looking for the reassurance of top quality aside the appearance: this is it!
