How to get all the stats on my diamond?

[got2goldens]

Hi all,
I am a newbie here. I have a 1 carat Marquise that I bought at

Helzberg, RIGHT before I discovered Pricescope (of course!)
Anyway, it is IGI certed (again,

) and it only has certain stats on the cert...I have looked at several posts on here giving numbers as to how to figure out if your Marquise is decent or not, and I don''t have all the info I need.
I do have the shape/cut, weight, color, clarity, cert (IGI), measurement (but there are 3 numbers!) and polish/symmetry.
I don''t have the depth or table. How do I get these numbers?
I''d like to plug them in and see how badly we got burned. I like the stone, it sparkles a lot, but I''ve seen a lot of numbers on here and it tends to make a person start wondering...
You know, things that make you go HMMMM...
Anyway, thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Don''t worry about the numbers. Just enjoy.

There''s nothing you can really plug MQ numbers into. I mean, it''s very easy to get those numbers, but all the matters is that you like it (or not.)

If you''re within your return period, you might post some pictures in Rocky Talky...maybe take it to an appraiser who knows you want cut information. Otherwise... I''d probably just leave it alone.

Julie's right.
Each diamond that is already purchased, given or received is the best diamond in the universe.
Just enjoy it.

But DO stop in here next time your are getting ready to shop.

Julie and Moh,
I do like the stone, it''s really sparkly and I cannot see a "bowtie," per se''.
You guys are awesome, and I will defintely check with the PS''ers before I buy again.

Muchas Gracias!!!

You are most welcome, I would love to see pics of it, I love marquise!

I love them too!

I''m still trying to figure out how to use the Macro mode on my camera. And the instuction manual is, of course, nowhere to be found.
So, I''ll try to get some decent shots and post them on Show Me the Ring.
