How would you spend $7500? Your help needed!

[enyouartist]

Hi Forum, I''m looking to buy a diamond within the next few weeks. My budget is $7500. Please help me spend it on a quality round diamond!

Here''s what I''ve found so far that I like:

1. http://www.whiteflash.com/round_ideal_cut/Round-Ideal-Cut-cut-diamond-750714.htm

2. http://www.whiteflash.com/diamonds/Diamond_Details.aspx?idno=751850

3. G color-VS2-1.083ct - 6.57 - 6.59 x 4.09 mm Depth 62.2% Table 55% Polish and Symmetry are ideal. Price=$7,407.72

Also, I would actually prefer a diamond with faint florescence. There is a slight discount and it looks radiates better, right?

Let me know how you would spend $7500! Thanks.

Here''s how I''d spend my $7500. I''d go to an eye clean SI1 and would seriously consider this beauty in DCD''s signature series collection. This beauty is 1.22 carats:

For some reason your links aren''t working for me so I can''t see exactly which diamonds you are looking at.

I'd personally pick one of these.....G/H color faces INCREDIBLY white when mounted (I own an H), and you get much more presence for the money. The size difference is noticeable.



1.20, G, SI1 for $7380 - simply GORGEOUS cut proportions on this stone.

1.156, G, SI1 for $7125 - the idealscope on this stone is to DROOL for!

1.151, G, SI1 for $7124

1.20, H, VS1 for $7254

1.22, G, SI1 for $7450 - LOVE the proportions on this stone!

1.23 G VS1 for $7410 This stone scores a 2.7 on the HCA and has a HUGE spread (meaning it looks like a 1.35 carat stone). It''s not an ideal cut, but you can tell from the ideal scope image and HCA score that it has nice light return.

1.31 G SI1 faint blue flourscence H&A for $7320

1.35 I SI1 H&A

We were able to find a 1.34 E SI1 GIA Ex/Ex stone for $7500, with an HCA score of 1 (X/X/X/X)! The price was lower because it had medium blue fluorescence. We did get super lucky...
