I purchased a 1ct pricess cut diamond on a cathedral mounted band. When I originally looked at this diamond they only had a little paper copy of the cert (EGL Cert) that had all the specs. The specs on the little paper copy read as below:
1ct
Measurements: 5.54x5.16x3.98
Proportion: Very Good
Depth 77.1%
Table 77%
Girdle: THICK
Finish Grade: VERY GOOD
Purity: SI1
Color: G
PRICE: 3,800.00 (including the platinum cathedral mount band)
Ends up that they couldn't find the original cert and had to send it back to EGL to get re-certified. The specs below are from the new cert from EGL:
1ct
Measurements: 5.15x5.53x4.05
Depth 78.50%
Table 72.70%
Crown 9.50%
Pavillion 43.50%
Girdle: EX THIN TO EX THICk POLISHED
Cutlet: NONE
Polish: GOOD
Symmetry: GOOD
Clarity SI2
Color: G
Fluorescence: NONE
Somehow the clarity went from a SI1 to a SI2 and the measurements do not match. I need to know if I ended up with a better stone then what I paid for or did I get ripped off? What is the ideal price for the diamond with the new specs versus the old specs? Any help is greatly appreciated!
