Is this a fair price?

[dp12]

I'm looking at purchasing a diamond and was wondering if $13k USD is a fair price for this diamond:
- 1.74 carat
- H color
- VS1 clarity
- Excellent cut
- GIA certificate with Excellent in cut, polish, and symmetry
- Strong blue fluorescence
- 1.0 HCA





Thanks!

Looks nice - what are the angles and can you get an idealscope on the stone?

The idealscope is pending. Here are the % and angles:

DEPTH %: 61.90
TABLE %: 57.00
CROWN ANGLE: 35.00
PAVILION ANGLE: 40.60

Extremely promising by the numbers alone! Seems like a very fair price; it's being discounted because of the fluorescence, which shouldn't be an issue but I'd ask to make sure it's not hazy/milky (a rare occurrence...I have G with SBF and I LOVE her!)

thanks for the feedback and advice!

Here's an ideal scope of the diamond. Is there anything noticeably wrong with it? I do see light leakage.

Not light leakage....it's strong back lighting. It's a beautiful IS! I definitely think this is a great choice with these specs and price!

The IS isn't too bad. Would like to see an ASET if possible. It isn't that badly cut, not quite super-ideal though, but still pretty darn good. It's a little hazy smack bang in the middle to my eyes (could be the fluorescence), but that fluorescence should help out with making this stone look a little whiter in daylight even though it's in the near-colourless colour range.

Very nice...good numbers as well as idealscope...should be a lovely stone.

Yall have put my mind at ease with the diamond. Thanks for helping!
