Hello all, I wanted to get some opinions on the engagement ring I''m considering purchasing. The specs below are from the EGL International certificate. I''m aware that EGL may be a little loose on their grading, but I think I still might be getting a great deal. The price I was given was $3800 for the diamond in a basic 14k white gold setting. The seller is a friend of a friend who owns a jewelry store and swears that its a strong H and mounts up nicely. So my question is... even with it being EGL and possibly having slightly lower specs then whats on the cert is this a good buy? Thanks in advance for any comments.
