fancies are priced according to the intensity of their coloring, so there is just no way to tell how close these are without actually seeing the stones to determine the depth of color.
i would be leary of a stone with the notation of ''crown angles are greater than 40 degrees''

IMHO:
Color is the most important "C" to consider with fancy colored diamonds.
Colored diamonds are cut to maximize the color, so I would not worry about the > 40* comment as much as if it were a colorless diamond.
Hopefully they both have GIA GTL color reports.
You must see the diamonds.
The first diamond seems to be a good price and the second one seems normal.

Do you have pictures of these stones?...it would be fun to see them.

You didn''t mention it, but I presume these stones come with GIA reports...I wouldn''t even consider a purchase like this without one.
