I've been looking for diamond engagement rings on Craigslist, though I'm interested in only the stone to put in a new setting. I found someone selling the following ring that was originally bought for $3500 from Helzberg Diamonds.




She is willing to let the stone go for $900. She says there is a black speck in it that is visible to the naked eye, but you have to look for it. She is willing to meet me at a jewelry store where I thought it would be a good idea to see if a jeweler could tell me if it can safely be put in another setting (I know next to nothing about making a purchase like this). Is there anything else I should ask the jeweler? Does this look like this may be a good purchase? I'm looking for a princess cut in the 1 carat area.
