The table is a bit larger than we normally see here, and the crown and pavilion angles could be within a more balanced range, and it scores badly on the HCA. I would look for some more options personally, if you would like some help or for us to suggest some diamonds, just let us know!
 
you dont need to contact the dealer above to find the stone you want. That is something that isn''t done on PS. All you need to do is give people here the price range and size you are looking for. They will be more than happy to help you look and suggest options in your price range.

ditto, keep looking. You might want to check out whiteflash.com, jamesallen.com, goodoldgold.com to help you find a great stone.
 
Check this one out. Same size, nearly the same price, and much better HCA score:

Plus, when you view the GemEx Report, you'll be glued to it! I had my eye on this stone for awhile, but went a little larger:)
 
I would def pass on this stone, the table is too big, you can do a lot better!
