Is this stone worth $30k? 3.11 ct, AGS0, H, SI2

Thank you so much for your opinions. I have been searching and searching and hope I might have a winner now. No biggie though if not. I am not in a rush.

It looks terribly opaque in that photo, and beyond the cloudiness it just doesn't look eye clean (the large inclusion running from center to 6 oclock). But only you can determine your comfort with eye cleanliness.

Have you seen it in person and compared it to other well cut diamonds? The numbers look fantastic, but I'm really worried about clarity.

I have not seen it myself but it was confirmed eye clean. I asked if they could make a video though.

Eye clean to one person may not be to another. It looks pretty messy inside. Kind of like the garden in my emerald. For that money, I would go down in either color or size and up in clarity. You certainly hit the mark with the AGS000! Anyway, that's just what I would do; you have to do what you feel is right. Good luck with your search!!

It's not the little carbon spot that would bother me, but the milkiness/haziness that shows in the photo. Since that's a very low price for that size stone, I think I would look elsewhere... you get what you pay for, KWIM? A stone with those specs would typically come in at $40K+...

Thank you all for your honest feedback. I appreciate it

I think the haziness is the photography, they don't take very clear photos.

The cut looks good, anyway. Of course, you should have any stone of this size shipped out to you for good few days at least before you fully commit.

Here are images of a 3.03 ct stone (also AGS000, H, SI2). Would you call this one opaque as we'll? Thank you!

And the AGS specs
