Hi all, new to the forum and been doing a bit of reading... unfortunately I don't know if I've done enough and just made a purchase today on WhiteFlash and would like a second opinion. I'm hoping if I chose wrong I can still call them to change my order.

Forgot to mention, this is for a princess cut diamond.

Sorry, I wish I could upload the Ideal-scope and Aset images to make it easier but it won't let me save it.

Out of the list the rep gave me, I narrowed it down to these 2 diamonds and decided to buy diamond #1 and just paid for it today; however, I just noticed in the ideal scope images there are some white spots... and would like a second opinion on whether or not I made the right choice or should I change it to diamond #2.
 
The white spots are fine, no worries.

Did WF say they were equally beautiful?
 
Sorry, I posted a couple of others that the rep recommended to me. All are at 1.0 carat and within my budget of $6000; however, the colour is only rated at I, but the clarity for all is VS1/VS2. I disregarded these ones because of the colour quality but now notice the ideal-scope looks more ideal to what I should be looking for.

The only thing she mentioned was that that side by side with the original 1.0 carat and the 0.902 that I choose was that the size was negligible to the naked eye, and that price wise I would be getting a better quality diamond by choosing one under 1 carat.
 
I personally would get the 1.032 I VS2 because it is quite a bit larger than your E, and I'm not color sensitive... but that's up to your personal color preferences.

If you have to have H or higher, then I would take Wf's suggestion, I agree the size difference is negligible.

I'm sure my gf wants a 1.0 carat at least, but I wanted to get a colour of at least H... so that's why I'm torn between the two diamonds. The other option the rep gave me was another diamond at $6600 which has exactly what i'm looking for, but it's almost $1000 over budget.

It's a 1.023 carat G VS2...highly considering biting the bullet to change it to this one...
 
Thanks Julie for the re-assurance and taking the time to post, I've decided I'll keep the diamond. I wanted to stay with White Flash since they were so helpful during this whole process.
