Hi all,
I posted about a week ago regarding my search for a Radiant and with the great help of JulieN (hopefully she sees this post!!) I finally received it in the mail.
I have a 30day return policy with B2C Jewels (will post a review on them later, but so far had a great experience. will write a comprehensive review once i decide to keep/return this diamond).
Here are the specs and GIA report. This was ~$3685.
Ct: 1.01
Color:H
Clarity: SI1
Depth: 70.4
Table:57
Symmetry&Polish: Very Good
Girdle: Thick
Cutlet: None
Flourescence: None
Measurements: 5.80x5.79x4.08

The diamond looked eye clean and very symmetrical in terms of shape and brilliance/faceting(?) which I really like, since radiants can have so much variety.
Here are some attached pictures from my phone camera. Very amateur and not optimal lighting I am trying to figure out how to post a video if that would help people with input. I only have a Idealscope provided by B2C since they do not provide ASET imaging. I am aware of some light leakage on the edges of the diamond (I think?) but am not concerned since I am looking to place it in a halo.
From my amateur pictures does anyone see anything that might raise a red flag? Especially for the price I paid? I do think it MIGHT look a little dark on the inside when looking at it face-on, but from the sides, the diamond looks really transparent and clean. But for radiants is it normal to look a bit darker face-on?
If you would like me to try another picture from a different angle, please let me know and I will try to figure it out.
