Ladies please help a newbie choose a stone!!

[Katie527]

Thank you ahead of time for all of you that help me. I am new, a lurker, but new. Please, I have found some stones I really like, and need some opinions. I am very grateful for any help. They are from previous engagement rings, so they may not be perfect, but I like them. Any unbiased help would be terrific!!

It's super important to know WHICH lab graded each stone? Do you have that info?

Also do you have the angles from the reports as well?

 

[Katie527]

I am not sure actually....I am looking to see. I had one that was graded but I didn't list that one.

 

[sonnyjane]

How did you get the information that you gave above? I just want to make sure you're getting legitimate info.

 

[Katie527]

I got it from the jewlery store who has the listings for sale. I was going to try and post a video or picture of the rings, I have seen them with my eyes. I was also going to try and see if they have the certs.

These are EGL stones? The second and third one are off the charts.

Yeah try to get as much information as possible. It's really hard to tell you what to buy or how much is a fair price if we don't know who graded it. For example, who decided one stone was an I SI1? Was it the highly reliable GIA? Or the store owner's mother? See where I'm going with this?

 

[Katie527]

Do you mean off the charts terrible? I have seen the stones, and they really look nice. I guess I am pretty green......

 

[JulieN]

They have big tables and might be shallow, that is potential for fish eye.

 

[Katie527]

Oh I see!! That I do not want! Thanks for letting me know!

This is a picture of the 1.58 GIA appraisal. This is not the setting though.

#2 is a round European cut, the rest are round brilliant.

Katie, unfortunately there's just not much advice to give until we know more about the stones. Hopefully the store will be able to provide it and you can come back and post . Just to help you understand why more information helps, right now you've basically told us "I want to buy an SUV. One is black and one is red and one is white. Which one will get the best gas mileage?" We need to know who certified them and more info about the angles to tell you if it is a good stone or not.

Thank you for all the help, I am going to do my best to get more information and come back and post.
