Hi all 
great site here, so much information!
going to be popping the question to my girly at some stage soon, I've decided after all my research that the loose stone/choose a setting is the way to go for me - plus I have also since found I can buy in my home country (Australia) and claim back 11% tax by getting my brother to bring it on holidays here (Singapore) with him in September for the F1! I've found the setting and got the price right, just need the rock!!
I'm happy to choose quality over size too if need be...but also happy to spend in the higher range of my choices if all looks good...

$4254 GIA6222673884 0.65, F, VVS1 (internal graining), ExExEx, Faint fl.....The "HCA" score is 0.9 (all excellent grades) - but would the depth and table value being the same cause any issues?

$4191 GIA2236038132 0.67, F, VVS2 (Cloud, Pinpoint), IdealExEx, no fl....HCA score also 0.9 but "spread" drops to very good.

$4199 GIA (but unknown number?) 0.7, F, VVS2 (Cloud, pinpoint, Surface Graining), ExExEx, no fl....HCA 1.6 ExExEx, very good spread
Your thoughts?
