So I''ve been going into Jewelry Stores to ask for AGS0 Princess, and I''ve been communicating back and forth with a certain sales person and she was suppose to call me. The phone rang and it was a man on the line. He said Jane* asked him to call and talk to me because she is busy with another customer. Fine. I just needed the specs on some diamonds she had found for me. Unfortunately she couldn''t fine any AGS0 Princess, but she had 4 other AGS princess. He got curious and asked me why I would only consider AGS and went on about how GIA ex/ex is equivalent. I told him that I''ve been reading a lot about Princess Cut Quality on the internet and I know about Light Performance, Proportions, ASET/IS images.
now, I''m a newbie, but I am pretty sure I''ve read and learned enough from pricescope experts to be comfortable with what I tell the jewelers. Back to the story, I told him that GIA does not do Cut Grading for Princess cuts and that they only do that for Round cuts. He had the nerve to tell me that I can''t trust information on the internet, and that I should go to the GIA website to read about Grading Cut. He said GIA do grade Cut for Princess, and it''s a factor of Symmetry and Polish.
I will print out the Grading Cut info from the GIA website and highlight "GIA provides a cut quality grade only for standard round brilliant diamonds...," then I''ll ask Jane for the name of that person and shove it in his face.
