Hey PS community,
I''ve been doing A LOT of searching recently because I wanted to finally spring from some "sparkle" for my gf of 5 years. It''s going to be our anniversary soon so I figure I''d buy some. I''ve got a few questions for the community before I make a purchase.
Background:
I don''t have much to spend, up to approximately $500. I want to buy the best diamond for that money.
Questions:
1.) I''m most worried about "tcw" right now. I feel that if I buy a 0.33tcw vs a 0.5tcw, that it might be too small =/ (sorry for sounding so newbie and shallow, but i''ve been influenced by my cousin that keeps telling me size MATTERS)
2.) I''ve been looking at www.diamondstudsonly.com . Are they a reputable online seller? Anyone heard of them or done business with them?
3.) I''m deciding between 0.5tcw, I1 clarity, G-I color, and good cut. They don''t have cut percentages available I think.
The other one I''m deciding is 0.375tcw, SI2 clarity, G-I color with Very Good cut rating. In the end, I''m thinking the 0.375 will be more brilliant but it''s going to be smaller. What do you guys think?
4.) Are there any more reputable online vendors that sell in my price range with the size I''m looking for? Whiteflash is soooo nice but it''s so pricey. I can''t afford such nice diamonds yet.
Any advice would be noteworthy and I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much
