Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum and really not sure if I am using it correctly. I really need your guys advice! I am really concerned about a diamond I purchased from James Allen for my wife's 14 year ring upgrade as I noticed that it was IGI certified, and now have learned that it grades diamonds 1-2 grades up apposed to GIA. I have saved up in years advance to buy my wife the perfect ring. I'm really amendment about getting her a triple excellent diamond which according to the specs, is the perfect diamond. I have tried to reach out to James Allen's customer service numerous times, but it just seems that they are just trying to sell me. I have requested many times if they could have there gemologist to look at the diamond and tell me what GIA would consider the grading to be, but they keep telling me that they don't do it. The reason I'm so concerned is I want to be sure I am getting what I paid for, as it is a $25000 diamond and I have been saving up for it for about 14 years. Right now the diamond is in production. Can anyone give me advice on what you may think of the diamond.
