what do you all think of this diamond in terms of its quality, size and ofcourse the price. Is it worth compromising on the clarity? Was told by the rep that its eye clean.

With an eye clean SI1 diamond, I don''t consider that to be a sacrifice. I consider it a great way to save money. You will get a diamond as clean as a VS or even VVS with the naked eye for a much cheaper price.

For me, I would prefer a round with excellent or ideal polish and symmetry since there are so many of them out there (unlike fancy shapes). Is there crown and pavillion info?

no they don''t have that info. Is it important enough for me to ask them before deciding to purchase it?

Considering you could buy it from a vendor who HAS the stone (BN probably does not...but I don''t really know) and who has that info readily available...I would explore other options first. Check out Whiteflash and Good Old Gold.
