Need help to compare round shape from WF and goodoldgold

[nimb]

Experts,
please help me in comparing following diamonds.

1) http://www.whiteflash.com/diamonds/Diamond_Details.aspx?idno=2432800
2) http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/2354/
3) http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/2395/
4) http://www.whiteflash.com/diamonds/Diamond_Details.aspx?idno=2432858


Question 1-->diamonds 1 and 2 have pretty much same details apart from .01 diff in weight. Why is the price diff? Which one is better?
Question 2-->diamond 3 has pretty similary to diamond 2 except for color. How much diff can G and H make? I am basically looking for white sparkling stone without any inclusions.
Question 3-->which one is better over all between 1 and 4.

Regards.

I'm no expert but you're really splitting hairs on the stones you listed. if you lined them up in a row next to each other I doubt many could tell them apart. They are all H&A's and will be beautiful. I'd probably pick number 4 just b/c it's the biggest

All of them look like they''d be comparable and stunning.

Personally, I think the WF stones are better priced....as you point out, #1 and #2 are nearly identical and yet the GOG stone is more than $200 higher than WF''s branded ACA stone. (I personally prefer the crown/pav angle combos of the WF stones, too, but all the stones would be beautiful).

I think the WF stones represent better value for the money, but if you''re not focused on value, any of these stones look to be beautiful candidates.

Splitting hairs, #4.

Thanks for the responses.
Which one is better:H/VS2 Or G/SI1 considering appearance to naked eye and value?

Assuming the SI1 is eye clean, I''d take a G color over VS2 clarity.

All of these diamonds are gorgeous, and very similar. I don''t think you''ll see much of a difference between a G and an H, so I''d be tempted to go for number four. It''s slightly larger, and also has awesome numbers (they are all awesome, but like that one the best).

Let me clarify my answers, lest it look like I''m contradicting myself. Numbers wise, I''d pick 4, but answering your second question, disregarding numbers, I''d pick the G. But, this is really spitting hairs. Either will be beautiful.
