Hi,
I'm new to the gemstone thing, I've done quite a bit of online research but feel I need some honest opinions of people that know more than I do before making a big purchase. I'm looking for a padparadsha sapphire to have set in a ring for my wife for our anniversary.
I found this one from skygems.ca that I like, but want to know if the price is fair or outrageous for what it is.

The owner was kind enough to make a special video in different lighting for me.

I've seen some pretty ones on thenaturalsapphirecompany.com too but was told by a couple people that they might not be as authentic etc etc.
What do you sapphire-knowledgeable people think of this?
asking price is 2,700$ CAD (2,000$ USD roughly)
I want something that pops color-wise that's my main thing - not too concerned with the other specs - it's all about color saturation and intricacies, Maybe a little sparkle doesn't hurt either.
Please be honest and if you have better sources to recommend for a lower price, that's very welcome!
It's a huge investment for myself (with the setting in a ring).
thanks so much appreciated!
