Need Opinion on a couple of RB's

[tpan413]

So I have reading this site non-stop for the past 6 months and have narrowed it down to a couple of stones. Both are very reputable dealers. I need opinions. Thanks!

Stone 1
ID Jewelers Signature
Carat 1.76 (Non H&A)
7.82 - 7.84 x 4.73 mm
HCA Score 1.1
Color H
Clarity VS1
Cut Ideal
Polish Ex
Symm Ex
Price $19,337

GIA Report: https://myapps.gia.edu/ReportCheckPortal/getReportData.do?&reportno=2127743472&weight=1.76





Stone 2
Whiteflash ACA
HCA Score 1.1
7.48x7.50x4.60
S19,503

Please also let me know if you can find something comparable somewhere else. I am looking at VS1 (mind Clean) and G to H in color. Cut is most important to me. Looking to stay under 20K. Will Consider a VS2 if color is G or better.

Thanks

I think that Yeukitiel needs to spend more time on his images. I haven't seen a good one from him in a long time, and I don't necessarily think that it's a poor reflection of the stone choice, but based on these two stones I would choose the ACA.

I know I can't really get a good feel with the images he provided. Hopefully, someone else can give their opinion

I'd feel better if there was a good clear image of the stone itself, because I can't tell much from the images on the first stone. It does look like it may have more leakage than I'd be comfortable with, though.

An ACA is basically always a safe and excellent choice, but it just depends on how much you value cut versus size.

Cut is most important to me. I was hoping someone could find me something comparable to the ACA stone
