Hi there, first post and new to PS. I've decided to start looking for a ring and not really sure where to start. I've been reading some of the wiki but when I go to whiteflash and look at the ASET pictures, still confused. :(

Anyways, hoping you experts might be able to help pointing out any particular good diamonds and perhaps adding in some comments as to why they are preferred over others? I know it might be asking too much, but if you have the spare time, it'd be greatly appreciated! In case the diamonds get bought before I get a chance to get it, then at least I'd know what to look out for in the future :)

What I'm looking for (low budget, just something affordable that we might be able to upgrade later...)

Setting: 4 prong platinum solitaire on WF has been catching my eye...

Diamond: Something under $1500, Princess Cut, AGS0, anything above VS1 or VS2, and anything above H colour? But of course, if there are really good ones that are outside of these specs, I would be happy to take a look!

Thanks again in advance for any help!
 
So I was just browsing Whiteflash's inventory and saw a couple of their Princess A Cut Above that would work pretty well within my budget...what do you guys think?

The next one is from JA with a GIA cert, and it seems pretty good, am I missing something compared to the ones above (besides for the AGS/GIA cert differences, or is that a significant reason)?

Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
 
I don't like the JA stone, it is too rectangular for me. I don't like the 0.511 from WF as again it is too rectangular. I think either of the other two look fine, but I would wait for a second opinion.
