you could get an F VS2 AGS 0 for around the same price.

No offence to GOG, but WF happens to have a bunch, including this one...

Thanks for the reply. Would trading a step in clarity for color make any real difference? I guess I''m trying to find the right balance for my money.

food for thought...

Thanks for the info. Would you consider this a good deal?

(sorry, thought you weren't finished...)

I could do a "Pricescope your diamond" search...(and that's all I might do). But, in this case...the comparables are themselves.

You'll see another contemporary thread about the price of a BN diamond. There may be some values...but generally...BN, WF, GOG...these diamonds are all pretty good values. When you get a bargain, you worry, because these guys (especially WF & GOG) know how to price them, so if it looks like you're getting a discount, you want to ask them why.

If you're going to an "out" vendor (not one of these)...then the question becomes substantive. What then do you do? Look at a comparable at G0G & WF, where you can get a diamond with comparable features also, knowing you're getting a quality diamond at a price without a considerable premium...and you start to compare.

Sorry...was this a lazy man's answer?
