Both of them should be generally pretty diamonds, but personally I like specs that are super cherry. For example, I like the HCA to say EX/EX/EX/VG and be under 2.0. I also like a table between 54-57 and depth between 60-62. These stones are definitely not dogs in any sense and should be quite attractive, but there are better cut diamonds out there. If they are very well-priced they might be something to consider.
 
I bet they are both great looking stones and you should get a look at them or at least get some pictures if you can. Those will help us evaluate them a bit more. Good luck and welcome to PriceScope!!!
 
I think both of those would be very nice stones. As stated earlier maybe look for a couple more with a slightly smaller table and in the mentioned depth range. Those will make a great stone like you found look even sparklier. But again, you found great stones, we''re just cut fanatics on PS.
 
Could you get Idealscope images for these two diamonds? That would be useful if you could please.
