I have been casually looking for a vintage stone to put in the popular Jamey Meyer setting (thanks Coati for the inspiration). Found this at a local pawn shop and would like some input from all you OEC fanciers.
It is uncertified 2.01ct, approx 7.9x8.1x5.05, color m/n/o. Said to be VS-1, I studied it with my loupe for over 1/2 hour and could not find anything at all. Really bright and sparkly, chunky facets, just like I am looking for. Whiter in person than the photo makes it look, the shop had yellow walls and incandescent lighting.
Am I correct that the irregular shape should not be a problem due to the bezel?
Price is $6,100, tax included. Is the price appropriate? The seller will allow a money back return for any reason so that will allow me to have it appraised. Comparable stones with EGL certs at Old World Diamonds all seem to be almost twice the price. Did I find a deal?? Am I missing something here?? What''cha all think??
