It looks like a nice stone it scores excellent in all catagories on the HCA.
Light Return Excellent
Fire Excellent
Scintillation Excellent
Spread
or diameter for weight Excellent
Total Visual Performance 0.9 - Excellent
within TIC range


I would call and place the diamond on hold as soon as you can to avoid someone else getting it while you are thinking about it.

Oh I forgot I would also have them look at it to make sure it is eyeclean

Looks god to me...agree, have them verify it's eye clean.

IS image looks good. I would have them retake the hearts image. Ask if eye clean to your standards. Excellent spread on that stone...faces up like a 1.22 ct.

Here are some other options, although if you're not sensitive to color your choice is excellent.

If you explain your definition of eyeclean to the vendor andvthey OK that first stone then I wouldn't worry about the SI2.

Personally, I agree. I have a VS2 stone and, if I were to do it again, I'd get the lowest clarity eye-clean; I don't want to pay for something I can't see.
