I just purchased a 3 stone Leo diamond ring from Kay jewelers in a mall. I had them replace the center stone with a larger one and change the band to platinum. It is still a work in progress but I'm now having second thoughts about the price because of a comment I just noticed on the center stone IGI spec card. I am planning on getting an independent appraisal as soon as I pick it up.
Here are the specifics:
Total Cost = $7,400 plus tax
2 outside stones = 0.76 carat total weight
color = G - H
clarity = SI(1) / SI(2)
new center stone = 0.97 carat
color = near colorless (H)
clarity = VS(2)
polish/symmetry = good /good
treatment = none
Graded prior to mounting. CLOUD THROUGHOUT STONE (what does this mean??)
I'm brand new to this forum. Soliciting informed opinions on what I just did. Since there is a 90 day return policy, so there is hope if I'm convinced it's a bad deal.
