Opinions of this diamond?

[adrienneg]

Good morning! I am finally ready to buy!! and I decided to purchase a loose diamond on Blue Nile because although I know it''s less of a hassle buying from Whiteflash, etc, I found the pricing to be so much more different. And since Blue Nile offers a refund policy, I figured, it''s worth to order and see. Plus if I can get something in the .75 - 1 carat range in a good cut & clarity (2 most important factors,... well I guess 3, carat, cut and clarity), I wouldn''t want to upgrade for 10 years or so.

Please give me your advice on this stone I found and tell me if you think it''s a good deal or if I can find something in the VS range that''s .75 carats or more for $2K or less...

Thanks so much for your feedback.

Also, I am in LOVE with the Legato sleek line solitaire setting from Whiteflash. Will they let me buy only the setting if they set the diamond for me? And would the .75 carats look too small? What choices do I have for wedding bands?

Okay, enough questions... I get a little carried away sometimes. Thanks in advance for your help.

That looks like a nice diamond you are considering, I would check the girdle being medium to very thick concerning the very thick part, probably a mistake as it is an AGS0.

ETA - I think that is a typo of BN's with the very thick part of the girdle as the actual highest measurement on the AGS report does not fall within the very thick range, it should be fine but check with BN anyway.

Check also that the strong blue fluorescence doesn't make the diamond look hazy in some lighting, this is rare but best to check.

With the setting you would need to ask WF whether this is an option, they are very helpful and will be pleased to advise you.
