minga is this and EGL diamond?

the HCA isn''t as accurate when using %''s for the crown and pavillion instead of the angle''s.

also, have you seen it?

 

[mingagreen]

Yes mrssalvo it is an EGL, is that a no no lab!!! I thought it was GIA but found out today it was EGL. I have seen it twice and it is nice looking

 

[mrssalvo]

well, it gets a 2.4 on the HCA which says it's worth buying if the price is right. Do keep in mind the %'s are less accurate. EGL is known to be a little more loose on grading so the J could actually be a GIA or AGS K or L. If you've seen it though and it speaks to you then it might be the one for you, just make sure your paying what it's worth and not more.

you can search EGL here and form your own opinion though

thanks so much mrssalvo, I am taking my time and deciding, I might just continue to save and keep this 1.15 for now.

 

[mrssalvo]

well that''s smart to take your time and don''t settle. did you talk to pearlmans about returning the stone you have?
