Please help me find a diamond

[Julia_T]

I live in Sweden and a friend of my will go to US tomorrow. I am going to order a diamond and she will pick it up.
I will order from the internet and I neep help.

I would wan''t a 0.3 brilliant. D-F, IF-vvs1. Ideal cut and sertification.
One that has the best fire and scintillation for a round brilliant diamond.
I wan''t onte that my jeweler would be quite impressed with the light return and qualite.
It''s also important that it''s not a conflict diamond.

Is this a good diamond. Can you found a better to a better price?

HI:

Welcome. May I ask what your budget is? I ask because I too have been looking for stones in this size range (starting at .30 points), D or E color, IF or VVS1 clarity, ideal cut. The prices I have found are not lower than the Blue Nile stone you posted a link to, which, incidentally, is a VVS2.

I do not know the origin of these stones (regarding conflict free diamonds...)

Nice Ice has a .33 E VVS1 AGS cert: (first stone on list).

Whiteflash has two stones, .30 E VVS1 and .39 D VVS1 in their Expert Selection category, both AGS cert:

Good Old Gold has a .37 D IF H & A with a GIA cert:

And a few in James Allen's virtual lists I did not post.......

ETA: Dutton Diamonds has a Canadian Diamond (non conflict), Cut by Infinity, . 36 E VVS2, AGS (0) cert:
