Please need HELP with this diamond

[raresauce]

Can this forum please comment on the quality of this diamond based on te pictures. This diamond is 1 carat and is G colour, SI1 clarity and excellent cut. Right now thats all i know. I would just like comments on the quality. Not about how it should be graded by GIA etc etc. Would you buy this dismond based on the pictures and info for $2700. Please advise

Just based on your pics? No. Looks too tinted for my taste. Can't say a thing about the clarity based on these pics. Too fuzzy for my poor vision.

The girdle looks thick, it looks pretty included to me and looks like there is leakage under the table.

Is this for you? I know some want to get to that magic 1 carat mark, but if you compromise on cut and buy a poorly cut diamond it will not face up as big as a well cut 1 carat and the brightness, sparkle will be less than that of a well cut diamond.

No, I wouldn't even consider it. It is not G SI1 for $2700, so why even mention the grading? I would not buy a 1 ct stone for $2700 ever, because it would have to be a very poor quality stone. The lowest I'd recommend is a reliably certified 1 ct J SI1, which would be like these:

If you max budget is $2700, then you can go under 1 ct and get a nicely cut stone:

People convert to GIA and its broadly accepted classifications to level-set -- when the "info," as you put it, is suspect or the grading lab less than credible. GIA grading more reliably maps to value and, from what I've seen during my limited time on PS, diamond mispricings are not widespread.

The good folks on this forum appear to have already provided you with the tools to select a nice diamond...

I understand you like to buy a value diamond just based on appearance.
As long as it looks good, you like it, and price is right, why not? who cares about reports and proportions.

BUT, most members here won't buy a diamond based on a questionable report and unprofessionally taken photos.
That's SIMPLY NOT how we shop.

Going back to your question

"Would you buy this dismond based on the pictures and info for $2700. Please advise"
Never. It looks unimpressive even from a distance

I am gonna assume this is more like H SI2 Very Good Cut, if graded by GIA. (I am being very generous)
I get can a brand new at $3300. a questionable product at $2700?? not a chance.

Nobody here will give you a "GO" on a product like this, or products you have asked us about. If anyone does, it will be an very irresponsible recommendation.
