Reasonable price for Old Mine cut?

I think you already got a response regarding inclusions. Do you have any updates/photos or videos of the stones you are considering?

Thank you for the IG recs! I've been perusing their feeds. For me, it's hard to tell by video. But the stones seem pretty nice, with better prices than brick & mortar and/or online retailers.

2.8, J/VS2. With lots of Kozibe effect.

Can you post the videos? I'm so excited to look!

Sorry I forgot the stone you were looking at. I think we've seen that a few times on IG and I think it's a good stone at a very good price point. Are you nearby or able to look in person? If not, feel free to ask the vendor for more videos!

It won't let me post a video. I've tried several times

Yes @BluePoppy I've seen it and I'd recommend it! It looks good.

Can you ask for a video with the stone resting between the fingers? It has a fair bit of leakage under the periphery of the table and you want to see how that will look when the pavilion is enclosed as it will be when set.

You want to see if these hazy areas I circled look dark and lifeless when viewed so the pavilion is enclosed. These “floating diamond” videos can really obscure leakage.
