Hello all,

I recently put this diamond on reserve, and was looking to make the purchase. I'm looking for a yellow diamond for an engagement ring, and I came across the stone in the link below. I put it on reserve, and was probably going to pull the trigger. I was going to put the diamond in a setting similar to the one below, but probably doing a micropave:

Concerns:

1. The first three stone pics are pretty hazy, and don't pop all that much. The fifth one where it is in the lighting in a small case shows it sparkling, and I know that the lighting is probably specifically setup for that. My concerns are that it won't be a good looking stone, and will have a haziness that will detract from the sparkle.


My questions:

1. What are your thoughts on the stone? Would you purchase?
2. What is a good price for a stone of this quality?
3. Any ideas what it may appraise for with the setting I showed ballpark? I know there are a lot of factors.


Thanks so much for looking!
