from what I've been told they are 100% eye clean.Niel|1368803141|3449001 said:If they are both 100% eye clean I'd go with the cheapest
TC1987|1368804810|3449028 said:The .804 F SI1 has one or two inclusions directly over an arrow or arrowhead, and I think that is not great because it's going to be seen as a cloud or spec or something. You see them on the ASET and Ideal-Scope images. I'd be a bit wary of that one until I'd looked at it in person.
All diamonds are graded face-up. If you don't want to see anything from the sides, that is an additional condition to have the vendor inspect for and make certain of before you buy it.
eta: WF definition of eye clean from their site = No inclusions visible face-up at a distance of 8-10 inches in natural lighting to a person with 20/20 vision. So make sure you and they are on the same page regarding what's acceptable.

so basically as long as this can only be seen under a microscope it should be fine right? Would it affect anything else like the sparkle? If it is true that the stone is 100% eye clean for my standards (which is viewing from really close), everything should be ok right?

I find it strange that it doesn't show up in the AGS report. These are intensely magnified pictures though, so it could still be eye clean. The only way to be 100% sure is, well to look at it in person. That's where your WF rep and their gemologist comes into play. I tend to be trusting of WF reps. They proactively told me that a stone I was looking at had a inclusion visible from 6 inches, even though it was within their eye clean standards.

Do you think maybe just so you'd feel better maybe just go with another one?ballercaller|1368821654|3449204 said:interesting... do you think this would only be noticeable if you are really looking for it?
The rep told me that since it's on a darker spot it would be like 'black on black' and not be noticeable. but from what you are saying this isnt the case

ballercaller said:So I obtained a couple more pics of the stone. Overall i guess it looks ok.
One thing on the hand photo, one of the arrows is silver while the rest are dark. guessing it has something to do with camera angle or reflection?
