no, something is fishy. double check your numbers. how thick is the girdle? what are the dimensions?

 

[Linda74]

It is GIA
The dimensions are :
6.67 x 6.73 x 4.19

the girdle is thick to very thick

Price about $5,500

 

[Linda74]

Also It is an H VS1

I think I know the problem....too much weight in the girdle...reducing the size and making it appear more like a 1.10 diamond or so....other than that it looks pretty good....
the search continues.....

would you experts totally disregard it based on the information and price given?

Yes, it looks like that. But the price $5,500 is not bad even for a 1.10ct H/VS1 diamond. I am more concerned about the c/p combo (33.5 / 40.6) which is pretty shallow compared to those often discussed. Have you seen it? Any IS/ASET available? I may not disregard this diamond. But I would certainly not buy it without more information. Hopefully, an expert, which I am not, may chime in.
