Hi,
I am a newbie and considering this 1.25 ct, I color, SI1 GIA 3X RB diamond. It scores 1.6 on HCA. The vender seller is not able to provide the idealscope however. My concern is: based on the picture the seller sent me, it somehow looked a little bit cloudy on some parts but again I don't know if its the lighting or just the quality of the picture...
The drew picture on GIA report to show the clarity looks very clean for a SI1. Could anyone give me some feedback of this diamond?? I'd be VERY VERY grateful!!

It's possible that light performance is diminished somewhat by the clouds. Not possible to tell for sure from the photos as it could be the lighting or other factor. But since Cloud is the grade setting inclusion (listed first on keys to symbols) and mention of additional clouds under comments, it could be an issue. You will need to see it in person and satisfy yourself.
 
Looks pretty decent eye clean I SI1. I'd say go for it if you like it. Cloud is barely noticeable.

I think its the reflection of tweezers due to which you see the milky effect at the edges. Ask the vendor to get it checked by their gemologist and provide you with their expert advice. Also, make sure to check their return policy.

Good Luck :)
 
Thank you both so much for the helpful comments! :)
