Is it worth to buy? Now, that is a good question.

- A lot of jewelers would tell you that it is the best because of it being graded 3EX by GIA.
- A lot of Pricescopers would tell you that with a HCA of 1.9, you are in a good place.
- Other PS-ers would tell you that you are overshooting in color and clarity, and that you could probably save money settling with a lower clarity and possibly color.
- I would personally consider it as a potential re-cut, and see it as a high 90-pointer, of which I know that the E-VVS2-combo is not the most popular with my clients.

In any case, all the above mentioned people will consider the stone 'worth to buy' for some price. The figure will be different for all, I guess.

All joking aside, you have a good basis in this diamond. Now, it depends on what you are actually looking for in color, clarity and most importantly cut-quality.

Live long,

The reply by Paul-Antwerp is right on....so just my 2 cents, my choice would be to look for an Ideal cut diamond, in a lower color clarity .....An Ideal cut in G H I color all of these will look white in a setting, VS2 is a nice sweet spot in clarity even a SI1 if eye clean as I look at it, in many cases you can then buy a larger stone.
