Welcome!

It looks like a very nice diamond! That is great you will be able to see it in person, check carefully it is eyeclean to your standards and away from the store lights if possible, but it looks like you may have a winner!

That's good to hear!

I was also curious what people's thoughts were on the 35.5 crown / 75% lower half...

As long as its around 77 its fine.
If its under 75 it might be an issue.
View it in diffused lighting to check.
GIA rounds the lgf% to the nearest 5% and in that combo it can make a difference.
