Thoughts on this diamond (With Idealscope!)

[d4ng5y]

Hi all,

I've been doing a ton of research on diamonds recently and I'm beginning to pick out a few to purchase.

So far I've narrowed the field down to a few but this one is the only one with an Idealscope image so far.

What do you all think?

The idealscope looks great, the numbers look great.

I however prefer a lil bit smaller table and just a smaller depth to get more bang for my buck, but that is definitely a good stone.

Great! This might be the one....

What do you all think on the price of $6550 USD?

It seems a bit high compared to Blue nile for a similarly specced diamond?

The price looks in-line with other diamonds those specs at James Allen. Looks like it should be a nice stone.

You may have intended to say larger table? All things equal, the depth % goes up as the table % gets smaller. Or you may have meant what you wrote - which would necessitate going with a shallower pavilion / thinner girdle to offset more crown. No criticism, just trying to understand. A 56% table is already considered small by industry standards.
