What are your thoughts on this Asscher?

[wildstarUD]

Any thoughts on this Asscher? And how much would you expect to pay for it? Numbers look good to me other than the depth being a little too high? Any insight would be great. You guys are very experienced on here and I know that nothing can be told from numbers and that it's all on how it looks in your eyes, however I do think that some basic number ranges give you a good basic guideline in which to look for in diamonds. Thanks!!!

thin girdle is not ideal but in the right setting where its a bit protected its not an issue.
Which egl? If its not egl-usa personaly I wouldnt bother with it.
Get pictures is the next step.

 

[wildstarUD]

Hmm i think the EGL number starts with AX... dont know what that means

 

[strmrdr]

egl usa should looks like this if its a fairly recent report:

[wildstarUD]

I''m not sure if it had the EGL USA or not but I know it was some kind of EGL

 

[strmrdr]

here is the problem vvs2 carries a large premium and some egl labs vvs2 might get vs2 if sent too GIA.
EGL-usa is stricter than that.

 

[wildstarUD]

Yea I''ve heard that EGL USA is much more strict than the other EGLs. Assuming the figures are correct though, number wise the diamond looks good?

 

[Kaleigh]

Pics would be helpful. Hopefully it''s EGL USA....

 

[wildstarUD]

cant get pics until the weekend at the earliest and wont be able to find out whether its egl usa or not till then too.

 

[wildstarUD]

Just seeing what people think of the numbers before I consider the diamond. Anyone else have an opinion? thanks!

 

[strmrdr]

number wise its a little deep and the crown a little low for the total depth so it has a lot of weight in the pavilion.
I still could be a very nice asscher, pics are needed.
Id expect if its an egl-usa cert the price to be mid range for the size color clarity or maybe a bit higher.
I wouldnt pay top dollar for it.

 

[wildstarUD]

What would a mid-range price for it be? Like $8000?

 

[strmrdr]

$7500-$8k or so internet price.
little higher than that b&m
Id consider that high for any egl other than egl-usa.

 

[wildstarUD]

no pics yet but anyone else have any opinions on the diamond?
