What do you think of this stone? Advice please

Hi! I am thinking of upgrading my engagement ring stone-- a 0.5 carat E VS1 from a local jeweler here in the SF Bay area. I went to look at different colored stones today to see about my color sensitivity. (I actually picked my first stone--basically the jeweler put out 2-3 at a time and I would pick 1 and I ended up with that one--it is really sparkly, but it was in 1995 so I don''t think the grading was as strict back then).

Anyways I was thinking of this one:
GIA
1.31 carat
I color (I couldn''t really notice much color even next to another E)
SI1
57% table
61.3%depth
34.5 degree crown angle
girdle thin to med
Polish, cut and symmetry very good
shows Hearts and Arrows

I don''t have info on the pavillion or the measurements but I''m sure I could get them if you need them.
Also it is goig for $7074 and I have about a $3200 trade in value.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Karen

So far it has potential! Can you get the pavillion angle? Also, if the vendor can get you an ideal scope image that would help too.

would be good to get the pav angle. nothing is better than seeing the stones, but in case you like to do a little technical cross check, this is another datapoint for round brilliants.
