Hi, I''m new to this so forgive me for repetition. I am looking at a diamond ring to buy. The choices are:
a) a 52 pt E VS2 diamond that looks very sparkly and is set in white gold and white gold band. (EGL certified)which is $4200.
b)a 43 pt H VS1 diamond that doesn''t look so sparkly but is set in white gold with yellow gold band. (GIA certified)which is $3800.
c)a 50 pt G VS1 diamond that looks very sparkly and is set in white gold with white gold band. (GIA certified)which is $5600.
How do I work out which is better value? The one I like the look of best is (a) but I am not sure if I''m being foolish and should go for one of the GIA certified ones which are not as high a colour but better clarity, and I''m not sure if I''m being unfair to (b) because of its yellow gold band because I actually intend to have my choice reset in a yellow gold band anyway (but obviously keeping white gold setting).
What''s your advice?
Regards,
Jade Greene
