What is an excellent price to pay for 1ct old mine cut of L-M color?

I found a L-M color old mine cut in VS clarity.
What would be an excellent price for this light yellow diamond given that it is visually pleasing?
Thank you!

Excellent price would be ~$1500. I would expect it to be priced at about $2000 though.

I saw a 1.10 go for $1500 on eBay last week.

You have good source for your OEC Uppy!

1500$ for a VS one carat diamond is reaaaaaaly low! Even if it''s a L-M!

2500$ IS a really good price for me and I would expect to pay 3500$.

wow!! yes I too want to know where you go shopping Upgradable!!

are we only talking ebay here??

Unfortunately EBay can be either a lucky find, or a very unlucky experience with stress and uncertainty. But it is true that generally speaking, you can only find exceptional price on EBay.

My sources are ebay or the secondary market, so prices I am willing to pay are not even close to retail. Yep, that''s my secret.
