Okay, this I can comment on
Keep in mind that this thread is about one or two diamonds within a collection that don't quite meet the standards that (some of us more precise) people are accustomed to... but that doesn't mean that the brand as a whole is at stake.
When it's time for you to upgrade, just focus on finding a diamond that meets the selection criteria that you're looking for...
This statement is true of all brands by the way. Never rely on brand name alone as a guarantee of cut quality because each diamond is unique and individual in its own way and will exhibit its own characteristics... and as noted, camera tilt and stone position is always a factor (that replacement photo could probably be improved with a little tweaking of focal depth and focus for example).
With that in mind, I wouldn't panic, rather I'd just be patient and wait for an upgrade with the right characteristics and optical properties to come along.
I think she meant Jon took AV with him and yet her stone was bought from GOG.
