Diamond A looks better to my eyes.

Of these choices, I'd prefer diamond A. Have you checked other vendors? You could get a super ideal stone with the price of that diamond:

Thank you for the suggestions. I have looked else where but was finding JA prices were and selection, especially with HD video to be the easiest.

Is whiteflash your preferred vendor? And other suggestions?

Apart from Whiteflash my recommended vendor is Brian Gavin Diamonds. They ave recently upgraded their online diamond video technology so that you are getting the equivalent of James Allen types of videos. From what I have seen, it looks like they are progressively updating all of their listings with the new videos now.
