Please help, I'm proposing next week and deciding between these two diamonds. Which one should I buy, what is the better deal? The discernible difference to me is that diamond 2 is .19 ct bigger, $500 less, but the table width is worse (59% to 56%).

Measurements: 8.16-8.12 x 5.08mm

Do you have images of the stones? Who graded them? report #? Do you have or can you get idealscope images?

I'd like to know too, C. $12k for 2ct G's is too good to be true!

neither....the price is too good to be true for its grade.. :!:

my guess is...there are either no lab report or maybe a EGL European report.
 
Huge kudos to Titan and Dancing Fire, for their very correct replies.

I was running some tests on diamonds proposed on PS, and found that I would gladly pay about 10K more for these stones, if the information on the stones were trustworthy.

Being so far out of the ballpark, one can even wonder if the stones actually are diamonds.

Live long,
 
Yep must be EGL or could be per carat price.
