Which one to choose from these two stones?

[ps17a]

I am debating between the following two rounds:

1. 2.06 G vs2:

2. 1.87 G vs2:
http://www.gia.edu/cs/Satellite?reportno=1162571853&childpagename=GIA%2FPage%2FReportCheck&pagename=GIA%2FDispatcher&c=Page&cid=1355954554547

The first one seems to be slightly better cut, but i am not sure about the inclusion, the inclusions seem to cluster into a location on the table. I couldn't see anything with naked eye ,but could see the inclusion with 10X loop.

The second one is slightly smaller, and not as optimally cut as the first one. also the girdle is thin to slightly thick. Also it is about 5-6K cheaper.

They are from different stores, so I didn't get a chance to compare side by side.

Any thoughts? I really appreciate.

The 2 ct stone has the most optimal numbers, but really, without seeing magnified images of the stones and idealscope images, we are just guessing. It is hard when you can't compare them side by side. Would you like some price comps? How much were these?

Thanks for advice. I do not have the images either. I only saw them in local stores. Is the inclusion on 2ct one a red flag?

The 2ct one is in the high 20K and the 1.8 ct one is in low 20K. Difference is about 6K.

The inclusion on the 2 ct one is only a problem if you can see it without magnification.

It is fine if your preference is to buy locally, but I think you could do better on price. Here is one at a good price.
