Would you buy this diamond with EGL?

Hi Taylor

Personally for a fancy colour stone I would want a GIA Coloured Diamond Report, have you seen this one in person and like it?

no I haven''t seen it.....only a video and no other pics. I emailed vendor and ask about pics and GiA. They apparently don''t have the stone inhouse and have no other pics.

See if they can provide any further info for you, personally I would not accept a stone without a GIA Colored Diamond Grading Report, so my advice is to look for a stone with that report, or you could ask the seller if they would submit this stone to GIA....The quality of the colour is everything with a fancy colour diamond, we have no way of knowing that quality on so little information, so insist on a lot more information before you commit in any way to this diamond. That a GIA CD Report was not sought in the first place makes me wonder about the colour itself, as this could increase the selling price and value of the stone considerably.
