Stopped by a pawn shop today and saw an OEC I liked. It's 0.76 carat, 5.8mm, H colour, SI1 clarity. It's a pretty stone, very lively, possibly closer to a transition because it has a lower crown and it's cut is pretty even, not as chunky, but still has the open culet and chunkier pattern to it than a modern stone.
The asking price for it is £1,000, which is about $1,600. Is that good? It's been such a long time since I shopped for diamonds and I've never owned over over 0.50, much less over 0.75 carats!
I really like this stone, it's pretty. And there's a return period of 5 days so I can take it home and play with it. I don't want to buy it because I'm scared of it getting away, but I also don't want to miss it and regret it.
