Looks good, hca=0.8 (within TIC range). How do you plan to set it?

It will be a six prong french pave tapering from thinner at the top to wider at the bottom.

From the info we have, that looks like a winner!

I will be able to see the images and diamond in-person possibly tomorrow or midweek

If you see it in person and you like it, you should be good to go.

All of the numbers and the cert check out, so you should be set on the paper end of the perspective.

Assuming you're getting a good price, you shouldn't have any hesitation!

It was $7000. Is that a fair price?

Looks good on paper - let us know how it looks in person!

Price is not out of line for a B&M store. Definitely in the right range where you wouldn't be dramatically 'overpaying.'

Assuming you like it in person, I would go for it!

I was recently in the market for a similar style diamond (ended up with a 1.1, G, VS1, GIA 3ex, 1.1HCA score). Paid about $7,600...so FWIW I would say $7000 is a pretty good price....

From everything I have seen that seems like a good price. I am looking for pretty much the same kind of stone.

That's good to know...in the same ballpark.

The stone you were looking at looked decent.

 

[dveeg]

Shouldn't be an issue at VS1 - but I would confirm with the vendor that the inclusions near/on the girdle will not affect durability.

 

[bbmustang]

Yeah I've looked at a few good stones, just too scared to pull the trigger just yet.

Where are you looking? (If you don't mind me asking)

I was looking at The Diamond Shopper who's local for me. I found him out of luck and he just so happened to have a nice diamond (hopefully).

If you talking to me I am looking at James Allen and Enchanted Diamonds mostly.

Have you tried Whiteflash and Brian Gavin Diamonds?

 

[bbmustang]

I tried whitefish but they didn't have anything with the quifications I want in my budget.

Sometimes its all about timing.
