Can someone please explain to me why this hearts and arrows diamond is lower priced than the same size, color, clarity "good" cut one, from the same vendor? I was told both stones are eye-clean. is the price on the H&A too good to be true? Why would the less-well-cut stone be more expensive??

Another question about clarity- does anyone have a SI1 stone that you can see the inclusions with the naked eye? i''m really worried about that. what exactly does "eye-clean" mean?? would I be safer going with this stone:
Item Code AGS-5508209
Shape A Cut Above H&A

The first one (the $555 one) was recommended to me, over the third one (the H color VS2)... It''s scary to do this without being able to see the stones!! Any recommendations, based on the numbers?? I''m leaning towards the first one, but want to make sure the price isn''t too good to be true. thanks!!!
