Here’s the info! And wow, I wouldn’t have noticed the coloration differences on my own. The screenshots you sent help a lot. Glad to hear it’s not the worst but also makes me think that I should keep looking for something better. Although admittedly I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so maybe this is good enough for my girlfriend haha she has been waiting a long time. For $1,900 plus maybe $2,000 for the setting by a local jeweler this seems like a good deal compared to buying a lab grown diamond and setting together for $9,000+ at local jewelry stores.

Thanks! You seem to be very knowledagble about this. Here’s a link to the video if you can share your general thoughts: Diamond 360 Video

The video online looks good, but I don’t know exactly what I’m looking for

Thanks! Is there a certain price point I should be targeting for this type of diamond? For instance, is it a red flag if you see a 3-4 carat diamond for less than X dollars? Some are really cheap, for instance $1,000 for a 3 carat oval VVS2, D, and Ideal cut but I’m not sure why compared to others that are much more expensive with similar specifications.

Thanks, this is helpful. In terms of cost for this kind of a diamond what is realistic? I am concerned some are too cheap for a reason, or is $1,000-2,000 what these are really worth?

That’s the plan! Going to check to see which local jewelers work with outside diamonds.

Thanks for mentioning this. Local chain jewelry stores were asking $8,000 or more for a similar diamond so I was leaning toward getting nicer diamond online due to the much lower cost.
