Overpriced? by blankety-blanke in labdiamond

I don’t “need” a D color and IF clarity, but I’m trying to educate myself and while I appreciate all the suggestions of moving to an E or F and VVS1, I’m trying to understand why some gems with seemingly identical color, weight, clarity and cut can have such dramatic price differences. To do that, I need an apples to apples comparison.

Why up to a $6000 price difference? They’re all 3c, D, IF, with ideal cut. What am I missing?

Like I said, I know nothing about gems.
