I have been looking for my engagement ring for more than a month and i always want my rocks to be a G color.

So i always look for G with GIA certificate Heart & Arrow Cut (Triple Excellent) and my bf love IF or only inclusion at the bottom would be allow.

We have been looking for it and here are my choice;

G IF GIA 1.23 Triple Excellent H&A

G VVS2 GIA 1.40 Triple Excellent H&A

and yesterday i just saw an Isee2 Diamond but it is a H color

H 1.40 GIA VVS1 Triple Excellent H&A - the inclusion is only a small pinpoint in the bottom of the stone.

I falling for this diamond since i first saw it and my bf love it too. However, the price we have got is quite high comparing to other rocks i have a look earlier (price is only USD $2000 cheaper than a G color same size) and more expensive than normal H color same size. and the IF one is same price as G 1.40

So my Q is which stone is sound best with reasonable price and how many % mark up or mark down from rappaport price in case it is an Isee2 diamond?

 

Thanks,

 

AA

Dear Sunniese,

 

Firstly, I would like to congratulate on your engagement! I know this is an important decision for you, both financially and emotionally.

"isee2" provides incomparable Performance & Beauty together with an unique Buying Experience providing you all the necessary information to help in this important purchase.

Every isee2 diamond is polished by our master craftsmen and are guaranteed to score at least 9 out of 10 on the Beauty Evaluator. Each isee2 diamond has an invisibly marked ID number on the stone itself, with a matching birth certificate, guaranteeing the history of the diamond from mine to finger. You can be safe in the knowledge that your diamond has been ethically and legally mined.

I think you should ask to your isee2 retailer to demonstrate the performance of any diamond you are considering so you can see for yourself and compare with an isee2 diamonds.

For this nature’s beautiful treasure, I’m sure that your isee2 retailer will provide you with a reasonable price.

Hoping to have provided you with some help.

Thanks.

Thing is isee2 in my country is not popular and most of the people didn't know it even a gemologist.

There only a few retailers in my country and i just want to make sure that i will get the reasonable price.

Price is one thing to concern but still didn't main point as my bf provide me no fix budget (but i did have my budget for him) as long as i satisfy.

isee2 i found seem to be below my spec (on paper) but the rocks i see is very beautiful (i've forgot all spec i've) so if i decide to buy this stone it is cheaper than what i've plan to buy (isee2 is lower in color and clarity but i like it more)

Anyway, i'm quit satisfy with isee2 but just want to confirm the price ;)

as i have heard the selling price is +10% from rapaport and all retails cannot sell lower than this, is it true?

 Dear Sunniese,

The "Beauty" of a diamond lies in its "make". The Sparkle, Brilliancy, Scintillation are noticeable by the eye of the person.

Once set in a ring, no eye can recognise a "D" color from an "H" color, no eye can recognise a "IF" from an "SI" clarity.
Color, clarity are parameters of raw material, but you are about to purchase a beautiful manufactured product of "Love". The "Beauty" of your diamond will always be noticeable by everyone.

It is correct that there is a suggested minimum price at retail level per country.
Your "isee2" retailer will act ethicly with any "isee2" diamond.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,

James
