That color an clarity is really high, especially for that size diamond. You could get a larger one if you go down a bit in color and clarity. And at that size even a .1ct increase is a lot in the way it looks. I is still near colorless and would let you go up a bit

You can gain a little size and still have a perfectly clean stone at G VS1:

I see a tiny black spot on table at 5 o'clock but thats fine as clarity is VVS1 so it is gonna be 100% eye clean. I saw the HCA score which is "2.0 - Very Good" not bad though but I personally prefer going for something who's score is be below 1.5 which is excellent.

I'd say go for it if you like it. Have you seen this stone in person? or do you have Ideal Scope/ ASET images of this stone?

I also like Nielseel's suggestion, go slightly lower on clarity and higher on carat size, I am sure you will find an eye clean diamond with a bigger size but in same prize.

I also second DS's suggestions. Personally I think it is a waste of money to pay for VVS1 on a 1/2 carat. Defintely go down in clarity but go up in size and cut.
