A Huge Favor...

Hi Guys!!

I know this is a lot to ask, but if anyone "happens" to be on Blue Nile could you look at a stone for me?? For the life of me I can''t figure out how to attach a link. Anyway, it''s in the Signature Round Collection. It''s the 2.43 carat, VS1, D color. I''ve had my eye on it for weeks now. I know I can return it if it''s not right, but I hate to go through all that. Also, can you peek at the AGS Cert and the GCAL Report and give me your honest expert feedback? Your opinions really mean a lot to me!!!

Is this the one?

It looks fine, if you''re running out of places to spend your money. $55,000? I don''t want to judge because it''s not my business, but isn''t that slightly excessive?

Yes, I know it''s a lot. But I''ve waited a long, long time for this. I''ve budgeted and saved, saved, saved. This is REALLY a priority for me, and I''m willing to sacrifice in other areas (cars, etc.) for a beautiful diamond. I just wanted the expert''s opinions on it. I trust PS''ers more than anything.

Well I''m no expert, but you did find a nice one!! Congrats, and no need to justify your purchase. You only live once.

Please come back and show us pics of the finished product please!

Ohhhh.........thanks Ellen. I''ll definitely be sending pictures (once I can figure out how in the heck to do it)!!

Kathleen, I agree that it is a nice stone, but I''d be hard pressed to pay $20,000 more for it than this one:
