Thinking of treating myself. I have 1 in mind but looking for an unheated blue color change sapphire. 1 ct or more. thought I'd see if anyone has anything I haven't come across

Is it fair to say the blue in color change sapphires is not as desirable as the blue in blue sapphires, or at least much harder to come by?

Blue and purple is relatively common. Green and red is rarer?

Sorry I mean in terms of the color blue. They seem darker than just a regular blue sapphire. if that makes sense

here's the one I'm seriously considering https://gemfix.com/gems/sapphire-blue-11-1295

No I don't think they necessarily are darker. I have some colour change stones that are pretty close to medium blue in daylight.

Not a sapphire but I really like the look of this one -- https://loupetroop.com/listings/loo...one/2-dot-01ct-vietnamese-color-change-spinel. You may be able to ask if he'll discount the price, as it has been listed for ages. Ofcourse you may want to consider the tradeoff of having a final sale on loupetroop vs. something with the option of a good returns policy -- this is a non trivial advantage, especially with a colour change stone and a first time purchase.
