How much difference between 0.60 carat and 0.70 carat

[soames]

I am looking at purchasing a 0.60 square cushion hearts & arrows. How visible do you think the difference would be between a 0.60 and a 0.70. It''s a big jump in price if I keep the same color and clarity.

What are the measurements of the two sizes?

The 0.60 carat measures 4.83x4.82x3.38

The 0.70 carat measures 5.00x5.00x3.59

I am thinking that the difference is so slight I probably wouldn''t see it. What do you think?

If you held them side by side you *migth* be able to detect .2mm. Barely. If you squint. And stick out your tongue.

Save the money and go for the .60.

I have found that I am able to notice a visible difference at .07 mm so I think .2 would stick out to me. Maybe if you could find a .65 and meet if halfway in the middle? Anything under .70 should save you a chunk of cash, as that''s where the price sheets transition.

Ha ha! Yep-that was the direction I was leaning in. Nice to get a second opinion. Thanks.
