Thoughts on this Emerald Cut Diamond (1.8ct, VS2, $7.2k)

[Billapendent]

Hi all - first time buyer here seeking some thoughts/feedback

My girlfriend said she really likes this diamond she saw on Instagram (@TDDiamonds). I messaged the seller for details. They provided the price ($7,200) and GIA info - pic included. Price doesn't include a setting.

Here's a link to a quick video on Instagram:

Personally you can do better, so that's a nay.

I can see why she likes it, photo is so pretty.
However I do have to agree with @Ceilimom that you can do better.

I would ask for a video slightly further away. I'm not sure if the camera is blocking the light from the stone causing it to look dark under the table.
(I have a feeling thats what is going on but I would want to know for sure).

The video needs to be far enough away so the center doesnt look dark and that you can see the steps under the table flashing on/off.

Edit...I think the price is fairly competitive.

Ohhh I see what you mean about the video lighting.
