Hi Ajhazzard! Welcome on this forum!

The stone you've selected sounds like a stunning one

. Is it a H&A?

The price sounds good too, altough it's slightly on the high side.

As Barry said, Abazias is a well known vendor, so you're safe! Can you post the item number? I've used abazias search but this stone isn't listed...

The stone sounds very lovely! Great scores on the HCA. Congrats.

The price is very inline with what other online vendors are selling similar stones for...WhiteFlash has a .74 G VS2 excellent HCA scorer for $3200 and another similar sized/detailed stone excellent HCA scorer for $3300...so your quoted price sounds great, esp for a VS1 quality.

Make sure the return policy is adequate so you can get the diamond checked out when it arrives by an independent appraiser and you should have no problems!! Good luck!

Yes it is a H&A and I have just purchased it. Audrey and Felicia at Abazias have been very helpful and I have enjoyed dealing with them. A big thank-you to them both.

Cheers, ajhazzard
