After what has seemed like a loooong search, I have successfully narrowed my choices down to two diamonds! Yay!
I am fairly committed to BGD because they are the only ones I can find with a setting that I know my girlfriend will love - the classic truth (I have very specific details haha).
Initially I was looking at:
0.544ct, H, SI1 eye-clean
http://www.briangavindiamonds.com/diamond/diamond-detail/?product_id=AGS-104051366051
Dimensions: 5.23x5.26mm
$1810
However I recently came across:
0.504, F, SI1 eye-clean
http://www.briangavindiamonds.com/diamond/diamond-detail/?product_id=AGS-104052884022
Dimensions: 5.14x5.20mm
$1899
I'm assuming the size difference won't be noticeable (especially when not in a direct comparison and once mounted).
The carat weight is a little less on the 2nd one, but it's a bump up to F from H. I was told the H faces up very white (due to its ideal cut). I would have thought going up to an F color would cost more - I guess it's limited due to the drop in weight? Since it's still a comparable size (I'm not planning on trying to resell so the actual weight isn't a huge issue) does this look to be a good deal? $90 seems like a small amount to pay to get to an F. Is the F priced lower than I would expect due to due to sometime beside carat weight that I should be concerned with or does this seem typical? A good deal? Probably (not) worth it? I don't see many differences in the diamonds but I'm no expert! I'm so excited!
Just having trouble picking... recommendations?
