Well, if it helps any... I bought a .60ct F/VS2 and it cost me about 1,800.00. I got it through superbcert. The white light and sparkle was unbelievable! I would imagine yours would come in ata round 1,000.00

On many AGS reports there is a cut grade listed and this will tell you a bit more about the cut quality than what you’ve presented. The reflector image you presented looks quite nice but taken out of context those really aren’t really very helpful. The methodology of the photo makes a tremendous difference. Ask your source for an interpretation and then compare it with other photos taken by the same photographer.

You can use the tool at the top of the page titled ‘find online jeweler’ to look up similar stones and get a feel for pricing on similar stones, at least in the market here. These guys are a pretty competitive bunch. Even if you have no intention of buying online this can be a helpful benchmark.

Numbers & ideal-scope image have potential - but mine is a liberal position compared to Neil's conservative post. Usually I am the conservative, so I thought I'd vote liberal for once. I agree that you need to know the photo setup. The strength of the backlighting is critical to a telling image. Largely what we're seeing lines up with what we'd expect from those averaged numbers but the backlight may be a bit weak.

Is $963 a good buy for this really puny rock?

[denverappraiser]

Those are all good marks. The scale goes from 0-10 with 0 being the top grade!

Your price seems about right. As mentioned above, you can check the price yourself against the advertisements here and elsewhere. This is a VERY competitive business.
