FLGIRL Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 I'm having a hard time findig a 2 ct, round, XXX stone in my price range. Is XXX overrated? Would I really be able to tell the difference with a VG quality, assuming I stayed with a G color, same clairty? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furqan Shafi Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 More than VG, i think you won't be able to tell G from H apart. So that's another direction you can look at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLGIRL Posted November 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 Good idea- what about going from Excellent to VG in cut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furqan Shafi Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) Going away from Ex can be tricky. There are many types of VGs. Many of them of not very desirable with girdles quite thick, crown too steep, pavillion too shallow/deep. Nicers VGs don't trade at a much discount compared to their Ex counterparts.

denverappraiser Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 Most of my new purchase clients are trying to maximize bling per dollar. That, of course, is not a synonym for 'better', but it's the way things get discussed online and in most jewelry stores. The result is that I find xxx to be overrated because it's not narrow enough, not that it's too narrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
