If the final price is 3600 Euro, then yes, it’s a great price.

Thanks Mike looks good and I appreciate your help.

The quote I have gotten includes a 18Ct White Gold Crown ring ( Tiffany Style ) and when you take the 10% discount off it’s a good bit cheaper for the same ring without the Fluor.

Is it worth a punt?

I think you’d do much better with something like this:

That stone would be identical to the eye to any F VS2. There’s no issues here with fluorescence either. And even with a ring and VAT (there’s free shipping), I think this would still end up being notably cheaper than what you were quoted.

You can move down to SI1 or SI2 no problem. I’m sure the jewelers were showing you I1s and I2s and telling you they were SIs.

Here’s a great option: http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/G-SI2-Premium-Cut-Round-Diamond-1439574.asp

Much more stone for the money!
