I was wondering if you could give me your opinion on this diamond from B2C Jewels:

Price($): 4573.33
Lab Name: GIA

I’m trying to keep my budget below $4500 for a 1.20 carat, G or better, square-shaped cushion cut diamond and have been looking for quite a while now. Is this even possible? Thanks for your help!
That diamond is criminally bad. I’m curious what B2C said about that diamond (readers have given horrific feedback about them). The depth is off the charts bad.
Thanks for the info. I had an idea that diamond shopping would be difficult, but never this in-depth! How about this one from James Allen:
Essentially what I’m looking for is:
Budget: ~$5000.00
Carat: 1.2
Cut: Cushion
Color: H and better
Clarity: SI1 and better
Any further help from you would be much appreciated!
That diamond is much better. The depth is still on the high end, but its a beautiful diamond and a great value. You are getting good size for that budget, so I think its a winner.
