@kambingkoh, want to seek your views on purchasing GIA diamonds from online-only / physical channels and also pick your brain on how you evaluate the options.

1) I am shopping at places like ZCOVA, D&P and Lavin, Lavin is the only one which procures them already but their price points are quite high. An as alternative, is purchasing from ZCOVA or D&P safe? I worry if the diamond arrives and there's major flaws to it, and the D&P salesperson says there is no buyer's remorse to the process. Just wondering if the transportation is secure & online pictures give accurate view of the diamond quality.

2) I have my eyes on several options here:

0.90CT/E/VS2/FAINT/VSNBL067
0.90CT/E/VS2/FAINT/VSMXR024

These two are Triple Ex, similar Cut + Color + Clarity, and have identical prices - both don't have significant impurities so I'm quite keen to know how to pick btwn the two.

Aside from that, I saw some higher-priced options (more exp by RM1k) that don't look as good
0.90CT/D/VS2/NONE/WSMFJ053
0.90CT/F/VS2/NONE/WSMQW023

The issues with these 2 diamonds are the dark spots that are quite obvious when I check the 360 report. Is the price premium due to NO fluorescence or the Color? In your opinion, which of these will be the best options?

Thank you so much in advance!
