There are 2 pretty decent 30-pointers D IFs from WhiteFlash

For those who prefer Colour and Clarity instead of Carat, do consider either of these diamonds from WhiteFlash:

2) https://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-3839987.htm?a_aid=myengringexp

The selling price is close to a F VS2 40-pointer, however, the 2 diamonds above fall under D IF. :) This means you will be getting the one of the rarest diamonds on earth.

My preference will be diamond 1, the 0.326ct because its Hearts & Arrows look slightly better - less bending on the tips of the Hearts. Also, there seem to be some "dirt" on the 0.325ct diamond. I am not sure whether it is inclusion or not, but given that this diamond is IF clarity, I would assume it may be dust. Even if it is really clarity, you may wonder why an IF diamond will have inclusion. This is because inclusion are measured at 10x magnification, while these images are shot at a higher magnification level, probably 35x. Lastly, do you notice the gap between the hearts and arrows at the 1 o'clock position of the 0.325ct? The gap is slightly more obvious than the others because it is that balanced between left and right. These are a few reasons why I put 0.326ct as my preference.

0.325 D IF
However, overall both of these diamonds are comparable in terms of performance. Also, the size is so close that it can become a decent pair of earrings.

If you ask me whether I will buy 0.326ct if I am looking for 30-pointers? If I want the highest level of Colour and Clarity, then yes. If you ask me whether I will by that 0.325ct? My answer is "I will consider" and look for alternatives first, probably a Black by Brian Gavin.

Nevertheless, I have to say these 2 diamonds to me are the better ACAs in terms of cut and light performance from WhiteFlash.

Update 30/05/2017
After looking into the 0.325ct further, I will say that I would buy the 0.325ct as well. You can however still consider Black by Brian Gavin as well. Why sudden change of thought? This is because after observing some Black by Brian Gavin diamonds, I noticed that even some of them will exhibit such slight imperfection, therefore, this 0.325ct should be taken into consideration as well. Also, probably this 0.325ct is overshadowed by that 0.326ct which is crazily gorgeous. Anyway, looking at this 0.325ct makes me appreciate its "slight imperfection" more.

So let's count:

M2U Forex Exchange Rate as of 26 May 2017 at 17:05:01: 4.3430

OR

There are also some misc. charges such as GST on freight, but I have excluded it because it is quite minimal @ < RM 50.

Good luck for those who are on the hunt for engagement ring!
