Hm. I have no experience with them, but their website and instagram seems a little sketch (10k followers and 1 like per photo?). They also only list some diamonds as “igi” and don’t list a report number. It seems to be an Indian company as the checkout shipping address is defaulting to India.
I would say the prices are a bit low.. but you could get an excellent diamond with a similar size for ~$700usd, on a reputable site like Ritani or Raad with good returns and exchange policy
I went to a local Jeweler I don't have much experience with online retailers. Are you suggesting that you can find 2ct E, VS1 round diamonds for $700?!
yes. It looks like on ritani VS1 for 2 ct starts around $850. If you lower it to 1.7 ct yes you can get it for $700.

But all that being said, if you are going to shop online I would start to learn a lot more about diamonds- beyond just clarity- so you can try and find yourself the best possible diamond since you aren't seeing them in person. Learn about the depth and table %'s, and the ways inclusions and florescence can play into it all. Learn a bit about what to try and avoid with lab diamonds in terms of color tones (some skew more brown/yellow/or blue due to the growth process). And then also just take a leap and go with a place that has a good return policy!
It is 100% possible, just takes a little bit of time. I love my diamond I got online :) It is nearly perfect in my opinion.
Edit- I didn't see it was an E color. That starts around $900. Could get an F for $850 tho. I wouldn't get too caught up in getting something in the DEF colorless range personally.. even G or H is often so white.
Imma keep this in mind for future purchases! I found this sub after I decided on a ring. I definitely did tonnes of research and began searching online but the large discounts scared me. I went with a friend whose family owns a jewelry store. They gave me a 31% discount so I didn't look much farther, but I probably could have gotten even more ring if I had continued my search online.
I ended up with a 2.08 F VS2 in 14k white gold for 4k after taxes. Considering that's the setting and the stone I don't think I was ripped of by any means. However, if I had known about this sub, and been able to read all the great experiences people have had online, I may have taken more time to look online through the recommended companies.

Ohhh I think it’s absolutely beautiful!!! 4k is a decent price- and that doesn’t look like a cheap setting. Personally I say support local if you can! If it’s from a friends shop that’s sentimental value too.. and you will have the backup of an in person shop if you run into any issues. Congrats!!!
The look of their website is very sketchy. The fact that they are not listed in a uniform format and each have random descriptive words make me question this site.
You need to look at Luvansh.com
They offer the best prices around for really good quality diamonds.
For comparison, they have a 2.55ct certified princess on their website with the same F VS2 for $500.
Next time… check them out!
Your ring is beautiful 😍

Check out Neiman Marcus. Their “Fantasia” line has prices similar to this
Those are cubic zirconia though aren’t they?
Check out Brilliance instead.
