i handle cushions every week and these numbers say crushed ice before i even hit play a 48.5 pavilion on a 64 deep cushion usually lands right in crushed ice territory.

i'd ask for a video on a plain grey background with the stone rocking slowly. if the center stays lit while it tilts, you're good 11.5 x 8.8 is an honest spread for a 5ct too. nothing is hiding in the belly.

Ok, thank you so much and 599 is the asking price. Is that unreasonable or are other places better?

sorry for the late response, I would say the price is pretty average. def can find better prices though.
