Can anyone give me an idea of what I should ask(or could get) for these on Diamond Bistro?

The first one is a K VS1/VS2 1.02ct clarity enhanced radiant. It is slightly yellow but a beautiful stone.

The second one is a 1.52ct F/G I1 laser drilled round brilliant. Some inclusions visible to the naked eye, but no black carbon.

Thanks for any help! If anyone from here is interested please let me know. Also on another board that I am a member of new members typically mail first before money is paid...would this be a safe option on the bistro if the buyer has great feedback?

as for your question, i would only do that if the member is a VERY trusted member.

Try going on this website, they have tons of diamonds, put in a search for diamonds of the same quality to get some ideas. IMO I would get money first then send stones.

I have looked at a couple places(that one in particular today) but how do I factor in the clarity enhancement of the radiant and the drilling of the round?

I will try to set up a account on pricescope.

Okay, I'm done dreaming now. \:D I think drilled and clarity enhanced are usually priced more modestly. If I rememeber correctly the treatments make the diamonds more fragile.

i looked that up and did not think the drilling would affect the durability of the stone simply because the holes are so small. The only issue I know of with the clarity enhancement is that they can not be in high temperatures. i could be completely wrong about this though too.

Unless these were given to you; perhaps whatever you paid for them might be a starting point as to get an idea. Unless, you believe that you overpaid for them. Otherwise, check with a local jeweler. My best jeweler around will only charge $50 per item for a very thorough written appraisal with a photo. Checking out Ebay's sold items is another good idea.

What was the type of enhancement on the radiant? Were they in this condition when you received them, or did you have the improvements done at a jeweler.

I guess, there are a lot of factors to consider.
