US guides
Lab-grown listings feel this less, but shoppers still anchor on the number.
Measure the decision in millimeters from the report. A 6.3 mm stone and a 6.5 mm stone are not a different piece of jewelry from across a table.
If the USD gap is large, buy the slightly smaller stone with the better cut.
Compare 0.90–1.10 carat in the catalog you actually mean to buy. Carat Mate ships the certified loose diamond and its lab report to United States addresses. Prices on the site are in USD. Wrong-item returns may be considered within 3 days of delivery, subject to review.
