The first one on your list sounds like the best buy from the three as long as they all have gia certs on them.

Hi, it looks like you are sticking with a 1.0ct round brilliant. May I ask why you have chosen such a high color grade for your diamond? If it is personal prefrence, then that is fine, but you could possibly get a larger diamond if you go down a color grade, and possibly a clarity grade, as long as it is an "eye-clean" stone.

First of all make sure it is a GIA lab report on the stones, Secondly I would go for a better cut grade. You can get an excellent cut grade for $300 more which is definitely worth it. A very good cut grade lots of times is not really very good.
