Take someone with you who knows about diamonds. You need to know what you are looking for when you look through the loop for inclusions. Also, familiarize your self with grading chart for color and clarity. For that price, I'd say you could probably get a good stone at 3/4 karot. There is not that much difference between 3/4 and a full carot. I have 3/4, but it is set in a high mount, so it looks bigger.
