Disclosure is vital, but is the value much different in that size range? I really don't know, sorry if it's a dumb question.

that's not a dumb question atall........this seems to be an "as grown" so, no further HPHT treatment means no additional costs BUT, methink in that size the natural stuff is still cheaper..........actually HPHT is more scary than CVD in many ways. New improved and cheaper presses are producing bigger and bigger Xls in bunch per cycles.........for not to say about the melee...........
