Probably not, because even an expert would have a difficult time telling their grades apart without magnification. By definition, VS1 is a Clarity rating where minor inclusions are somewhat easily detected by a trained professional under 10X magnification.
Occasionally, the inclusion will be in a difficult-to-spot location. In most cases, though, the inclusion is large enough that it can be spotted quickly under magnification. While VS2 diamonds are usually eye-clean, some outliers exist, especially when it comes to larger-sized diamonds.
These outliers usually barely made it past the SI1 grade and have inclusions visible to the naked eye. This is why we stress the importance of reviewing magnified photographs and videos before any purchase. Because of the slight differences between VS1 and VS2, we recommend looking for eye-clean VS2 diamonds with a carat weight less than 2.

Why spend the extra money, unless you''re looking for a ''mind clean'' stone. Sorry upgradeable , if my info is mistaken. I heard that from a jeweller. I might have mis-understood him though. He told me that if the inclusion can be viewed from a top view, the clarity grading is VVS2. I then assumed that if the inclusion were on the outer edges, it would be VVS1. But that is not true, VVS1 means the inclusion can be viewed from the bottom of the diamond.
Not sure if this applies to VS2 and VS1 grading as well. Joined May 3, Messages 7, Thank you so much for all of the responses! This was extremely helpful. I know there are a million diamond guide sites out there that i''ve read, but you were all very helpful in laying it out in plain english!
