Why you should buy a lab created gem from me 1. Many sellers don't state explicitly whether the gems they are selling are natural or man made. So you never know for sure what you are buying, and you may stay awake at night wondering whether you have been ripped off or not. When you buy a lab-created gem from me, there is no agonizing, because you know exactly what you are getting. 2. Lab created gems are made under carefully controlled conditions, so they have much better colour and clarity than most natural gems. A natural gem of this size and quality is very rare, and would cost you many thousands of Rands. If you just want a good-looking gem, and are not worried about its origin, then this is for you! 3. Quite often the cut on a natural gem is compromised by the cutter's need to minimize wastage, and maximize weight (and therefore profit) on a gemstone. So the gemstone might have a pavilion or a crown that is too shallow or too deep, making the gem lifeless. The man who cuts and polishes lab created gems doesn't have to worry about these things, and can cut the optimum shape. On a lab created gem, the material is cheap, but the cutting and polishing is relatively expensive. On a natural gem, the material is expensive, and the cutting and polishing is relatively cheap. 4. Quite often gems are mined in areas where there is revolution or war. These gems are used to finance the conflict, and are therefore known as conflict gems. When you buy a lab-created gem, you are not funding any conflict! |

Shipping All items are sent by S.A. Post Office Registered Mail. I will combine items at no extra cost. Certificates I don't offer a certificate because my gems are not particularly valuable. The courier charges and the lab report would cost more than the gems are worth. In my opinion, most valuation certificates are wildly optimistic and hopelessly unrealistic about the estimated retail value of the appraised gem. Try selling it for the quoted value! The only reason for quoting such an inflated value is to make the buyer feel good about buying the gem at a price much below "market value", i.e. the buyer thinks he is getting a bargain Payment BoBPay EFT only.
