*THIS IS A BIDORBUY CRAZY WEDNESDAY SALE, MEDIUM-HIGH VALUE ITEM, LASTING ONLY 24HRS, AND HAVING NO RESERVE WHATSOEVER! GOOD LUCK!*
A important maximum bid guidline for investors bidding on this auction: This particular sapphire is only an excellent short-term investment if purchased at 14% (+-R2047.00), or less, of current retail value. Currently 15.0-17.5% of retail value is what the average retail jeweller would pay gem dealers like ourselves, for a sapphire identical to, or very close to the size, colour, clarity, of this high value Bidorbuy promotional sapphire, when required for stock. A collector interested in a sapphire item such as this would pay slightly more, but will seldom exceed 20% of retail value, therefore, if this sapphire is purchased as a long-term investment one shouldn't bid more than a conservative 18% of retail value.
These sapphires are 100% natural, 100% UN-HEATED, and have undergone no treatment whatsoever. It has been estimated that unheated sapphires constitute less than 1% of all sapphires on the market today. Unheated sapphires increase in value every year, and have trade values many times higher than heated sapphires. When it comes to sapphires, collectors and investment buyers are to a large extent only interested in buying unheated specimens. A magnificent investment jewel. Ideal to set in an extravagant 18ct gold or Platinum jewellery item, or simply to appreciate as is in your rare jewel collection.
