DO NOT sell your diamonds, emeralds, etc. to this place. The "gemologist" will not give you a good price. I went in there, got an appraisal. Took my rings back and was told less than 1/2 price on the stones than before with the gemologist claiming "I have never seen these rings before". . .. are you kidding .. ? since you never saw these rings then I guess that allows you to give me 1/2 the price by claiming you never saw my rings before therefore you don't look like a con artist when you want to offer me a much lower price than before? This is called a "bait and switch" tactic folks. Look it up if you don't know what it means. I am not talking about selling gold .. like getting an estimate when the gold market is up and then coming back and getting a lower quote because the gold market is down. This is straight up jewels. I don't like getting treated like that as it builds a "non trust" issue. I will find another place to sell my diamonds.
