Hello everyone,
As I continue my quest, I came across the Brilliant earth site. I began poking around and noticed they had "conflict free" stones...does that increase the price at all per ct.?
I noticed that they make you call in or fill out an online form to get a scanned GIA report of any of the stones you are interested in. I did, and they told me that they do this because they want to cut down on "people ripping off the grading reports and using them for other stones to sell"
Also does anyone have any experience with them as an online vendor?
Any information or wisdom to be shared would be great.... here are a couple that I looked at if any one wants to comment. I am sorry that the links are so incredibly long (let me know if there is a shorter way of letting you all check out the links???)
I requested the GIA reports to be e-mailed to me on Monday if more information is needed to make comments to me about them..
