Hi,
Just wondering from those who've bought a stone from GOG - have you ever requested a megascope, sarin or any other type of report that is not on the diamond info page? If so, how long did it take for GOG to get those report for you? Is it normal for people to ask for these kind of report on top of the AGS/GIA certificate?
I am currently in the process of purchasing an AVR and the stone I'm buying only has ASET & DiamXray image on it's info page. I have requested for a megascope & a sarin report, as well as asking if the stone is AGS0 in cut and it's been awhile (requested about a month ago while deciding if we should buy and requested again after payments on the 16th)...
Is it normal to take this long to get these type of report? I'm just getting a bit nervous as I spend a lot of effort convincing my FI to buy from GOG because of how good their cut is etc etc (and how much I LOVE the AVR CUT!! haha ) instead of from Australia or from his cousin's friend who is a diamond cutter and can give us a great price....
It wouldn't be because they are having trouble obtaining a good report would they? I'm not sure what I would do if the report doesn't come back as ideal... seeing as how I'm overseas and can't really say "Stuff the reports!! I love the stone!! I'm buying it!!!" as I can't see it in person and therefore have to rely on the reports as tools
Meanwhile I'll try not to worry too much by asking questions here!!
Other questions:
- Is it normal for people to request for a megascope & a sarin report? I'm a bit confused as some stone has all the Isee2 report, megascope & Sarin...etc, while some don't.
- How long does it normally take to produce these kind of reports?
- Do the AVR & AVC only come in a AGS certificate?
- Also I think I saw posts from people who've bought a AVR/AVC also received a AGS Proprietary performace certificate (not sure), does that apply to all AVR & AVC? or just AVC? or just selective stones that are really well cut?
- when buying a stone from GOG, what should consumer expect to receive in the package?
- Can someone overseas (not from US) who bought from GOG share their experience? How did you find their service and were you well informed? Did you love your stone or had a change of mind?? Just anything you can share from your overseas buying experience
I think this thread/info would be really useful to future overseas buyers as I have been wondering all these things for a very long time, even after payments, but didn't feel like I should approach GOG with all these questions (I'm shy ). In the end I love the AVR too much to let these questions to stop me from buying but thinking back now this can be a bad decision if you are not informed.
Thanks in advance and for taking your time to read this
