After 6 months..

[simplysplendid]

of waiting at 2am (my timezone) for Barry''s site to open in some months, considering and discussing with Barry before pulling the trigger in one of the month and to have the stone I was interested in sold and just last week considering a beautiful blue-green tourmaline (it was already in my cart) and when I was ready to make the purchase 3 hours later, it was also sold, I finally got this earlier today:

Congratulations! I have no doubt that you''re wait was well worth it! I think that stone is going to be a jaw dropper!

Congratulations SS, I am pretty sure it''s going to be gorgeous, gorgeous

. I am really envious because I was going to buy this one for my mum but I was at work and didn''t really want my colleagues to see me buying gemstones online. Luckily I haven''t told her about this stone else I don''t know what''ll happen to me if she knew I missed out!

Please post more photos if you can, I''ll really love to see your plans for this beauty. Thank you.

Aw man, I saw this one last night and wished I could see it IRL. I guess I''ll get the next best thing if you post photos! Congratulations on a great looking stone!

Ooh that looks luscious

Can''t wait to see/hear how it looks IRL

Hey,
Hope things are alright. I''ve been wondering about you. May we see more pictures? I''d like a look at the blue too.

 

[marcy]

It''s gorgeous. I love the color.

 

[mariedtiger]

Congratulations! This will surely be perfection itself. I was admiring it as well

 

[Adah]

*****drool****** You have a stunner there

That''s a pretty blue green tourmaline. Bright and not dark at all.

Thanks everyone! Barry confirmed that he has shipped out the gem and it should take a week or so to get to me.

Hello! Thank you for asking.. I have been lurking, been too busy with a new apartment and shopping for bathroom fittings and hardly anytime left for gemstones

. I wanted to purchase a couple of gems from Barry last week, added the items to my cart and my hubby said "let''s go look at bathroom fittings". Three hours later when I am back from the trip, the gems were sold

. The good thing is, they was sold to some lovely PSers. Another good thing was we purchased some really good fittings for a good discount and of course, my hubby says it is good for the wallet that the gemstones were sold

.

All the men in my house are asleep now (my 2 boys and DH

) so I have a little time for a coffee, peanut butter sandwich and pricescope. This week has been madness for me as my domestic helper has just gones back to the Philippines for a two weeks holiday and meanwhile I am the cook, cleaner and babysitter

.

They say everything happens for a reason and so I think the stone you finally ended up buying was well worth the wait. Can''t wait to see live pics of it!

I''m glad you were finally able to get one. It''s a beauty!!
