I just saw this update tonight and it looks like many of the gems have already sold!

I "bought" one but the stone looks like it's still available so I don't know if I've gotten it. Any PSers purchased from this update?

I think I am in the same boat. I "bought" a gem but did not get a confirmation email of purchase or receipt? I only got a PayPal confirmation that I sent the $. Is that what happened to you? From this forum though, many are saying how nice Dana is. So I trust it will be sorted out one way or another. :) No worries.

I bought something and got a PayPal email then a few hours later got an email from him apologizing that it didn't send an email, that he was shipping it, and that his website was undergoing some changes which is why I didn't get a confirmation email

Oooh! What did you buy Niel?
The blue zircon

This one? I like :love:

Yeah, I only wanted it for an e/w pendant so I wasn't too worried about about the inclusions

I received a confirmation email today and I got the stone! It mentioned an issue with the web site and I guess this slowed down the updating of the stone's status. I wasn't concerned about Master Cut Gems, I've bought from them before and they are lovely to deal with. I was worried that another PSer beat me to this stone. :saint:

Here is Dana's photo of the stone

Good on you. Hey ho, probably a good idea not being able to access their site, this way, I cannot spend any money!

The zircon came and I couldn't be happier with it ::)

It's dusk here and overcast, double whammy! Lol. I'll get photos as soon as I can. Ideally tomorrow. I think I might send it to CVB and have her make a simple sliding basket to turn it into a pendant.

I browsed their site while in the office, and good job too, as I would have spent a few pennies had I been able to access it from home.

Niel: your zircon looks even better in your photos than in Mastercut's! Nice stone.

Thanks. I'm trying to make sure they are close to what I'm seeing. I took them outside on a sunny day but under shade and /or while the sun tucked under a cloud. You can compare it with my k diamond ring and my very lovely silver grey spinel

Very, very nice! For the life of me, I can't figure out why for such a consistently lovely gemstone the price is not much higher per carat! I can't believe the price won't be increasing in the future - zircon is just too nice of a stone not to.

Thanks for your comments on the color Acinom, you have a real eye for colors so I appreciate your input. =)
