There is a seller on ebay selling high priced gem rings. They have good feedback and buyers seem to be buying their items. Here is a list of items that have been selling

http://www.ebay.com/sch/Mens-Jewelr...V9n4%3D&_ssn=oceanbreak72&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc

A typical listing of this seller has a picture of an appraisal in the picture scroll


http://www.ebay.com/itm/14KT-Yellow...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

It states that the appraisal is by Graduate Gemologist dated 8.16.2007

Is Graduate Gemologist a known company or is all of this made up?

A graduate gemmologist is not a company or lab, its an individual who graduated from somewhere that teaches gemmology. In the appraisal he/she giving his/her opinion. I cant check the links now but if this is an in house GG then they work for the store, meaning they can write something to make the product seem better than it is rather than give their real opinion. Im not saying they all do this.

I'd want a lab report when buying something pricey, not a GG's opinion.

Also, if you haven't already, go to toolhaus.org and type in the seller's name to get more detailed feedback info. Good luck!
