That Sapphire is Gorgeous!!! I considered it, but FI saw Neatfreaks Asscher and that's what I am holding out for now...
I really hope someone here gets that stone though, it is stunning!

Jeff gave me a chance at it and I've been agonizing ever since. But I told him to let it go to someone who REALLY wants a round...



But even today, I had to e-mail him and wish him a FAST sale of that one as I am already experiencing remorse (not logical I know but I am getting impatient for mine!!!)...too bad it's not big enough to get him to recut it!!!


BTW I believe that the *real* reason for the delay in posting the Gemscoop had nothing to do with his camera: I think it was all of us hitting *click* *refresh* *click* *refresh* for the past week: probably crashed his site more than once!

hahaha, I have been waiting sooo impatiently for Jeff's newsletter to come out all week.  I totally showed hubby that sapphire this morning beofre I left for work.  Ohhhhh that color!  It's stunning.  Geez, they're all phenomenal... that spinel is calling my name too.  Alas, everything this time was too expensive or otherwise not really fitting into the plans that I already have right now.  I am praying a pricescoper picks up that sapphire though.  We need more pictures!

Crooked- I too NEED an asscher from Jeff.

Yeah, I understand you.

I just looked again. The two pairs of spinels are gone. I hope someone here bought them. They are beautiful.

The large spinel and that gorgeous sapphire are still there. If I didn't already have a sapphire ring, I would have snatched that baby up too.

I'm thinking a "girly" sort of ring, on days when I'm wearing pink or pastels.   I think it will be sparkly and fun to look at.

It's small, but fortunately I like my rings that way.

I have been waffling on this stone since Jeff offered it to me a month ago....I just couldn't make the round shape work....but the Leon setting has pears (or are they rounded traps??) on the sides - do you think that could work with a round versus a cushion/oval???

Lol. Think about this LS. Could you live with a round over a oval?

ETA: The Leon would be gorgeous with it. But you've been holding out for an oval for a long time now...and already turned this guy down.

I've been drawing up shapes and had actually asked Jeff to look for cushions as well.

I think I'm just going to see what he says in response to my query. For all I know someone else has *scooped* it up and then fate will have intervened.

But I've been agonizing over that stone for a month now.

Ok. Well don't jump on anything just because other people might grab it. Think about it for a bit first.

What's Jeff's return policy anyway?

What's Jeff's return policy anyway?

Ever since I saw the Leon I loved how the pears/traps changed the overal shape of the design. I can only really do that with a very FAT oval, cushion, or, a round. So that's been my dilemma: it's forced me to rethink the original replacement ER (which has been a very productive process for me, and I'm really happy to see the Leon cluster/halo.

We'll leave it to the Gods at this point....


Here is his return policy:
My main concern is ensuring that each customer is happy with his or her order. Therefore, I provide my customers with a one-week inspection period following every gemstone purchase. If, during that time, you decide that your stone is just not what you were expecting, simply return it to us for a refund. It is that simple. Once we receive the stone, your money will be refunded immediately (provided that the stone is not damaged in any way). Stones that have been damaged or altered may not be returned.
