ACS Sale

[Kismet]

So did someone here get that milky aquamarine cabochon? If so, fess up!

ETA:

In the interest of full disclosure, I picked up the Andalusite Earrings, the Burmese Jadite Earrings, the rainbow moonstone set and the rubelite tourmaline (the one cut by Ben Kho).

 

[FrekeChild]

I didn't get anything because I'm broke (due to Dan Stair's amethyst) but I'm wondering who picked up what, because I saw a LOT of stones, that I've been keeping my eye on, are SOLD.

So if you bought something--SPILL IT!!!

ETA: And now I'm going to go look at Kismet's new goodies...

ETAA: Why does she still have my Namibian Tourmaline up there?! I've had it for MONTHS now!

ME TOO! but it''s probably a good thing there was a lot sold already, or I would have gotten myself into trouble...

I was working nights this week, so I just woke up and many are already gone. Still, I did pick up the 1.38 round pink barry spinel. I''ve been eye-ing it for a while! And I was quite tempted by a number of other stones, but managed to resist (for now???)

By the time I got there, all the stones I had my eye on were gone (or still way out of my budget!)

*sigh*

Ditto.
BTW, what''s up with Dan Stair? Fab stuff keeps cycling through the "what I''m cutting now" images, but we''ve gone a month without a new drop. I wanna see! For example:

 

[FrekeChild]

Oh icekid, I''m so happy you got that stone. I''ve been oogling it for a while. What are you going to do with it?

Does this mean Barbara is going to have a huge drop in September in time for the holiday season?

 

[geckodani]

I''ve had itchy trigger finger with the sale, LOL.

Must.... hold.... back....

 

[FrekeChild]

Hah! I''ve just found out my money situation is WAY better than I thought it was, and now I''m restraining myself. I need someone to block ACS from my comp....

HI:

Post pics!

Alas, my jewellery budget for the year has already been spent....

cheers--Sharon

I love looking at her website and checked it out, and almost with relief the pieces I liked the most, sold. My jewelry budget was spent like the first day of the year, so not spposed to be buying anything anyways. I would be sorely tempted though if she got another round chrome tourmaline in my price range.

All right, who bought the 1.29ct blue spinel?

Wow it''s like Christmas. Beautiful stuff!!! You know you do have to take some ear shots for us now (when you get them), don''t you?

 

[fafa]

Kismet, you''ve got "my" moonstones.

Congrats on your purchases. Please post more picture when you get them.

HI:

Fabu! What are your plans for this stone?

I am totally craving that honey colored rose carved Jadite ring but I must say NO!

cheers--Sharon

You''re the one that got "my" stone! I had my finger on the keyboard for that one but I thought better of it (I''m waiting for a new garnet from the cutter)

 

[omieluv]

Kismet & Icekid - what great purchases! Cannot wait to see what you do with all of those pretty gems!

Sharon...... just do it! you know you want to...

Not sure about my spinel yet... I just (today!) also got a new tsavorite so I''ve got a lot of thinking to do on both fronts.

 

[Fly Girl]

o.k, I just picked up a pair of beautiful Barry Bridgestock Mozambique beryl baguettes. (Say that several times quickly!) The 1.92 ct aquamarine and the 2.42 ct helidor. Had to resist making it a three-fer, because I really wanted the 17.70 ct electric blue topaz. It''s still available, folks!

 

[marcy]

Rats for being out of town until today. Everything I looked at is "Sold". I can''t wait to see everyone''s treasures as they roll in and show up on PS.
