Another FCD PSA: Taliadiam on Ebay

[Indylady]

Another FCD PSA; this vendor has taken photos from Leibish and Diamonds by Lauren. I contacted both Leibish and Diamonds by Lauren to see if these diamonds were somehow cross-listed, but they were not, and both neither vendor had any affiliation with Taliadiam. I also seem to see pictures from Reddiam as well, but I have no idea if they have any relationship apart from a similar Ebay handle.

Kenny, thank you for bringing up the other vendor. I would have piggy-backed onto your thread, but since that conversation has evolved, it seemed more appropriate to start a new thread.


The first is a photo from Taliadiam, the second is a photo from Diamonds By Lauren.

Finding the common pictures is very easy--either download the image to your computer and upload to an image search, or right click and hit "search Google for this image"; for some reason, the manual download system seems more reliable for me.

This is listed as an HPHT diamond on another site, can't remember where--the other site also listed the diamond as being significantly larger http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fancy-light-brown-diamond-0-79ct-100-natural-/261405807136?pt=Loose_Diamonds&hash=item3cdd001220


This is listed http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fancy-Pink-diamond-0-17ct-100-natural-untreated-/261406410498?pt=Loose_Diamonds&hash=item3cdd094702
And listed as sold on Asteria Diamonds http://www.asteriadiamonds.com/en/oval-fancy-intense-pink-purple-diamond-as18695.html

Hi IndyLady,

Thanks for the heads up - I've seen a lot of gemstone photos from vendors here get posted on various sites and ebay - with others claiming them as their own.

I do know that Reddiam has a storefront, both overseas and on ebay. There are a few threads on here that talk about their quality, and I don't believe they are in the same category. Some users have bought quite a few FCD's from them.

I thought so too. So, that's another vendor to add to the list. What's alarming is that the vendor claims to supply GIA certs too, and has messaged me "additional photos" through Ebay--but all of those additional photos come from the other vendor websites. How is it that they have such positive ratings?
