certification

[hoching]

Hi, I''m just wondering if all diamonds have a certificate? do they all have indication on the stone to prove they are real? Also, what is blood diamond? Is blood diamond the only diamonds that do no thave indication on it? :S thank you!!!

No, all diamonds are not certified. A certificate by a reliable grading lab such as AGS or GIA protects the consumer in that you have independent verification of the stone's weight, color, clarity, and cut. These are the only two labs I would personally trust.

I'll let someone else answer your question about blood diamonds, but I will tell you that the vendors on PS do not have them!

some info on "blood" diamonds and the like

Agian, no PS vendors have anything to do with "conflict diamonds"
