Hi there, so with my loose stones that I need to get certificiates for, can you get anything for under $100 a stone?
GIA and IGI and the hang all seem to be around $200.
With other labs you may think you are saving money up front but your diamond will be worth less (probably way more than $200) because other labs may be seen as more lenient on grading.
It will be easier to sell with a GIA or AGS report.
If you're in the US and planning to sell you may as well shell out for GIA (or AGS if you're not a consumer), since consumers in the US are trained into the GIA IS BEST school of thought (or AGS in more informed circles), and that makes you, as a vendor of GIA/AGS stones, reliable, trustworthy, and someone known to be selling "high quality goods".
