I came across their website the other day and was quite intrigued. They appear to offer sound advice, and even offer a service where you present them with specs of a diamond you''re looking at and they email you back with an idea of you how much you would expect to pay for a stone of that quality. Of course it was just a price comparison, based on the specs you give, no other advice.
I tried it out and they said I would be paying 15.69% under the value he calculated, based on the description given, and that it was a good price - which was nice. Don''t know how they arrive at their calculation - Rapaport perhaps?
Apart from the odd advert and a page of links, I don''t know how else they are able to support this service. No books or non-warped diamonds offered for sale.
Could this really be someone who is trying to help other folk? Am I missing something here? Or am I just being cynical in my old age...
