How to get a Sarin Report

[typicalguy]

Ok, I''m confused here--one more thing to make this diamond-buying experience hectic.

First, it was figuring out whether to follow the "desired" table and depth ranges for RADIANTS, now it''s getting this report to compare to the GIA report.

What if the wholesaler (i.e. USA Cert.) is getting the diamond from a dealer not equipped with a Sarin machine? Should I demand a report anyway for peace of mind?

Thanks!

Howdy,
If the dealer that has the diamond doesn't have a sarin report on the diamond you are considering, he has a choice, either go next door to someone with a sarin machine and get a report for you or let you walk. There are other diamonds out there that are just as good, maybe better, and with sarin reports.
Don't try to match a sarin report with a GIA cert. The numbers will not match exactly, but they will be close.

Dimonbob, thanks!!!!

I have done just that--said I need one for a purchase of this size. Hopefully they'll provide one and I can post it here for a few thoughts.

Thanks for your help!
