Doree, following are some examples of similar stones being offered through the PriceScope search engine listed at the top of your menu.

These stones are all GIA "certed", which usually commands about a 7-8% premium over properly graded EGL stones.

To sell your stone, you'd knock off the 7-8%, and then some more to make it appear like a bargain. That's on the internet.

If you sold it yourself through your local classifieds, armed with a good appraisal, you might get a bit more. There's an excellent description of the options availabe to a private individual at Midwest Gem's site- http://www.midwestgems.com/sell20.html

Hey Rich, keep in mind that the stone is certified by EGL Israel

Hi Giangi,

Now I finally understand what the wink-smiley is used
for.

Thank you for all your help. I have been surfing more on this site and have learned a tremendous amount in less than 24 hours.

My report says EGL, but how do you know its from Isreal?
