Yes, poor thing. Paypal is fine. They are just being cautious so as to meet EU regs.

Best of luck for your beloved.

Gorgeous Spess! I just love Richard''s cuts, and can''t wait to see this one in your hands!

[icekid]

Tomorrow?!?! Woohoo... I am so excited to hear what you think of it (you evil, money-grubbing doctor!

)

 

[cushioncutnut]

WoW! What a beautiful fireball! I bet you will be over the moon when you receive it!

 

[chrono]

Be patient - a couple more hours until daylight.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

Chrono, on the east coast maybe....it is just getting dark!!!!!

Icekid: Yep, I guess we both are .

cushioncutnut - I will let everyone know what I think.

Happy St. Patty''s day.

It''s gorgeous! How did I miss this thread?

 

[secondhandnews]

On the bright side, that is a beautiful color. Be sure to post pretty pictures.
Sorry to hear about the BF. {hugs} Hoping he will have luck with the job search.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

Thanks everyone,

I just checked the tracking number. They had the address wrong. They said they rescheduled the delivery. I really hope for today!!!!

 

[Linda W]

Me too, I can''t wait to see that beautiful sparkler

A mini thread jack, but I think this will interest LtlFC. Richard Homer is at Wink''s this week for a round table. Wink posted an amazing video of a spess oval. It looked like a sunburst. I can''t post a link to the video for some reason, but there is also a shot of it in his gallery here.

I''m not usually a fan of orange, but Richard Homer''s mandarin garnets are just delicious.
This one literally makes me drool (and crave a clementine). If I had a few hundred to spare, I''d snap it up, lol.
Juicy goodness

Can''t wait to see pics of yours!

 

[mercoledi]

Bummer about the wrong adress, c''mon stone! I hope you get it while you still have sunlight!

 

[Harriet]

I''m waiting patiently along with you.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

I think I know which one you were talking about. I asked about it, it was a bit out of my price range . He told me he was going to a gem show this week.

No stone . I work tomorrow!!!!!! I might have to get my BF to wait for it. Hmmm...I have to find a way to bribe him.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

Makingthegrade,

That was the other one I was considering that was in my price range

 

[LtlFirecracker]

Sorry to get all your hopes up. They got the wrong city (????). They are sending to my place tomorrow. I am working till about 4. So hopefully (if I can get BF to hang out), I will have time to take pics b/f it gets dark. Grrrr...

 

[chrono]

What? Wrong city? Gee, what a pain. I''m so impatient too.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

I am not a happy person about this. But I should have known. I always have some sort of problem with UPS. I have bad UPS Karma.

I am thinking I am going to bribe the BF with mexican food. He will do anything for mexican food.

 

[Harriet]

Is it here yet?

 

[MakingTheGrade]

Hehe, I think we''ll all excited to see pics!

I actually had a really hard time getting my package from USPS as well. Apparently if you miss the first attempted delivery, they just stop trying? Anyways, my fiance went to get the package for me, but the address on the back of the notice they left was wrong, so he had to hunt down the office. And then after a long wait in line, they almost didn''t let him pick up the package because the delivery guy hadn''t written any info on the delivery slip (like my name or address...) Bah. Thankfully my fiance is a charmer and got the package (with my pads!) for me

Hopefully your sweety will be home to sign for it! Looking forward to pics.

 

[chrono]

Any news update? Have you seen it yet?

 

[LtlFirecracker]

Just got it, attempted to snap some pics. Loading them up right now

 

[MakingTheGrade]

OOO!!!! Exciting!!!

Haha, I''m watching my lecture on childbirth right now ::shudder:: I am so not going to be an OBGYN, lol. Please, show me something pretty to wipe out the scary images I just saw!

 

[LtlFirecracker]

Tell me what you think. I can''t totally get the color on camera, there is more orange and less yellow. This stone looks darker in artificial light for sure. The concave facets are cool.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

Complementary colors
