I've found an amazing HUGE step-cut diamond that I'm really interested in. But I'd need to raise the funds for it.

I'd like to sell these 3 diamonds, which I'm currently not wearing:

- The loose 3.02ct F VS2 is going to re-certified by GIA, since I bought it several years ago, and it might possibly end up with a VS1 certification (everyone who's looked at it has commented on how clean it is). It is GIA triple Excellent.

- The 2.656ct H Si2 BGD Sign is now set in an Emilya setting - I'd like to sell the ring intact if possible.

- The 1.52ct G Si1 is GIA-certed and is also loose.

I'm not desperate to sell these; but would like to, to put towards the funds for this other honker if possible.

Would anyone care to chime in and advise me of what would be appropriate asking prices? For this purpose, let's assume the 3.02ct comes back still as a VS2.

Comp for the 3 ct F VS2 GIA XXX is about $65k, so I'd list at around 15% off which would be around $55k and you can decide your bottom amount.

2.65 H SI2 AGS 000 (I assume), BG Sig....couldn't find a great comp. This one is larger at 2.74 (GIA XXX) but is not designated as H&A. So you may need an appraisal on this one, but this amount might give you an idea...$26k minus 15%

1.52 G SI1, XXVG...around $11k minus 15%

DS,

Great to "see" you! :wavey: How are you?

Many thanks for your research and suggestions.

Wow, diamond prices have really gone down huh? Since I last looked. Must be the slow-down in Chinese demand (b/c of their slowing economy).

Hmm....I may sit on the 3ct for a while. Maybe if it comes back as a VS1.

I think I'll list the 2.656ct. Yes, that one is a BGD Sign H&A cut, AGS000. Would I be able to price in a premium (over the GIA you found) for it being a BGD Sign and if so, how much? There's also the VC Emilya setting it's in (I think I paid around USD5k, would need to check my invoice).

The 1.52ct is also much cheaper than I'd thought. But I might be able to take a hit, b/c the loss would be proportionately smaller.

Thank you for your kind help.

Btw, I hope you decide to keep your AVR. It's too beautiful!!

How about I base my 2.656ct off this one? Mine is an H as opposed to its I colour and an Si2 vs its Si1. It's priced by BGD at 32-33k:
http://www.briangavindiamonds.com/diamonds/diamond-details/2.600-i-si1-round-diamond-ags-104068650001

Or this one, a 2.57ct H Si1, priced by BGD at 37-38k. How much would I need to take off for mine being one clarity grade lower?

Hi, Phoenix,

I may be interested in the 1.52 G. Do you still have my email address?

Hi Phoenix..
Here's my LT list page. Either of those listings will have my email address. I might be interested in the 2.65 as well. Give me a shout.

Hi Judy,

Great!

I'm not sure why, but I can't seem to find your listing on LT.

Could you possibly link me to another one of your LT listings pls? Or maybe I should create a LT listing for my stones (?)

Hey LLJsmom!! :wavey:

How are you?

Yes, it's a fire-cracker, b/c of its smaller table. I used to have lots of pics on my old laptop which died and I hadn't saved the pics. I know I know!!

I'll try and take some later.

Thank you.

Re: Feelers- 3.02ct F VS2, 2.656ct H Si2 in Emilya, 1.52ct G

I may have to sell my prized BGD Sign H&A studs if I can't sell the 3ct at the price-point I'd like (since the step cut I'm eyeing is quite expensive). Attached is the cert for the 2.374ct G Si1. I have the cert for the 2.358ct H SI1 , but would need to pdf and upload it.

Re comps, I can't seem to find exact ones; the closest are as follows. I don't know yet exactly how to price mine and again, would welcome suggestions. Am thinking USD30k each, since these are BGD Sign H&A diamonds. If anyone is interested in the pair together, I'd take off 1k or so and would include the Leon Mege settings too.

2.322ct G VS2, priced by BGD at 36-37k
http://www.briangavindiamonds.com/diamonds/diamond-details/2.322-g-vs2-round-diamond-bfg-19852

Again, the 2.57ct H Si1, priced at 37-38k

I'm in Singapore. :))

Craig, Judy said she might be interested in the 2.65. I think I'd better give her first dibs. If she ends up not getting it, I may ship it to Grace at Jewels by Grace, who's based in LA. Would you be able to make arrangements with Grace for viewing?

I'll keep you posted here.

Also, in terms of pricing, I'll talk to Grace and see what she suggests.

Hi Phoenix,

I messaged you a few hours ago via LT. If that doesnt come through, I'm probably going to list something to get me email to you.

Here is another try at my link..

When I clicked my link, it worked.

Hi Judy,

When I click on your link, it says the page doesn't exist! That is weird!

AND I'm not getting my LT messages either! Double weird! I'm beginning to think it's me and am doing something silly, lol!!

Anyhow, would you mind contacting Grace at JbG, and ask her to give you my email addy? I'll be sending the items to her anyway (I'll absorb commission/charges to her). That might be the only way we could communicate. I'll send her an email now.

Many thanks.

Thanks Phoenix. I am in Bangalore for a week. Darn it would be nice to see. LA is close to home in the U.S. so I can see it there.

Craig,

Fab! I'll for sure let you know if Judy doesn't buy the ring.

Thanks.

Hi Phoenix,

Just sent Grace an email. So freaking frustrating. I guess I'll have to complete my listings & start over. Another option for you, list an email addy. Make one up just for your sale items & that way if LT messaging doesn't work ( and providing your page loads & everyone can see it) then they can contact you directly. ;-)

Hi Phoenix,

I am in the same country as you... I was not able to link to your loupetroop to search for your email. I have some questions that I will like to ask offline, if you do not mind. :)
