Hello all, I was wondering if I could get a little help on deciding on some gems. I'm at the Gem Rock Fossil show in NJ and found a few nice things that I'm thinking about getting and could really use some help.
Firs one is a Montana Padparadscha sapphire. It seems to have a bit of a window but it it's a very pretty color and the guy is willing to give it to me for $350 (it's 400). What do you think? Does it have a window? Is it worth it?
Next is a jade ring. I mostly like the jade and don't care for the setting. The seller said it's real jadeite and the stones around it are diamonds but a couple weren't diamonds. It's 700 but he did his seller thing (felt like I was watching an infomercial) and said he would give me a special price of $300. Could it really be untreated jadeite for that price?
Thanks in advance!
