[crosado]

Hi,
I am shopping early for Christmas and and I am looking to buy a pair of moissanite earrings. I am looking
for 1ct+ and good price. No matter if set or loose stone but of course need the pair. I am first time
moissanite shopper do I need all the advice I could get.

I found these on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=86077&item=4938180954&rd=1

but not sure if these are good prices to start my research with.. I was hoping for a bit larger
stone at about same price.

any feedback/hints/tips etc. are greatly appreciated.

That really isn''t a bad price for 2 carat total weight moissanite earrings. The 1 carat stones alone are about $205 each. The cost for the settings and fees to mount the stones would bring you to at least $489. I would caution you about going larger with moissanite stones. They really start to take on a noticeable green tint as you get larger in size. I bought a pair of 1 carat total weight earrings from the company you mentioned (.50 each) and paid about $175 for the pair. They were on sale at the time. Simple white gold 4 prong. A very believeable and wearable size for everyday. Anything larger and I would start thinking that the wearer had on CZ''s. Not a big deal, but just my .02
