Air 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2007 dat time when i buy never thot wanna trade in so dun bother with the terms and conditions. the sales lady might have mentioned to me before but i din take any notice i guess is a rude icon lah... u use it when u tink little of what the other person is saying... else the name of the icon wont put as "rolleyes" liaoz..i got the sapphire from Lee Hwa. coz most shops uses diamonds together with colour stones to add in the sparkle. i only want the colour stones without diamonds. colour stones have many types... some are darker in colour and u wont see the sparkle in the stone.the 1 i got is only 0.3+ carat and it cost close to $800. another 1+ carat sapphire only cost $800+. just for illustration, the 1+ carat sapphire is darker meaning the colour is not that nice that's y it cost ard same price but for a bigger carat. btw, there's no cert for colour stones. Hey I like coloured stones too! I think they are more unique than diamonds...diamonds too common liao....gems are more interesting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
