Up date from suppler

Our supply source has inspected the factory that faceted these stones and saw rough nobbies ready to cut. And when we ordered smaller size factory could not cut.

Buy they noted workers chipping small chips so we believe these stones are made from reconstituted smaller chips re melted and heated and than faceted as hard to find clean Obsidian of this quality and size.

Why are users outbidding themselves?

Automatic Bid icon
Automatic Bid

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.

When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.

Audit

The Gemstone Sheriff program allows our members to request an audit on any product, which is completed by an independent Gemologist who assesses the accuracy of the item description and pictures.
