What we look for

Specifics matter.

  • GIA reports — the gold-standard, attracting our top tier of pricing
  • IGI and HRD reports — accepted at full trade pricing
  • EGL reports — accepted with a small adjustment vs GIA equivalent
  • Triple-Ex (Excellent cut, polish, symmetry) commanding a premium
  • Nil to Faint fluorescence preferred; medium / strong priced accordingly

How we price it

Transparent fundamentals.

Certified stones price closest to Rapaport benchmarks. We discount for fluorescence, sub-Triple-Ex cut grades, and any treatments noted on the report. Our offer is always shown alongside the working — you see exactly how we got there.

Why people sell

An ordinary, often emotional decision.

Sellers of certified stones are usually clear about value — they want the most efficient route from stone to cash without a retail markdown. Direct-trade buyers like us are designed for exactly that.

Common questions

FAQs.

GIA is the global gold standard and attracts our highest pricing tier. IGI and HRD are accepted at full trade pricing. EGL reports are accepted but typically value a stone 1–2 colour and clarity grades higher than GIA would, so our pricing reflects the GIA equivalent.

Yes. We verify every report against the issuing laboratory’s online registry before making a final offer. This protects both of us.

Most laboratories will issue a duplicate for a small fee. Or send the stone in and we’ll grade it ourselves — we’re GIA members so the result will be reliable, just not portable.
