The expansion compliments our Bricks and Mortar retail business with 3 decades of experience in both numismatics and with Diamonds and Diamond Jewelry at or below wholesale prices. We deal in all natural stones, no clarity or color enhancement of any kind. It is our hope that the precision and full disclosure approach we have brought to the online numismatic market will be a welcome development for active buyers of Diamonds. Offered here is an exquisite GIA certified 1.01ct Marquise Brilliant Natural Diamond at deeply discounted wholesale pricing.  Rapaport wholesale dealer price is over $6000 for this stone, retail is more than twice that.  This is a superbly cut diamond which has never been mounted. The Marquise is a legendary cut that is thought to have originally been commissioned by The Sun King, Louise XIV, who desired a diamond polished to the shape of the mouth of his mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour. This is an elegant fancy shape that flatters the hand and elongates the look of the finger. This particular Marquise boasts strictly graded VVS1 clarity, 2nd only to internally flawless. I have a GemScope and I am unable to see any flaws under extreme magnification. The Diamonds color is a strictly graded White H.  It has Very Good Polish and Good Symmetry as noted on the GIA Diamond Grading Report below; the diamond comes with complete GIA paperwork, including the report below.  The stone is beautifully cut, measuring 10.7mm x 5.01mm x 3.39mm.  The face up size of this 1.01ct stone is comparable to many larger sized stones. It should go without saying with GIA's strict industry leading grading standards that this stone is absolutely gorgeous given its impressive specs.  Feel free to reference this stone by scrolling down to see the image of the GIA report below or by going online at the following GIA provided link http://www.gia.edu/reportcheck/ under report#15316641. The faint fluorescence is a desirable attribute on a H color stone, making it appear icy white, for more on this topic see this GIA link http://www.gia.edu/library/4286/6285/faq_detail_page.cfm.  For added security the GIA report number is microscopically laser inscripted on the Diamonds girdle. This is a value added service provided by GIA, discussed in the 6th and 7th paragraphs here: http://www.gia.edu/newsroom/3720/17943/public_interest_articles_details.cfm. The inscription is so tiny you need a 20x loupe to read the report #, it is a very neat and much needed security based technology. We own the stone and it is in stock unlike many other volume dealers who may simply upload inventory from central databases for stones they don't actually own but hope to sell from a wholesalers often out of date inventory database. Visa, MC, AMEX, Paypal accepted from all.  Bank Drafts & Money Orders accepted as well but from North Americans only. Shipping costs & options found below in the Policies Table. 100% money back guarantee including your return shipping costs and any banking costs you may have incurred, please let me know within a week of receiving the stone if you wish to return it.   Tired of half baked or non existent return policies?......We were too so we created one with accountability as priority #1, that we hope has set this eBay account apart from the others. Even with this no hassle, all expenses paid return policy in effect over the last 3 years...less than 1/2 of 1% of our items are returned; our 100% feedback with 4.9/5 star ratings is reflective of this reality.
