RSA Gems specializes in cutting of untreated gemstones from rough we source from around the world. We purchase from trusted sources and test any rough if there is the slightest doubt regarding the gem type or any treatments that may have been applied. In fact, we won't cut any rough that has been treated with the exception of heat. Most gems are precision-cut by Loren Brown. Loren's gemstone designs have been published in the US Facet Guild newsletter and website. He designs a new cut about every other stone, ensuring one-of-a-kind results. Precision faceting results in a lower weight for the face-up size compared to commercial stones. Loren cuts for color, brilliance, and then weight compared to commercial stones where weight is everything (after all, you purchase stones by weight). So, if our prices are a little higher, consider the quality because that is what you are paying for. Returns: If you are not satisfied for any reason, return your purchase within 7 days of receipt for a full refund of your purchase price (not including shipping, or insurance). Buyer is responsible for shipping and insurance on all returns. We use USPS priority flat-rate boxes for most orders. The current rate is $8.30 for domestic. The first $50 of insurance is free. It is currently $2.00 per $100 after that and a limit of $5000 in the US. Some countries have lower limits on insurance. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Since the cost for both shipping and insurance varies by country, we will inform you of the cost for shipping options when we accept your bid. Combined orders only incur one shipping cost. Other shipping options are possible, inquire if needed.

Why are users outbidding themselves?

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

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