Title: c0ffer Gems - Website Update & Live BTC Pricing [NEW STONES]
Post by: c0ffer on October 02, 2012, 08:30:08 PM
Hi All,

I have just been in the process of adding new goodies to my website ;D

I will be adding a LOT of new inventory to the site over the next short while and will also be putting up random selections for auction here in the auctions section.

ALL of my stones are natural mined stones. Absolutely NO Syntehtics or imitations. These stones are genuine and ideal for jewelry or investment purposes.

I am still gathering value information and working on live BTC pricing but if you want to watch as the updates are added, feel free to check out the new look:

c0ffer.com - Gemstones for Bitcoins at Wholesale Prices (http://c0ffer.com)

Feel free to contact me through the site or via PM here if there is something you are interested in getting.
Requests are always welcome ;)

I'm getting ready to add pricing for stones as well as some new jewelry items featuring solid sterling silver settings.

As usual, all of my stones are 100% natural mined stones so you are not just getting something sparkly, you are also getting something that will increase in value over time.

I can also set stones in solid gold as well, but this is obviously more expensive so I am doing it by request at this point.

If there is something you are interested in getting, feel free to make a request, I have LOTS of inventory that is not on my site yet... The gift giving season rapidly approaches ;D


I also have a new site in the works for all of the fans of precious metals out there, the link is in my sig ;)

Hey, I'm tempted to buy some stones, but I don't know the first thing about how to deal with these things.  When you get a chance can you post some recommended reading--books, FAQs, links, etc.? 

What I'm looking for is pointers on basic grading principles, the relative value of one type of stone v. the other, how different cuts compare to one another, and the best ways to liquidate when the time comes... that sort of thing.

No problem at all, I have a page like this in progress and will be posting a link shortly.

In the meantime, to help in your valuation pursuits, the best site is:

http://www.gemval.com

This will give you a good baseline to help you determine values on stones.

I have posted several new stones at my site and all have pricing now.

More news to follow :D

Thanks for looking.

I have a box of what I believe to be rather low value gems, I don't know much about them.

I have some irregular ugly looking pearls, some labradorite(sp?), some raw cloudy rubies(not jewellery grade), synthetic rubies(faceted and ready to set), different beads that look mass produced, some tiny spinels, moonstones and those ugly dyed "rubies" and "saphires" that you get from India and a bunch of other stuff I do not recognize.

I would send them to of you if you pay me 2BTC once you get them(I think this is a low price, consider it an olive branch). If they are not even worth 2BTC then I will probably give them away. I have been told they are not worth much from a local lapidary(sp?) and I really cannot imagine what to do with them.

I'm getting ready to add some stones from a deeper portion of my inventory, these will be very exciting.

I am also planning on announcing (and re-announcing) some unusual items that I hope people will find as interesting as i do. ;)
