This is a ~100CT whitish blue heated sapphire with copper vains running through it.  50 BTC obo. Buyer goes first: 1N4mjCMR6zizzg9jQJsnmNnb3Ys3gv5nve Please provide shipping address after payment. Just look at this thing, have you ever seen a rock quite like it?  |

Obvious scam, is obvious.
Do you have a certificate to prove it is what you say it is?
Can people do escrow?

Nope, but it is indeed an opaque sapphire approximately 100CT in weight, cabochon cut, with some copper vains and streaks running through it. It has white and blue patches, and it comes pre-oiled. I would escrow if you like yes. |

Heh. I have seen Toast, Captain Crunch, and even Nilla wafers go on ebay for thousands. I think/thought it was intended as a joke. |

Well, that could easily be sapphire. As long as it has the right chemical makeup and isn't red (which is ruby) or a kind of orangey pink (which is called padparadscha) it's called sapphire. Certainly doesn't mean it's worth 5k though. |

Haha, I love the budding gemologist comments This rock is indeed a sapphire, not all sapphires are blue and clear you know  |

If you need that kind of detail then you aren't the kind of buyer I am looking for. It's a rock.. sapphire in composition.. has some interesting silk/layer patterns/colors/inclusions. I can't say whether it is or isn't worth $5,000, but I do know it's possible to make a lot more than $5,000 with it using a simple process.. known to most gemologists. I'd do it myself but am lacking in the $600 capital needed to purchase a particular device. As far as good trades, I'm sorry I don't have a record of that sort of thing. |

I hope your rock it's authentic and you can prove that.
I do not think anyone would want to pay around $ 4,500 for a simple stone.
Good luck with your selling!

I think the OP was smoking some rock, right before he posted this. hes probably been flaming up the stone in hopes some crack was made by god and stored in the veins |
