I inherited my father's gemstones...1000's of them. He was a gemologist. Most are cut / faceted semi precious stones, but I do have some cabochons. I have high grade stones and medium grade stones. I have round, oval, pear cut, teardrop, trillion, emerald cut, octagon cut, and marquise cut depending on the stone. I'm selling everything super cheap! I'm selling at a 60% to 80% discount off of marked prices, depending on the gemstone. Prices were marked between 18 and 35 years ago by my father. Many of the marked prices are wholesale to begin with.
If you're looking for my gemstones mounted into jewelry (earrings & Pendants), my new thread is HERE A stone you would pay $200+ at your jeweler, you may buy from me for as little as $20. If you're looking for anything in particular, please contact me. If you have children or think having some cool gemstones would be neat, for $18 I'll make up a gem package worth at least $100 with different gemstones in it. Shipping is usually generally cost me between $15-$26. I'll put a 2 week guarantee on everything. If you aren't satisfied for any reason, I'll return your full purchase price including shipping. Here's my current $18 gem bag. Yours may be slightly different. Includes Citrine, Amethyst, Raspberry Garnet, Peridot, and Cubic Zirconia. The huge Citrine is 10X14mm, and the smallest is 4X6mm. If you want different gems, or different size/shape please ask. Attached File ETA: I'm also willing to do trades for guns, ammo, or a good woman (looking for unicorns) I accept Paypal, Zelle, CASH APP, or USPS Postal money orders/cash 3% fee is added to Paypal payments. These are gemstones I know I have: NOTE: I also have access to high grade lab grown crystals. These are available in Ruby, Emerald, Blue sapphire, Alexandrite, etc. Want an $1800 Sapphire, but can't afford it? For ~$30 You can have that perfect gemstone. Most of these gems require a professional and a microscope to tell the difference. They rate in hardness from 8.5 to 9.5 on the MOHS scale, so they are suitable for all types of jewelry. The stones I have worked with have been absolutely flawless and beautiful! TOPAZ (BLUE,SILVER,MYSTIC, Imperial, Green) SAPPHIRE (BLUE, PINK, RASPBERRY, CLEAR, ORANGE) LIMITED VARIETY CITRINE PERIDOT RUBY VERY LIMITED. I also have lab grown GARNET (African, Mosambique, Rhodolite, Raspberry) TSAVORITE ( GREEN GARNET) AMETHYST OPAL AQUAMARINE TOURMALINE (Green, Blue-Green, Pink) EMERALD (Lab grown only) GOLDEN BERYL TANZANITE IOLITE SPINEL ANDALUCITE APATITE SCAPOLITE ZIRCON (GREEN & BLUE) FIRE AGATE AMBER BLACK ONYX AMATRINE HESSONITE CUBIC ZIRCONIA Mother-Of-Pearl Pearls If you know nothing about gemstones, but are interested...well, that's over half the orders I get. No worries. I will help you out. ETA: Again to change prices. I'm not making anymore money, just trying to survive like everyone else. My price for settings has gone up 20%, lab grown gems have quadrupled in price, and my shipping cost has gone up $1. |

I've had 13 orders on the 1st day, and quite a few pending orders. I just want to say "Thank You" to all who have shown interest. If for some reason, I haven't gotten back to you, please email or IM me.
I'm having some issues with my email program. I'm going to send these out ASAP. Please note: I'm a widower with 3 children. I have 4 kitchen size trash bags full of gemstones. Many of which are unsorted. The vast majority of stones I don't have pictures of. Pictures require a light box and editing...very time consuming. The gemstones you receive will probably look better than the pictures. If you want something I haven't listed, please ask. I may have it. Upon receipt, please leave feedback for me. I have matching pairs (to make earrings,etc) of most stones. Thanks! |

A lot of people have had interest in high grade stones and pricing. I'm generally subtracting 75% on most gems. The prices marked on these are between 20 and 35 years old...and most are wholesale pricing. My father was a distributor. He sold to people that then sold to jewelry stores.
For instance, a sapphire marked $86 would end up being $400+ by the time it ended up on the shelf. The pictures that follow are a small sampling of what I have. My pictures suck...doing the best I can. Attached File |

New $15 gem bags with picture at top of page.
Due to availability of gemstones, I'm changing the gems in them again. From top left to right: Citrine, Amethyst, African Garnet, Silver Topaz, Swiss Blue Topaz, Smokey Quartz. Rose Quartz, Black Onyx, Carnelian(?), Jade, Hemotite(?), moonstone, Peridot. The new bags will contain: 1. A larger Citrine 2. Peridot 3. Garnet 4. A good size Blue Topaz or Silver Topaz 5. A larger sized Amethyst And any stones I feel like throwing in, which could include one or more of the following: Topaz, Turquoise, Onyx, Tigereye, Agate, Golden Beryl, Coral, etc. Sometimes I find beautiful, expensive stones that are damaged or imperfect, and these might get thrown in here as well. Each package will contain at least the five stones listed above which are worth MUCH more than the $15. If you have kids that are interested in pretty stones this is a must buy. They will love it! I will update this picture soon to reflect the new bags |
