I enjoyed looking at the variety offered and being able to have many choices. The prices seemed fair and I was able to get the size and shape of stone I wanted.
I wanted to buy some gems because I think theya'd be cool to have and this seemed like the best website to buy them from. The website is a bit old looking and could use an update to the user interface but otherwise ita's great.
I have ordered many many gems over the years from them and I am always VERY happy!! And if I wasn't they do accept returns which is a great peace of mind.
It's important to understand what you are buying. Gem stones all vary significantly and you need to adjust your selection based on purpose, cost, expected out come.In my case I was selecting and very attractive heart shaped stone which once set in a pendent would fall in a specific cost range yet present an attractive picture of luxury without extreme risk e.g loss.
I am always pleased with my GemSelect experiences. The ability to narrow my focus by size, price, lots, etc is wonderful. The gems are always as advertised.
Everything was well labeled and organized, lots of information for each product that lets you know it's legitimate. Huge selection, almost too easy to check out, I'll have to pay rent in rocks lol.
I really enjoy how you can sort the types of gemstones by cut, color, and size. The website is laid out very well. To be able to sort through the gemstones on the rolling slide to the left of the page is a useful tool.
I was looking for a gemstone called Sphene/Titanite and found it on GemSelect. They had many gems to choose from and had good prices. I received my order a little later than expected but given that it's coming from overseas I wasn't too worried. The 2 gems I received are beautiful. I have to say that I have no gem knowledge- I am a novice and I ordered the Sphene for healing purposes, so I am hoping they are real. I have no way of confirming if that is true. But they are beautiful!
