All these questions, and I don't have to give any blood. What a Deal... I absolutely enjoy the Gem Select emails every month. This one today was special. I always say, I'll know it when I see it. This stone today was the One. Odd and Intriguing. Thank You So Much for all that you do.

Site is easy to navigate - details on cut, polish, and finish work and techniques were helpful. 3d view or wireframe diagram of stones would be nice.

It's mostly good, only some item's are easier to find through the search than the menu

the gems were smaller than I thought but I was at fault for not reading the complete discrimination

I've made several purchases through GemSelect in the past, although not within the last six months. Their gems are always beautiful and I have never had an issue with their prices or their stones. Even when I'm not buying, I love scrolling through their website, which is very user friendly. I especially appreciate being able to change the listing order to your own liking, such as most to least expensive, largest to smallest, etc. As with most online orders, however, I think the shipping charges are not commensurate with the actual weight of the items shipped.

I found what I was looking for...had to look up millimeters to inches. It would be nice to see something, like a quarter, in the pix to show relative size. I plan on buy loose gemstones for every month in the calendar
