GemSelect is always my first choice for purchasing gemstones. The fact that the gems are always exactly as described and pictured on the website has earned my trust many times over. Even when I don't buy, I still love browsing all the beautiful stones. My new favorites are the bright green Tsavorites!

Site worked well and helped me find a rock that matched what I was looking for. Well within budget and I trust it will show up, so that's definitely positive. Not much else to it. Satisfied.

My experience has always been fantastic. Today I saved 6 gems to email a customer looking for a particular color blend to fit into an east west setting, so her options were limited, but we found one she wanted, deleted all the others in the cart and order the gem she selected. It was helpful to be able to put them in the cart so I could save them until she selected the one she wanted without having to research all of them again.
