I've purchased things from GemSelect before. What you see is what you get, which is not always the case with gem sites online. You can find some good value with gem select, and I will buy from them again.

On the clarity options it goes "and better" so if youre looking for si specifically and you click si and better it still shows you basically everything. It just removes the opaques. Itd be nice if it was vs only, vss only, si only, etc

I liked the selection of gems, and price. I did not like your PayPal process. I already have a PP account and you want me to sign up for another.

They have a wonderful selection of gems of all sorts, shapes, cuts, and quality. I am very particular about the quality of stones I buy, and found many with VVS clarity and excellent cut and polish. I am thrilled with each of the stones I purchased, and would definitely recommend GemSelect to everyone.
