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.

I needed a very specific color of tourmaline and Gem Select had it. I had to get the client to agree and then ordered the stone. It arrived better than pictured and we all were very happy.
