It would be nice if free shipping was offered for high dollar total orders, also the site could be easier to navigate if it was left to search all products at once instead of certain collections. Although very helpful adding a feature to make it easier to search all your inventory is better than hunting and weeding through multiple pages and links.
I was just browsing on my trusted gem site, Gem Select, when I saw gems that were my grand children's birth stones. The price was right, so I ordered them. I like to surprise my grand children with something special for their birthday, and they will be nice birthday gifts.
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 had problems with PayPal. My customer service rep, Thomas, did a great job in shepherding me through the process. I ended up purchasing three stones, due to Thomas good customer service. Thomas deserves a raise and a week's vacation.
My significant other told me about gem select, he knows I have a small business in making jewelry. I often use these and experiment with new designs and seeing the wide variety of options really is amazing. I love all of the items I see, but sometimes I want more than one of the selection and there is only one of that type. I understand it takes work to put these together so I am not complaining. I would recommend this sort of thing to my friends that might be interested in making jewelry or to others that are on forums say on reddit or other sites.
the fire opal is gorgeous, has a little spark of green flame in it. sillimatite cat's eye is cute, I might order a larger one sometime. and now I have a spare white sapphire
