"I'm kind of new to gem collecting, but when I got this parcel I thought 3 things. 1) Nice color (light and dark pink/purple) and clarity (fire and sparkle). 2) I couldn't tell the cut without a microscope they were that small (looked like pink inclusions pulled from stones). There were 10.2 ct, but looked like over 60 stones. 3) How quickly would I get a refund when I return this package?"

"I bought this parcel exspecting to use them in Earrings, they are not useable, they are accent stones so small you need a magnifing Glass just to see them. The Show host showed a parcel of 6x4mm ovals. This is not what we got. I sent them back. The colors vary.Some are very light on color, almost white. Very Disappointed."

"This parcel was not what I expected. It was a little smaller stone size. I thought I would get maybe one 7x5 out of the bunch but none of them were that large. I sent this one back to JTV due to it was not what I needed. This would be very good for accent stones or a cluster ring."
