Hi everyone!
Can I have your opinion about this ring on Catawiki auction website? https://www.catawiki.com/l/37766301-925-silver-ring-6-52-ct-green-emerald
At the moment the highest bid is EUR 80, but the auction will end in 22 hours. So, there is still plenty of time.
I would love to know your opinion on how much it is worth to bid on this ring? I assume, the ring is pretty expensive. It has to be… The emerald’s weight is 6.52 carats.
By the way, has anyone been buying anything from this seller – Venckerstore from Germany?
His (her) feedback score is far from being perfect – 94.1%.
Thank you very much!
Sincerely, A.K.
Dear A.K.,
I am 100% sure this is not an emerald.
I am 99.99% sure this stone is prehnite.
Thus, I am 100% sure this seller is a fraudster.
You cannot really compare the price of emerald and prehnite. Prehnites are extremely cheap. So is this ring. I wouldn’t bid on it if I were you.

It could be also fluorite or chrysoprase, but I agree that it is prehnite most likely. There is absolutely no doubt that it is not emerald.
The market value of this ring is about $20 – $40.
Scams like this perfectly explain the seller’s poor feedback score.
I hope this helps.
Hi!
I don’t know what it is, but it is for sure not an emerald. Emerald has totally different green tone. It is very unprofessional to sell it as an emerald ring.
The buyer will have a very unpleasant surprise 🙁

Come on – it is so obvious that this is not an emerald! I am not an expert but even I can see this!
