First of all, I’d like to thank you, Anna and @Editor, for your exhaustive answers on this one – https://www.shopperlib.com/question/12-25-ct-ggl-certificate-unheated-emerald-ring-925-ebay/
Are these two dyed beryl, too?:
1. https://auctionet.com/en/1232118-smaragd-7-07-ct
2. https://auctionet.com/en/1232125-smaragd-11-60-ct
OMG, this one https://auctionet.com/en/1232125-smaragd-11-60-ct is already at 192 euros! And it’s two more days to go. Awful! Poor bidders! Here is an “emerald” exactly like this one (image attached). $12.99, free shipping 🙂 I am not sure whether this dyed quartz is worth even $12.99… I mean, what is that you can do with it?
auctionet.com or Garpenhus Auktioner are total bastards!!!
Dear Igi,
No, these two are dyed and fracture filled quartz. I know, it is hard to imagine that anything could be more worthless than dyed beryl but these two actually are 🙂
So, Garpenhus Auktioner are liars and fraudsters. And auctionet.com are no better if they allow things like this to happen.
It would be interesting to find out who is in charge of these estimates? Is it auctionet.com (the site) or Garpenhus Auktioner (the seller)? It is obvious that a genuine emerald of 7.07 or 11.6 carats could never be given such a low estimate of EUR 268. So, the one who is in charge of these estimates, knows that this is a fake.
If anyone here knows who is in charge of the valuations on auctionet.com, please share this info!
They relisted both items about an hour ago 🙂 I wonder, is that a proof of shill bidding or the buyers were ultimately smart enough not to pay for these fake emeralds…
