I'm not as experienced as other PSers ordering diamonds online and getting them shipped to Canada, but the customs forms had pretty much the same description over and over (loose diamond, XX ct diamond, etc) - until now. My latest purchase had me giggling and thinking "was this vendor testing the customs agents?" I've ordered from them before and the other forms said "loose diamonds"

I hope you guys got a chuckle out of this too. I don't know why I think the description is funny. It must be the sleep deprivation :lol:
PS - this was the first time my diamond order didn't get held up by customs!

I LOL'd. Seriously.
 
HAHAHA! Awesoome!
 
Take note for next time, gemfever :naughty:
 
You're lucky it didn't get held up at customs.

JbEG sent our diamond as crystallized carbon (to Canada) and we had to go down to the airport and put up with some serious questions until we opened the package and then it was a funny joke to them.

I was going to say...couldn't this potentially cause confusion? I wonder what the reasoning is to use this term. Hmm :read:
 
Funny, I think you've been lucky :)

Prevents someone for searching for the term diamond in the computer and targeting it for theft.
Wont work for long the crooks will figure it out too.

Ah ok, that makes sense...but I agree that it's a temporary solution and only a matter of time before the bad guys figure it out!
