That will be one awesome collection.
Welcome! Now that you have revealed yourself you must show us pictures!familynurse|1309803769|2961605 said:Hi everyone,
First time post, but I have been lurking on this forum for about a year. I bought my first gemstone today from Mastercutgems- its the Tanzania Mahenge Hot Pink Spinel 1.005 carat. I have been wanting one since I first learned about them last year, but haven't been able to afford one. This one is not perfect , but color is pretty and the price was right!I haven't received a message from Paypal or Dana that it didn't go through, so I am keeping my fingers crossed. Can't wait to see it.
Also wanted to thank all you posters- I have learned so much from all of you!! If I did get the stone I will be asking for setting advice.

You deserve it all; I (on the west coast) debated whether to set my alarm and get up early. Sleeping in won, and the "good stuff" was gone - no complaints though, I'm a little richer and more rested! And you have some treasures! I want to know who got the cuprian? I'm in love with anything with a glow...
Oh, and I too, love that green green demantoid. Now that is a collector stone (too bad it didn't quite have the horsetail)
Happy Fourth everybody!

LovingDiamonds|1309804507|2961617 said:Which cuprian - I can't see one????? Do you mean the 1.33 Afghan Tourmaline? If so, I don't think it's copper bearing so unlikely to be a cuprian and more likely just a nice tourmaline. Good price for it though.

Cart=Paypal cart. Someone buys a gem and it doesn't automatically take it off the site, so two people could be trying to buy a gem at the same time and one of them gets there first. Kind of like the Kentucky Derby.
NKOTB|1309808104|2961638 said:Congrats Familynurse - do you mean first stone from Mastercut, or in general? Either way, a fine first!This is my first Dana purchase.
Jewelfreak - I didn't use to like purple (or pink), but they are my daughter's two favourite colours, and so I've grown to quite like them. I had been emailing Barry about amethysts this week, coincidentally, and so decided to grab this one. Which Montana sapphire are you referring to?
