TL, another quick question while I have your attention (I hope). It''s about UGL appraisals
"I looked at your link, and it uses an appraisal from UGL, which I did a little searching on the internet for. UGL is the appraisal branch of EGL (another gemologial lab), and based on what I read on the net, their appraisals are highly inflated. Based on that, I personally wouldn''t trust them. "
You wrote this in another link a while back.... I have an emerald that has a UGL appraisal.... I realize the value is probably way over inflated, and that''s ok because I didn''t pay anything near what it says... my question is whether or not the info on the appraisal can be trusted...
ie... it says "traditional normal enhancement: cedar oil"
Do you think that can be trusted or should I have it looked at by someone else. I want to know what I have, not so much because I might have been taken (might have but it''s too late to do anything about it)... but I want to know whether or not to look at this stone for a "fun ring" ie, LOGR type setting, or whether I am going to wait until I can find a more expensive/special setting for it.
(not knocking LOGR, as I have several)
TIA for your opinion (and anyone else who would like to chime in)..
