Somebody's Gotta Buy This Stone!

You don't get many chrysos that neon-y. Wow.
 
That's blinding! If it looks anything like that IRL, wow! I'd love to see it on my own paw.

+1 Unbelievable colour! :love:

Here's a pretty stone I will call a "sunset" sapphire since it seems to be a pastel mix of orange and yellow with darker flashes - check the video listed here http://www.multicolour.com/detail/index.html?1482542544

If you get it for a looksee please start a thread so we can all enjoy (this goes for every stone posted here of course) :naughty:

Starzin, I've been looking that one for months! The video just went up recently; I was surprised how pink it looks in the video and by the bow tie, which doesn't look as bad in the photo. Still a gorgeous stone though.
 
Yes, I tripped over it accidentally and was struck by the colour which you don't see very often.

Jerry can fix the bowtie fairly inexpensively I would think :appl: If you can afford it and want it, at least get it so we can get more pics in hand!

ETA: I don't think David puts up videos unless someone asks so anyone who wants it should be quick.
 
Somebody please buy this from Gene before my bank manager gives up the fight....

Ouch! I feel my eyeballs burning! :love:
 
I hadn't seen that one, CM. That is some color, alright. Wow! :love:

It says you can still add it to cart, but somehow I don't believe it.. :P

But whoever gets it, we need MORE PICTURES
 
Now Out Of Stock
 
I "purchased" Gene's new Winza sapphire, but I'm not holding my breath - it's been a couple of years since I've managed to snag one of his new stones. While I am half-expecting to see a refund notice show up in my email, I'm also really hoping this time I get the stone! (fingers crossed)

Well, I just don't know, I still haven't received an order confirmation from Gene nor a refund, so I am still up in the air as to the new Winza sapphire - in the past I've heard from him the same day or the next morning - could be he is busy, but I don't like being in limbo this long...
 
That Winza would keep you awake at night, it's so bright. Hope you got it!

Somebody PLEASE take this scapolite off Gene's hands before I cave in! I love yellow scapolite but just have to not spend any more till I get a few things set. One like this won't come along again, groan. It's 13+ mm, would make a stunning pendant, and only $331.

Hmmm, it is a little weird that last month's drop I received two email alert, but this time I didn't receive any...I've been missing Gene's drop for quite a few times now but I'm certain that I subscribed it.

I didn't get this month's email either.... Anyone else have issues?
And I just got the dreaded "refund sent" email. :cry:
 
Oh, too bad, BB. Next time?

I didn't get an email on this drop either. In fact, didn't have one since last April until finally last month when I emailed Gene to ask if he was still sending them. So I got that one, but not this time.

The Winza is not for me - I received a PayPal refund email - quite disappointed - but have high hopes a PSer is getting this lovely and will post pics so I can enjoy it vicariously.
 
So sorry marymm ;( Hopefully a PSer got it and will start a thread.
 
Gene did say some time ago that he was not going to send out notices anymore when he puts up new stones. I think the same few people were snapping things up without reflecting first, and consequently he was getting more returns. That last notice he sent out was, I think, an anomaly.
 
That is the problem with drops; you can't ask questions before and have time to ponder.

Ah, that makes sense. I guess that is what's also driving his "no return" discount.
 
Alright, I confess. It was me. I'll start a thread when I get it. :naughty:
 
Yaaaay! So pleased for you and that we will get to see more of this stunner :appl:
 
I never get anything from anybody's drops--I've tried a few times, but I guess I'm too slow. It seems like a great marketing tool.

I look forward to seeing more pics of that deep pink corundum! Maybe I'm old fashioned, but with that depth of pink and a touch of purple, I'll call it a ruby... :naughty:
 
Lucky you, NKOTB! Can't wait to see it. Hurry!

Yay, NKOTB! Really looking forward to seeing your Winza pics and hearing your setting plans!
 
I swear NKOTB has the fastest trigger finger in the history of the planet. Yay - I can't wait to see this one, and see what you think. I know you've really been needing a pink stone to add to your collection.
