Sure. run a search on this ebay seller vallejo916. his pictures can be pretty bad, but you really do get beautiful stones. I''ve always had the best luck with him on ebay.

Hey I was right.

I''ve had good and bad luck with his stones. I wish his pictures were better, but one of my favorite gems is from him - my rubellite.

I got a few from him that was a little dark, though I can''t fault the cutting. He cut an orange zircon that I fell in love with but will probably never set because it goes nearly black in sunlight.

I remember that rubellite, I had a feeling it would be uber pretty.

I just got another rubellite from him - a 9mm round of 2.5 carats to be exact for $79 (cheap for a 2.5 carat American faceted rubellite). If I ever get it, I'll post pictures. I'm hoping it will fit in one of my mountings that has been sitting empty forever. That setting really needs a bright red stone.
