what''s the funniest thing that you ever heard from a jewelry salesperson...

[Gale]

From the jeweller that broke one of my Richard Homer amethysts, who was trying to replace the concave cut deep purple beauty with a silghtly darker than lavendar flat faceted stone:

It''s on the other side of your head. No one will even notice the colour or cut differences.

While I am studying gemology, I would like to get a job as a sales assosiate at a local jewellery store.
So I was naturaly very interested in reading this thread in order to see what I will be competing against.

After reading this thread, I became convinced that I would have no trouble achivieng my goals in this part of my career.

Thank you all for lifting my spirit in such a tremendous way!
