    The only ones who make the big bucks off diamonds are the wholesalers and retailers. Everyone else just gets very little, unless it's a 5 caret or larger. So damn many diamonds out there. Rubies, emeralds are the ones that get you more because they are so much rarer.

    I picked my own wedding band up at a pawn shop in 2008 and I paid $150 for it and get compliments on it all the time. A few years ago, I took it to a jeweler to repair a broken prong on the setting and he valued the ring at $2000. It is 14k with a row of diamond flowers set just above the band. I don’t have an engagement ring because I would constantly be snagging it on things. I used to manage a clothing store and even my small ring snagged things, that is how my prong broke. I was lucky my ring was dirty, all the lotion in it held the stone in place.

    Don’t forget they already made $10,000 on the furniture. So they need way more than $10K to break even with costs. I think they’ll likely make a profit. They should get the rings appraised and have a reserve at auction. I loved the way Melissa wasn’t at all interested in switching out her wedding rings. I wasn’t either when my husband wanted to buy me a larger stone. I’m not a fan of gaudy jewelry even if real. I have small hands and I prefer something suited to my hand size.

    That stone you found was most likely Alexanderite, NOW VERY RARE, (one of June's birthstones-the other is a pearl) not mystic topaz. The pink stone with the small diamonds around it could be a pink diamond or pink topaz or pink sapphire. The redish heart shaped on with tiny fiamonds around it could be a garnet (garnet runs anywhere from green to purple and about every shade in between). If it is set in gold, most likely it is some sort of REAL STONE. Just am FYI. Even white topaz is a precious stone. The rings are beautiful.

    Those were not alexandrite... they were mystic topaz, alexandrite will be brownish purple in one kind of light and then the whole stone will have a color change when brought into natural light. The pink stone is most likely morgnite but could be pink sapphire, it doesn't appear to have the sintalation (sparkle as it moved) like a diamond would have had. I was surprised they didn't diamond it test it just incase since it would have been 50k if it was a pink diamond lol

No longer being dug up so getting pricier by the day! Alex needs to take them all to a jeweller to be checked & tested. Also, he needs to be told that semi has been dropped (quite a few years ago) as anything dug out of the earth is precious.

    Alexander, Must everything go to auction? I don't have a real understanding of jewelry value, but with an honest appraisal you could put a reserve on them and see how it goes . If they don't meet the reserve, then put them up for auction later. It isn't like big items etc, they take up little space in storage. You invested too much time and money on this one to leave it all to chance. Cheers, Rik

    Mr. Spector, you must not be familiar with Alexander's auction history...Nearly half a million fans from around the world, from MANY different financial perspectives that compete just to 'get a piece' from Curiousity Inc's 'World of Wonder'- drives the prices INCREDIBLY above and beyond the normal rhelms of the secondary market. I myself have been a jewellery reseller for over 30years - and the prices one has to pay to win one of these jewellery treasures you see in his adventures...wellllll sir, be ASSURED..Alexander & Melissa have NO worries! Even near worthless strings of nonvalue component craft 'jewellery' from Madame Rac's, that one could not sell at a flea market or garage sale for $5, went over $100. I myself paid more for some gold pieces than I will ever admit, just to have lovely treasures from 'the story'. The world's eyes & wallets vying for singular Baubles, makes for an AMAZINGLY, UNARGUABLELY *HUGE* competitive bidding base unlike anywhere- even Christie's.🤗

And I bet even the fake ones will sell just fine. There are plenty of people who want a big "looking diamond" on their hand. But I loved the ring with emerald the best. Gorgeous.

    The purple-y green stone Melissa can't remember the name for is Tanzanite. Definitely a precious stone, so most likely real diamond around it. Definitely get all of them looked at because anything large but not diamond could be clear topaz, or various colors of sapphire, and there's definitely real emerald in there too!

    @@bonnielucas1941 Blue Tanzanite is often treated for color. Natural Tanzanite tends more towards purples, periwinkles and greens. Older Tanzanite rings are less likely to have been treated for color, so have more of the natural look. I have a few pieces that match the color of that ring exactly. One is a very similar setting. Look up 'Green Tanzanite'. That said, I do see what you mean. It *could be Mystic Topaz, but Mystic Topaz usually has a lot of pink in it from what I've seen and I saw no pink in this stone. Topaz also tends to show well in video/pictures without manipulation, whereas Tanzanite often doesn't pick up color well till unless it's on a specific background, well lit and even then sometimes can needs some manipulation depending on the stone. Honestly, better if you're right and it is Topaz, it's harder than Tanzanite and will wear better.
