[QUOTE="NorthKorea, post: 1309300, member: 29643"]I realize it's not quite the same... but I missed the boat on a very pretty ring the other day on Craigslist. The seller said they were sapphires, but I was pretty sure they were Tanzanite. In any case, she decided to sell to someone else, because I live on a different island... and she didn't want to deal with Paypal. It was 9 stones set in a filigree of 18k white gold... For $225!!! *Banging head on wall.* I assumed Tanzanite for the following reasons: 1) She said her dad got the gems in Africa. 2) They were purple/blue under the flash and almost sky-blue with indirect sunlight. I didn't think they were worth a whole lot (due to the windows in the gems), but it was VERY nice in the one picture with flash... so I'm sure it was breath-taking in person. :([/QUOTE]
