was following this thread closely as i am looking for some information/guide on where to start my journey.

Just saw the Enchanted Diamond has file for bankruptcy. I was just looking at their website 2 weeks ago!

That's my concern when buying gems online/not through established brands. Branded bricks and mortar shop may be expensive but somehow it gives that assurance especially after sales.

I have spoken to The Gem Tribe and the lady seems very knowledgeable. Any other recommendation for services similar to TGT? Preferably based in Malaysia.

Hi would you mind helping me to look at this diamond?


GIA 2201369818

On top of GIA report, they have this Sarine report that documents every details of the diamond from its raw image (before cut) till its current form.

Along with the ASET images.. And where the inclusions are.

I wish I could take photo but I wasn't allowed to.

I only got their GIA number. Their sarine certificate was shown to me but I am not allowed to take photos...

They have this comparison chart between GIA and AGR or something which they say is based on Sarine AI grading.

The purpose is to sort of make sure GIA grading is consistent.

Not sure how reliable that report is.

Hi, I changed my decision and opted for this instead. I went down 1 colour but I got a Flawless clarity.

Please give me your view even though I have already paid the deposit.

GIA 5202158121

This is the report they gave me. Its just a print out. Once the ri g is ready they will give me an official Sarine Report.


Thanks bro!!

Interesting as in good or bad thing? Please tell me if I have to change my mind though I paid the deposit.

It's a Melbourne based jeweller. I can pm you the exact details if you need. Very high reviews from people but I only take reviews with a pinch of salt.

The reason I go is that I can see the owner took time to explain everything and show me all the tools used and the Sarine report. I would have gone to somewhere else if not for this

Just saw your updated post. I got it for aud7.4k but I can still claim gst refund which brings it down to around 6.8k

Ahhh nah its Melbourne based. The price is the diamond and the custom platinum setting. Can tell them how you want to design and they draw it up for you.

Thanks for your view on this. I already placed the booking so I guess I can only hope the performance won't be that bad.

Thanks! Got my sarine light report and to be honest, it's more than what I expected.

Also as you rightly pointed out, the cut may not be perfect hence probably affected the light symmetry rating.

But overall, I am satisfied and the jewellers has been quite transparent.

Why do you even bother responding to these people?

First of all, abit of background here. I posted here once, to get recommendations and opinions on the stone I was looking at. In the end, I DID NOT go with this brother's recommendation because I prefer to deal with a shop instead of an online seller.

So basically, he is just giving his opinion in a forum where everyone is allowed to.

On the other hand, 2 new chaps just budged in as new accountholders, offer no suggestions or whatsoever to prove what they say about kambingkoh. All I see is just bashing and bashing without any facts or points to counter or even justify their basis.

If you say kambingkoh is bullshiting, provide some pointers la. At least he is giving opinion by justifying how he arrives at those opinions.

Also, for the dude who say he bought the stone based on recommendation here, give more information if you really think you have been misguided. I also want to see whether is there any truth in all these allegations.

Unless of course, these sudden appearance of new accountholders bashing others for no justifications are doing so for their own personal reasons, then it's a different matter.

Everything is out there on the Internet. You don't have to listen to 1 party. You can always verify with other parties. At this point, all these bashings are just so obvious to be targeted at this brother with no basis provided at all.

Quick hint: it looks stupid on you guys who only bash and talk without substance. Back it up with points and facts or even some basic information la.
