What is the GIA Option?
Many times we receive diamonds that we do not agree with the grading due to an over optimistic appraiser or a poorly done lab report. To prove to our sellers that we are making fair offer we have introduced The GIA Option program. We first buy the diamond for an agreed upon amount with an additional schedule of a further payment if it comes back from the lab a higher grade. It protects you, the seller from selling too low based on a grade that is perhaps too harsh and protects the buyer, ourselves, from overpaying for a diamond that is returned with a lower grade than expected. Certain diamonds that do not warrant the expense may not qualify for this option. Please see The GIA Option page for a more detailed explanation.
