Hi Tiptopgemdotcom,

Compliments for gemstones...
Are you interested in using a service like eBay, but decentralized? It is an app that accepts ETH, has very low fees.

Thanks for pointing that out- I've fixed it now.

Where are your one-cent gemstone auctions?  IIRC, the auctions have long expired, so I ask that you change your title accordingly because it is now misleading.

I followed the link on the first post, and it doesn't have any auctions on it. There is only buy now gemstones. What happened OP?

I've just listed two exceptional rubies from Montepuez mining region in Mozambique.  This mining area is producing some of the most beautiful ruby that the world has ever seen.  Please take a look:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNTREATED-Mozambican-pigeons-blood-ruby-GRS-report-1-02cts-WITH-VIDEO-/162195513627?ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT

http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNTREATED-Mozambican-pigeons-blood-ruby-GRS-report-1-11cts-WITH-VIDEO-/162195498085?ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT

Don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you are looking for heated or untreated ruby from Mozambique.  I have access to exceptional stones of all sizes from one carat to ten carats and even larger.  Pigeon's blood color has never been so affordable- when Burmese material was the only game in town you had to invest an extraordinary sum to own top color.  Right now pigeon's blood color in one and two carat sizes is within reach for most ruby aficionados.  At three carats the price goes up quite a bit but nothing like 3-ct Burmese ruby, and the vast majority of Mozambican ruby is completely untreated.  As with the two rubies above which I've listed on eBay, independent laboratory reports are never a problem to obtain.  We do business with well-respected labs like Lotus, AIGS, GRS, and Tokyo Gem Lab on a regular basis.

If you want more information on this amazing ruby from Montepuez, Mozambique please feel free to get in touch with me and I would be more than happy to answer your questions.  I am not only a graduate gemologist (GIA), but I am also a stone collector and a ruby lover myself so it's not a bother!

THE PHOTO LINKS BELOW APPEAR BROKEN BUT IF YOU JUST CLICK ON EACH ONE YOU WILL SEE THE PICS!

Here is a preview of an AMAZING true FANTA colored spessartite garnet that we will auction off on eBay very soon.  I will not use a reserve price, and the bid will start very low for such an amazing stone.  This UNTREATED garnet is over five carats!!!!  It was mined in Nigeria, cut and polished ONLY.  This color is 100% natural.  This is a gemstone fit for a KING and you will feel like one when you hold it in your hand!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pflFij5YouE&feature=youtu.be

Here are some pictures of this phenomenal stone:









The listing will begin on Paragon Universal Trade's eBay account on Sunday night Eastern Standard Time in the USA.  Here is the link to our eBay store:

http://stores.ebay.com/paragonuniversaltrade

You don't have to be a millionaire to own stones that are fit for a king.  You just have to jump when the opportunity presents itself.

THE SPESSARTITE GARNET IS LIVE NOW; PLEASE CHECK IT OUT:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNTREATED-Nigerian-spessartite-garnet-5-24-cts-WITH-VIDEO-ships-free-VIVID-COLOR-/162169584202?ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT

This Zambian emerald is simply stunning, and it is going for a VERY low price right now:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Zambian-emerald-NO-resin-only-colorless-oil-1-59-carats-WITH-VIDEO-ships-free-/162162450268?ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT

This is an emerald that anyone would be proud to own or to wear in a ring or a pendant!  As the auction's end grows near we may see larger bids but right now it is still going for FAR below replacement value.



If you click on the auction link above you will also see a video of this amazing emerald.  It has a wonderful pure green hue with excellent saturation.  It has ONLY been treated with colorless oil- it is NOT a dyed stone like emeralds on eBay so often are, and it has had NO resin treatment.  Only colorless oil has been used- no dye and no resin, which would greatly reduce the value.  Emeralds treated only with colorless oil are the most valuable and desirable, and that is predominantly what we sell.



As always if you have any questions at all about this emerald just ask!  As a GIA Graduate Gemologist, I know my obligations to disclose gemstone treatments, describe stones accurately, and abide by all FTC guidelines.

OF COURSE YOU CAN ALWAYS PAY WITH BITCOIN IF YOU WIN ONE OF MY AUCTIONS!!!  I WILL ALWAYS ACCEPT REAL MONEY!

A good friend of mine from Guinea brought an amazing piece of rough grandidierite to show me today.  WOW, talk about a rare stone!







That piece weighs 155 grams.  It is cabochon grade, but my friend hopes to have some high-quality pieces soon that will cut clean faceted gemstones.  I can't wait!!!  Here is a good article from GIA about this stone:

This smoke-treated Ethiopian Welo opal will list in our eBay store very soon:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNv1FPYHoO8

Smoke-treated Ethiopian material is designed to look like natural Australian black opal.  The treated Ethiopian material sells for far less than fine Australian black opal, so this will be a great opportunity to get a beautiful black opal at a very low price.

Of course this is not the only stone that is coming!  Melanie and I have been out on the gemstone bourse in the Jewelry Trade Center in Silom- the epicenter of the global gemstone trade- and we are bringing you the very best stones that Bangkok has to offer!  If you want to see more, please add me on Twitter:

This is a really gorgeous fluorite that is not only cut in Thailand (true of most gemstones that we sell), but it also came out of the ground here. This gemstone was mined in Doi Than Ngoam, Phrae Province in northern Thailand and it is a beauty:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_VN0Z6CrgY

This Thai fluorite weighs 9.997 carats, or just a teeny tiny bit below ten carats, and will be in our eBay store in a matter of hours.  Please bookmark this link and keep checking:

http://stores.ebay.com/Paragon-Universal-Trade

Don't assume that it is expensive!  Thai fluorite can be quite reasonable even for fairly large, well-cut, and beautifully colored gems like this example.  

Remember you can always send me a private message on this forum, or go to paragonuniversaltrade.com and you will be forwarded to our Facebook page where you can send me a message.

This is a very beautiful blue sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka) that weighs 2.54 carats and is TOTALLY UNTREATED- no heat, no resin or oil, no chemicals or surface coatings.  This stone was mined from the earth in Sri Lanka and was cut and polished ONLY.  $560 per carat

This Kenyan dravite bi-color tourmaline is one of the rarest and most exciting stones that we have listed in a long time:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/VERY-RARE-dravite-bi-color-tourmaline-from-Kenya-1-64-cts-VIDEO-free-shipping-/162158344037

If you would like to own a stone that NOBODY else has, that tourmaline from Taita Taveta in the Coast Province of Kenya is ideal.  It's incredibly well-cut with superb brilliance, both yellow and orange body color, and it has incredible presence in the hand.  The sparkles will speak to you!  TOTALLY UNTREATED tourmaline- no heat or chemicals or resin or oil, and no surface coatings.  It was mined from the earth in Taita Taveta, Kenya and cut and polished ONLY.  

I've posted five new auctions and all start at less than $20.  Please take a look!



These two are totally untreated Ethiopian opal from the Welo mining region:

These three are also natural Ethiopian Welo opal, but they've been smoke-treated to look like Australian black opal:

I started one early just for you Fruitsbasket.  

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SMOKED-Ethiopian-Welo-opal-1-43-carats-WITH-VIDEO-free-shipping-/162158680144?ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT

The 1.43 carat opal actually starts a little bit later- about 40 minutes after the first two start.  

Oh, and yes- these will be shipped to the winning bidder via registered mail so you will be able to track at.  As soon as we ship a stone out, we enter the tracking number in eBay so if you go to your account you will be able to see it as the winning bidder.

Hi Fruitsbasket!  They will start in 6 hours and 44 minutes.  All three opals will open at only 19.99USD.  Put in a bid- you might even win for that amount!  Good luck.

I am sorry, I can not watch videos since I have limited 3G internet.
Are we allowed to bid yet? If yes, what will the minium bid be, or there is no?

I am interested, especially with free shipping. Does it include insurance shipping and track and trace?

I have a new stone going up soon but I wanted to give the bitcoiners here a heads-up.  This is smoke-treated Ethiopian Welo opal and it is intended to simulate untreated Australian black opal but cost a whole lot less.  Keep in mind that this is natural opal that was mined from the earth in the Welo mining region of Ethiopia but it was smoke-treated to create a beautiful contrast between the flashes of color and the dark body color.  Here is the sneak-preview of the videos in the listings that will start later today:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qk9OCA36PB4

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHI9pKpL_No

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlK8sFq0ues

These are fairly inexpensive stones and they are all being listed with FREE shipping.

These three opals will list between 8 and 9PM eBay time and you will be able to see them in our store at this link:

Please keep an eye on our store!  Many new stones are coming, some items are on sale, and more and more of our auctions will offer free shipping.  As always if you win an auction you can pay me directly with bitcoin.  Some people are confused about how this works, but all you have to do is win the auction and let me know via message on this forum that you want to pay with bitcoin.  After payment is received I mark it paid on eBay and ship the stone directly to you.

Here is our store- please bookmark it and check back often:

If you are in the USA you can also pay for any eBay purchases with a personal check.  Of course if you wish you can use Paypal right on the eBay site and pay with a debit card, credit card, or via bank account debit.  The only hard part is figuring out which stone to buy!

We've just opened our new eBay store!  Watch closely over the next few days because more stones are coming and so is a fabulous shipping promotion!

Do I have to bid on eBay or can I also send you a PM with my bid?
Since I have not many PayPal funds, but alot of bitcoin and I don't know how eBay auctioning works.

I've listed some new auctions and a couple of them are starting at only $5 with no reserve.  If you win for $5, the stone is yours!  You can always pay with bitcoin if you win any of my eBay auctions:

http://www.auctiva.com/stores/viewstore2.aspx?id=1950544&siteid=0&rlid=2100

Yes, I am the seller on eBay.  What you do when you place a bid is enter the most you are willing to bid.  Let's say the bid is at $10, and you are willing to pay $30.  You enter $30, and then eBay automatically bids for you to go over any previous bids but not over your maximum.  The best way to learn exactly how it works is to give it a try- there is little risk as long as you don't enter more than the maximum you are willing to bid.  Of course, if the bid is at $10 and you want to enter $11, you certainly can.

Hello, I assume that you are the seller since the signature u wear is the same as the name of the seller on ebay. I have a question about ebay, since I don't know how the auction works. Is it like I bid 50€, then someone else bids 52€, I get my 50€ back, or what happens?

Don't miss this 1.47 carat UNTREATED ceylon yellow sapphire- no reserve!

The other is also an untreated Australian Yowah/Koroit opal from Queensland and the bid is only $1.25!

Keep in mind if you win both, you only pay ONE shipping charge because I always allow customers to combine shipping.  All you have to do is win more than one auction, then send me a message via eBay's messaging system or here on this forum and say "combine shipping", and I will send you an invoice that reflects only one shipping fee.

11 cents!

As with any stone we sell, it can be submitted to the independent laboratory of your choice so you have documentation of its natural origin.  The most popular labs are Tokyo Gem Lab, AIGS, and GIT.  Just contact me for details and pricing if you are interested in buying this stone with a report.

Here is a finished 18K white gold ring that is available right now- $599 plus shipping and insurance.  The center stone is a superb 1 1/4 carat Ceylon blue sapphire, only heat (no filled fissures and no chemicals to enhance the color):

This is USA size 7, bit it can be resized for a reasonable cost.  Note that this is European style white gold that is alloyed with palladium, a noble metal, not the cheaper type of white gold that is alloyed with nickel.  Most people who are allergic to white gold aren't allergic to the gold at all, they are allergic to the nickel alloy.  Nickel is much cheaper than palladium though, so many jewelers who are trying to cut costs use it.  We prefer to cast the higher-quality, more valuable white gold alloy that is hypoallergenic.

Some low-priced gemstones are reaching the end of their 7-day auction period and some are still as low as ONE CENT.  These are NOT junk stones- they are high-quality and beautiful stones from our regular inventory that were listed with a one-cent opening bid for promotional purposes.  Please take a look and note that I always accept bitcoin for payment if you win an auction:

Please don't hesitate to ask me if you have any questions about a stone.  I am not just a gemologist, but I am a passionate gemstone collector myself.  I love stones!  If there is anything that you don't know, anything that piques your curiosity, holler at me!  Send me a message on this forum, or go to paragonuniversaltrade.com (which forwards to my business facebook page) and send me a note.  I will answer any question about gemstones, big or small, easy or hard!

NOTE THAT THESE 1-CENT AUCTIONS HAVE NO RESERVE.  IF YOU WIN FOR A PENNY OR TWO OR THREE, YOU OWN IT.

in the interest of full disclosure, there are shipping charges to cover the cost of the box and padded mailer and international registered mail fees.  but they are very reasonable!
