 A woman from Taiwan was looking for a one and three quarter, round, E, VVS1, with a GIA cert. I couldn't find that stone in Chicago, at any price - but I found it on Polygon. It was available from a dealer in Richmond, Virginia, and I made the sale. The woman came back later with her family and altogether they've spent nearly $120,000 with us. Now each time she returns, she smiles.
