A Laughable Gem site

A laughable gem site posted this 'ruby' cabochon for $41.00.

Others were as high as $250. for what I consider 'garbage'. I mean there were eye visible chunks of inclusions which were polished!

It pays or I should say saves to do your homework and truly educate oneself before buying stones.

The market determines value, and I guess one mans garbage is another mans treasure. But I mean really is this 'stone' worth $41.00?

                  Some folks will 'buy anything'.
            On Catalina Island they used to sell Gold painted 'buffalo dung' to the tourists.

                                                                                          Fossis............
