[QUOTE="Twapster, post: 62062, member: 1582"] I sent off the one (blue sapphire) I won at the Nundle PA trip to the guy in SA (Langford), just waiting on results. Have photos of the uncut, hopefully not too long to see the cut version. I was quoted around $90 to cut the stone but will wait to see how much. Was about 2 weeks ago, messaged me he had the stone but no new news. Lamberts quoted I think $14.50US postage and $4.5US per carat final cut weight, so assume price would have been about $30bucks all up. Told me I should prob wait for a few more stones to make it viable....Liz advised anything over 5 carat best to get cut local. Uncut the stone was about 5.95carat told it would prob make between 1.8 and 2.2 finished. Getting itchy for the results, will post before and after pics if everything goes to plan! Peter [/QUOTE]
