[QUOTE="willo1, post: 227745, member: 1986"] Hi Pawny, I have only just started getting into gems and sapphires. I had some that I sent over to Thailand to get cut. I sent over 42 stones and ended up getting 15 of them cut. The rest were sent back as rejects, although it appeared that they attempted to cut some of the rejects but due to inclusions and cracks they have stopped. It was amazing to see how small some of the stones were that they cut. I got a few stones back that were the size of a pin head. It ended up being around $110 Au dollars to get them cut. Be prepared to wait for them though, it took around 3 and a half months to get them back. [/QUOTE]
