Re: Fura Gems Schedules Inaugural Australian Sapphire Auction
I need to get some stones faceted. Don't have a lot or a lot of money. Seems even when i do things, unless it is real value priced, does not sell alongside the specialists. My master faceter neighbor has a slipped disc and cant even go opal mining anymore. He doesnt cut opals, anymore anyway.
I'll jump over my shadow. https://www.virginvalleyopal.com"
