![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Interesting and alarming. I have shipped many Mikimoto pearl and a few colored gem items and as yet have not had problems. I wonder how widespread this irradition process is/will be. Will it be applied to every piece of mail, or to random selections? I guess if you have a crummy quality gem, you can mail it to yourself and get free color enhancement. [This message has been edited by Paul Lemieux (edited 10-19-2006).] IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This info is from the GIA which first appeared in 2001. I have never known anyone who has had this problem. I was curious to find out if anyone has had this issue or has heard anything more recent than 2001/2. I suppose if your local Post Office was irradiating the mail, then a clever person could start a business just by opening a PO Box... "send your gem to PO Box XXX for a color change" .. Total overhead, return postage. IP: Logged |
