- Accompanying diamond certification can allay all your fears about being swindled. Ideally, all diamonds would come with this; however, many sellers make a living out of saddling unwary buyers with stones, which have not been certified by a trusted laboratory. This means they have no way of knowing about the authenticity of the stone, which is a major disadvantage in both the long and short terms.
- If the dealer is certified, you can be reasonably assured that they will adhere to decent selling practices when dealing with you.
- A proven track record on the seller’s part goes a long way in easing worries about not buying the way most consumers do.
