"I really like this store. Good service, fast shipping, secure packaging and good quality stones."

"The gemstones are beautiful and the packaging is also beautiful. I will always deal with gemselect . I wish them the luck and success "

"I recently ordered an apatite gem from their website. The shipment took one month because of the slow Italian post. I contacted the support multiple times and they have been always so kind and helpful. The gem is stunning and really well cut. They have a huge selection. I will buy from them again and again. "

"GemSelect website and service have been a very positive experience for me. As I am not a professional in gemmology or jewels in general, but rather an unprofessional gem collector, it has been very pleasant to browse the very comprehensive and versatile collection on GemSelect's website. The browsing is easy, as you can define your search by various criteria according to your interest. The website runs neatly also in mobile version. The information provided is also very professional and accurate, which makes it not just a fun pass-time, but also a reliable source of both information and the gems themselves. The delivery was also prompt and fast - My purchase was delivered within 10 days to Finland.
So, warmheartedly recommended both to professionals and hobbiests.

"It is always a bit daunting buying from a new supplier, especially when you purchase a gemstone online. After much research GemSelect had the exact stone I wanted. The purchase was easy, the shipping rates to Australia were great and the stone arrived within 4 days. It is the exact stone i saw on their website and spectacular. I will purchase again without hesitation."

"GemSelect is one of the most professional companies I have ever worked with. They were courteous, and handled my purchases with speed and accuracy. When I had questions about my order, Derek responded quickly and resolved a small matter in a very satisfactory manor. I would not hesitate to purchase from them again."

"Recently I purchased a beautiful violet spinel, tourmaline lot and golden apatite, following the purchase of a wonderful alexandrite gem. Having now made several purchases from GemSelect over a number of years, I'm always very happy with lovely gems which are accurately described, as well as fast shipping and excellent communication. Thank you Derek Lee & GemSelect."

"I ordered two Yellowish Green Tourmalines Octagon cut.
I am very happy with these gems! They are clean & great color saturation.
Also, Derek Lee was very helpful !
I will definetly keep you in mind for further gem purchases!!"

"I have had consistently great purchases from these folks for about 3 years now. I recently sent a pink tourmaline to a jeweler to be set and the jeweler raved about the high quality. I collect gemstones as a part of my mineral collection and this store is the only place I look anymore for cut stones."

"GemSelect gives professional and complete experience when it comes to buying gem online. The website is neatly designed and has in-depth search options. They show pictures and videos of the actual gem and not stock photos. They are fairly close to actual color & brilliance. Their Gem Information Center is also quite exhaustive.

In my case they also gave me personal advise to opt for registered mail than courier. Everything went smooth as they advised and I could save couple of dollars as well!"

"I ordered a denim sapphire with scissor cut and could not be more pleased! This stone is to be set in an engagement ring for my son's fiance and she wanted a lighter colored sapphire. The cut and clarity are perfect! This will make an exquisite setting! The customer care was perfect, also! I knew each step of the shipping process. I will definitely be a return customer!"

"Very honest, very reliable, very professional. I have obtained several stones from GemSelect and have always been pleased with the product and the service."

"Have been buying from GemSelect now monthly for some time. The customer service could not be better. Shipping charges are most reasonable coming from oversees. Have been buying gems for myself and my jewelry business and I and my customers have been totally satisfied with the top quality of the gems. Not only highly recommend this business, but I will definitely continue to buy gems from them; several gems have not been able to locate elsewhere. And the information and the newsletters are invaluable, with some topics covered better on GemSelect than wikipedia. To date, I have never had to return an order for any reason. This is not a solicited review, but totally written by this buyer and my own inspiration as relates to my own experiences with GemSelect."
