Sithy Gems Lapidary Sainul Mohamed Offered to cut my rough stone into gems. Stole most of my better rough and shipped me mostly low value cut stones not cut from my rough, or much lower value than they charged me to cut my rough. Akurana
I sent opal, white buffalo (Tonapah Nevada), turquise, variscite, purple adventurine, Texas Springs nevada pink chalcedony and gem quality green chalcedony. The agreement was they would cut my stone and return it. They stole most of the higher value stone I sent them. To add insult to injury, they sent me back very cheap stones, some color matched some not even color or type matched, and charged me the 50 cents per carat cutting fee to cut my rought stone on their junk they sent.
So they stole the best parts of my rough, AND they charged me $2,500 per kilo for their junk (worth around $180 per kilo) that they substituted for my rough they stole. Be careful of the Sri Lanka gem industry, it appears it is very corrupt and honest businesses may not even be permitted to operate as exporters to Western countries from Sri Lanka.
