  • Roy Steverwald $250 Rough Opal Parcel Unboxing Review
    Bought a $250 rough opal parcel from Roy Stevenwald off of facebook to see how he stacks up to other sellers. Turns out... he is pretty good. I got much better quality than I thought I would and I will 100% be buying off him in the future.

    Sandwich bags also weigh between 7-12 grams, depending on the brand, and style

      Hi. Yeah this has been one of the better parcels I have bought offline. Not a single piece without potential. The postal system here is getting hit hard at the moment. I takes ages but my parcels have been getting here slowly. Maybe a month or two to get to Norway =) Good luck!

      Yeah i think in just 3-4 stones it's paid for itself. Guessing prices have gone up like the rest of the market so I should do a few new rough parcel reviews.

      I think he is on a hiatus, unfortunately he had a bit of a rough time and was on a bit of a roller coaster mentally. He may be back at some stage though, I am hopeful anyway.

    Bought some off ebay from a deseased estate, got a piece thats 80 carats thats full rainbow colours just like the one you have with a straight colour bar, but mine has about 6 colour bars stacked ontop of each other like 60% colour, getting it cut soon fingers crossed it has a nice pattern or something to go with it

    • @RoysRocks
      @RoysRocks  Před 2 lety +1

      Sounds like a great stone and with a few skilled slices on the saw, might become multiple great finished gems.

      That is quite disappointing to hear. I haven't cut many of these pieces of rough yet but the ones I have turned out amazing so far.

    Some people are pretty thick at time's. To quick to blame seller's without really looking into what's going on first. There's even people twice as thick who blame the seller after they have allready posted what their selling and it's out of their hands after that.😕

    • @RoysRocks
      @RoysRocks  Před 2 lety +1

      It is really tough for opal sellers out there. Expectations are in the clouds and I've seen perfectly good materials get sent back to sellers for refunds (which I have been lucky to snag a few times).
