Missed Opportunity

This is a parcel of 7 - 10 carat each Mozambique Copper Bearing Tourmalines ... I had a chance to buy the parcel at $50 a carat . This is when the trade was calling the Pariaba Tourmalines from Brazil. I felt we should call them Mozambique, I spent a couple of weeks thinking about. I was to late... Now... I would be very lucky to get them at $2,500 a carat. The lesson is listen to your gut when it comes to gems, like the stock market things move up, but very rarely down in Fine GEMS.
