its 5200 carats. From lots and lots and lots of looking around and comparisons, that grade is considered high with the best stuff at $6 a carat. from what i've seen priced, mine is approximately $5 carat material. I see a little ritchterite, too. Is any of it gel? I have some gel cabs. NEVER parting with those. LOL! Yeah, pictures dont show it, but its a translucent sugilite. |

realrockhound what Tela said. I seriously had to think about where Vince's Nitro pills were for a minute there. The fire obsidian is a beauty. How much does that Sugilte weigh? Last time I looked, and it was a while ago, people were selling it by the carat. It wasn't that nice old stock stuff, either. ETA: Never mind, changed gram to carat (cuz that's what I meant - duh) and you answered my other question. LOL!

At least give me enough time to get the Nitro pills.  |
