Guest guest Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 Dear Respected Richard Ji No I didnt know this as I know enough not to buy a gemstone based on low price or on a picture unless there was a complete gemology report done with the gemstone.........if you deal direct with the mining companies in country of origin this can be done online when we first started takeing Rudra Center internationally we ran into a company called Astrology Mantra.com that sold the 5 Mukhi Rudraksha for $100 each........they had basic same picture we had on our website where we sell for $1....if a client went by price alone they would by from Astrology Mantra com..........however Astrology Mantra com is based in England and Rudra Center is based in the Source so there is a price differential that does not affect quality............. since you cant tell the quality of a rudraksha from price or a picture and since the Beads come from the same Rudrakasha forest we asked them why the sold for so much more their answer was that their Blessings and Energizeing Ceremonies were more powerful than most and warranted the higher price..........So I asked them....... It is known that Blessings from God are un conditional.......if you are Blessed By God you are Blessed.........How much more Blessed by God can you get for $99 more dollars......... and they did not answer...........so Rudra Center became one of the major leaders in the world for the high quality Nepal 5 Mukhi Rudraksha by showing picture and selling for $1 Some people who do not have the knowledge of the Rudraksha and pay $100 for a 5 Mukhi Bead think that it is impossible to buy one of good quality for $1 and we have had clients tell us this.........once we have educated them to the process of collection from same forest and our quality control methods to provide perfect rudraksha and the fact the are getting from the source and not a western priced company they become solid clients........so this has been our experience in the field of Rudraksha as clients have said how can you sell for so cheap.......our answer is that these are simply India prices and not based on western prices like AstrologyMantra.com In the world of Rudraksah due to the dramatic price differences world wide it is really not possible to tell the quality of a Rudraksha from low price and picture.......... so from what you have said this seems to vary from gemstone market in general however if a person goes online and buys their gemstones direct from the mines in country of origin who have started setting up their own cutting and gemology inspection services online then the closer you get to the supplier and the less expensive the stones become...........sometimes showing impossible prices for good quality stones Fairly certain this is all relative to what the person is educated to........if they are educated to high prices and they dont know to go to the source then they pay the price.......on the other hand if they go shopping after they get first estimate and find country of origin and mining company that is setting up its own cutting and gemology reports then prices get really low in some areas and gems are great hope this helps those who need Wishing all the Best DD In a message dated 5/7/2006 9:39:38 AM Pacific Standard Time, rsbj66 writes: > Subj: Re: GOOD gems are GOOD/BAD gems are BAD: To Whom it > may conc... > 5/7/2006 9:39:38 AM Pacific Standard Time > rsbj66 > Reply-to: sacred-objects > sacred-objects > Sent from the Internet > > > > Dear Sri DharmaDev ji, > > Please note that people can determine from the impossble low price the > gems are bad quality, not by the picture. > > Best rgds, > Richard > > People can see from thsacred-objects, > AumShiningLotus wrote: > > > >Dear Respected Richard Ji > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 Dear Respected Richard Ji Many Apologies as looks like I got everthing backwards regarding the Gemstones and the Navratna on our website.........we are going to be keeping gems on the website and upgradeing quality of gemstones............... and pictures representing gemstones that people were complaining about......... while takeing off the Navratna you were mentioning were junk...........totally opposite of what I thought we were going to be doing would be great if we could represent your Navratna on our website as your jewelry designs are by far the greatest seen to date.........regarding upgradeing gemstones at reasonable prices or the lowest prices found in marketplace as this is not a difficult issue for Rudra Center............ again we are able to shop the Mumbai gem markets at India prices and pass on to our clients............Mumbai Gem Markets are next to Gujarati Diamond Cutting Market where they cut almost 90% of world diamonds according to National Geographics Magazine......prices in Mumbai are the best and lowest you can find without going straight to mining companies in countries of origin so we will be happy to continue our gem offerings at lowest prices possible.............. and continue to upgrade pictures and quality of gemstones on our website as suggested............will also continue with gemologist certificate and India prices.........since all our gemstones come with a gemology report and money back guarantee this is a resonable way to provide the quality of what is needed to those who need and still make PGA happy campers Looks like everything is resolved in a good way Wishing all the Best Rudra Center America DharmaDev Arya In a message dated 5/7/2006 9:39:38 AM Pacific Standard Time, rsbj66 writes: > > > Dear Sri DharmaDev ji, > > Please note that people can determine from the impossble low price the > gems are bad quality, not by the picture. > > Best rgds, > Richard > > People can see from thsacred-objects, > AumShiningLotus wrote: > > > >Dear Respected Richard Ji > > > >Namaskar and thank you for posting this message as to whom it may > concern > >however sadly as it sounds Rudra Center home office has taken your > advise to > >heart and has decided to discontinue selling gemstones based on > pictures on our > >website............. that are actually representations of what can > be supplied > >to our cleints > > > >keeping in mind that no one but the supplier and wearer has ever > seen the > >gemstones we supply to our cleints who request gemologist reports I > cannot > >imagine how complainants on sacred objects group site can assume we > supplied bad > >gems by looking at pictures as I know of no gemologist report that > is based on a > >picture of a gemstone..............fact is we dont supply bad > gems......they > >were all a minimum of the ancient system of ..... eye clean > >gemstones.............as per conversations on Rudraksha Bead Society > Group site this last year > > > >still we will now abandon the stance that eye clean gems is the general > >standard for Jyotish Gems........your new system will actually make > a better > >gradeing system as now there is 10 power magnification and > microscopic inspection > >that can take the original qualifications of eye clean stones to the > nth degree > >in inspection........and price > > > >Difficulty all Astrological Recommendation will face now is if a client > >cannot afford........then how do you say no to them without leaving > them out and > >being responsible for putting negative spin on their lives.....we > dont know > >anyone who wants this kind of Karma backlash..............we found > this a real > >issue so we made it possible for clients to have eye clean Jyotish > >gems..........now seems eye clean gems are not enougth..........this > new gradeing system > >will most likely be refined again and again as we go forward and we > wish the > >gemstone experts the best of luck with this.......just hope the new > gradeing > >system can make room for those who cannot afford shoes and live day > to day for food > > > >Now we can also get back to doing what we do best and that is > supplying the > >Best of the Holy Rudraksha from their respective countries of > origin.........We > >still hope to supply the Navratna Lockets to those of our cleints > who wish > >this as they do sell more readily than the single gemstones.....so > in the future > >this group may still see Navratna items offered on the Rudra Center > website > >in Respect for Navratna > > > >Hope this helps to clarify our new decisions based on the > explanation of a > >more refined gradeing system than eye clean gemstones and the > complaints > >recieved from some of the individuals on the sacred objects group > > > >Wishing all the Best > > > >Rudra Center India and America > > > >DharmaDev Arya > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
