In fact, their Reports are Extremely <strong>Accurate <\/strong>and Precise. They have the most Trusted Certificates in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>\nBut, if GIA is Grading a Low Quality (BAD) Diamond, guess what? <strong>They are going to Grade it Low!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>They Call it like they See it!<\/h2>\n<p>\nIf the Diamond is Bad, <strong>GIA will say it&#8217;s Bad<\/strong>. If the Diamond is Good, they will say it&#8217;s Good. It all depends on what the Quality of Diamond is.<\/p>\n<p>\nGIA doesn&#8217;t make the Diamond out to be Better or Worse than it is.<\/p>\n<p>\nGIA Evaluates a Diamond for a ton of <strong>Criteria<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>\nThe 4 C&#8217;s, Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat Weight. They look at the Polish and Symmetry of the Stone. They look at the Girdle and Culet size. They judge a Diamond by every Characteristic they can. <strong>They look at Fluorescence<\/strong> and other Identifying Marks, <strong>EVERYTHING!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nEvery Diamond is examined by 4 experts before a Final Grade is given. You really can&#8217;t get <strong>a more Precise Evaluation<\/strong> of a Diamond than what GIA can give you.<\/p>\n<p><h2>It is what it is!<\/h2>\n<p>\nIf the Diamond is a Poor Quality Stone, like I3 Clarity, M Color, they will list it on the Report. GIA (<strong>the Founders of the 4 C&#8217;s<\/strong>) prides itself in the fact that they are Honest and Authoritative. <strong>A Bad Diamond is a Bad Diamond<\/strong>. Period!<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>My only Question is:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>Why Certify Bad Diamonds?<\/h2>\n<p>\nIf a Diamond is the Lowest Quality there is, then why do Jewelers bother Certifying it in the first place?<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Certificates Cost Money!<\/strong> (A Couple of Hundred Dollars) So why do it if it Costs that much?<\/p>\n<p>\nThe main reason why Jewelers Certify these Low Quality Stones is&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>To make the Diamond Look Better and Sound Better!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nWhen customers see that a Diamond is GIA Certified, they quickly think&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><h2>&#8220;This Diamond MUST be Good!&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>WRONG!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jewelers can Certify any Diamond they want: <strong>Good or Bad!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>GIA doesn&#8217;t choose what Diamonds they Certify<\/strong>. They get paid to Certify any Diamond that is sent to them. So if a Jeweler sends in a Poor Quality Diamond, they will get a Poor Quality Report (meaning Accurate) back. <strong>Simple as that<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nJewelers know if a Diamond has a Report with it, especially GIA, the Diamond has a better chance of Selling!<\/p>\n<p><h2>GIA Doesn&#8217;t Grade Bad!<\/h2>\n<p>\nGIA Grades it like it is.<\/p>\n<p>\nIf the Stone is Bad, that doesn&#8217;t reflect on the Report itself. The Report only puts that Quality of that Diamond in Writing.<\/p>\n<p><h2>Bad Diamonds = Bad Reports!<\/h2>\n<p>Be Happy that <strong>GIA Doesn&#8217;t Sugar Coat it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nWith GIA,<strong> you get what you Pay for!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jamesallen.com\/loose-diamonds\/round-cut\/?CaratFrom=1.00&#038;CaratTo=15.00&#038;Color=F,E,D&#038;Clarity=VS2,VS1,VVS2,VVS1,IF&#038;Cut=Ideal,Excellent,TrueHearts&#038;PriceFrom=200&#038;PriceTo=999000&#038;Sort=Price,%20DefaultOrder&#038;ViewsOptions=Images&#038;advancedParameter=Sort&#038;showAdvanced=show&#038;Polish=EX,ID&#038;Symmetry=EX,ID&#038;Lab=GIA&#038;Flour=None,Negligible&#038;DepthFrom=45.0&#038;DepthTo=80.0&#038;TableFrom=50.0&#038;TableTo=83.0?a_aid=JSDG\">See some incredible GIA certified diamonds here!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Cheers! :)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Think about this for a minute: GIA (The Gemological Institute of America) Grades BAD Diamonds!
