    How do I know that the diamond I buy is conflict free?

    If the seller does not have the stone in stock and is selling a diamond from over seas, how can I be sure the diamond is conflict free?

    If seller claims that the stone is from a legitimate source, but the stone has no paper work showing where the diamond came from. Could this be a Blood diamond?

    I have been told that the majority of conflict diamonds originate from Liberia and Sierra Leone is this correct ?

    If I buy a diamond from one of these countries should I get proof that it is conflict free or benefiting the people in those countries?

    How can I be sure that the seller claiming to help the people of these war torn countries, is not exploiting the situation for their own profit?

    Buying a diamond online. Be very careful of internet sites, that list BOGUS certificates along side international recognised certificates.in order to give them and there BOGUS certificates credibility.

    Check if the certificates are in fact recognised, check the claims made by the seller.

    If they are BOGUS certificates shop somewhere else.
