Well we didn’t expect this but the overwhelming response for passwords to the Jewelry Appraisal Network drove us NUTS!

It seems that everyone wanted access to the other sites (gems, appraisals, resources etc) and they were getting confused with which password went where.

Not good when clients and Members had a password for their Jewelry Appraisal Account - then another one for their Members FREE Jewelry appraisals - then ditto for the Gemstones - PLUS the Membership site password - AND FINALLY the Network password for the other websites.

So we solved it today by scrapping the passwords and logins to the Network sites (just one less thing to worry about).

Don’t forget for those of you who have a Jewelry Appraisal OR Gemstone Appraisal account - DO NOT use the same email address or username and password for your MEMBERS FREE APPRAISALS because that will effect your existing account.

So that’s it - another problem solved. It is now easier for you all to read and research all the other sites in the network simply by - well going there

I have been receiving so many emails and messages regarding Maker’s Marks and just what they mean that I had to write this post to explain it.

I have also included a short Video presentation - not from me, or anyone associated with our company - but from a small manufacturer in Texas. Hopefully it will explain in graphic detail, just how hard the Maker’s Mark problem really is, and just why it’s so easy for anyone in the world, to stamp their jewelry with anything they want.

But first - here is a recent question typical of the problem…

MARK ON GOLD RING Question:

I recently bought a sapphire ring with the mark “CH” near the 14K mark.

Do you know who/what this could be? OR, where I could find out?

Many thanks.

Laurie

Here is my Answer followed by the Video…

Answer: G’day Laurie and many thanks for your query.

There is no central registry of Maker’s Marks nor is there any legislation to force manufactures to comply to a regulated index of marks.

As you can imagine with the world largest jewelry manufacturing base being China and South East Asia - there is absolutly no way of expecting makers there to even care about registering their marks for the American, British or European markets.

It is simply their Identification stamp and it could be anyone. A good Video example of this (or Bad) can be found on our forum.

You might also like to add this query to my Jewelry Forum at http://www.online-jewelry-appraisals.net/jewelry-forum/ as other may have had a similar problem.

Can’t hurt anyway and who knows what answers you may get.

Hope this helps…
