GemPundit

I placed an order for an emerald that was just under $1000. Unfortunately, my order went missing and never reached me. The lack of communication and initiative from this business to inform me was disappointing. I had to start reaching out myself when the delay became excessive. They eventually offered me an alternative stone and ring, but the experience went downhill from there. After completing the second ring, they attempted to charge me an additional $300. When I questioned this sudden increase, particularly since the stone wasn't significantly larger, they revealed that the previous price was an error. It's frustrating to realize they were now trying to overcharge me for their mistake. The whole experience was marked by poor service and unreliability, especially for customers who are located overseas. Do not use this business

I recently purchased a gemstone with Gempundit. Miss Dheera provided me with an exemplary service for tracking the shipment of this purchase. The delivery was delayed due to the ongoing COVID 19 pandemic. She coordinated with the courier service and updated me on the transit steps.

Bought emerald totally different then wt they showed in picture and charged so much.spend so much money not worth and happy doing online purchase.

Had an awesome experience with Gempundit. Great service and wonderful blue sapphire ring for my wife. Mr. Shailendra helped me out in choosing the right gemstone and followed up till it was delivered right at my doorstep. Will definitely recommend gempundit to my friends and family.

Bought an emerald from Gempundit recently. Let me warn others of this horrible business... I had the worst experience of online shopping I've ever had, period.

(Scroll to the bottom and skip the review if you just want to see the side-by-side comparison picture)

1. The process of negotiating the price with a representative named Neel was enough to make me reconsider buying the gem 3 or 4 times. He used negotiating tactics of wearing down the buyer. It was so frustrating to have him not respond to my comments and concerns and filibuster me with some irrelevant details. He would make me read long long messages explaining their pricing and quality, which were all things I was already aware of. He really tested my patience time and time again and I ended up having to repeatedly type in capital letters because of my frustration with him. He was most likely just pasting scripts into our conversation. All business and looking to make a profit. Tbh, worse than no human warm. It was straight out infuriating talking to him. Imagine someone that is supposed to be there to serve you, ending up infuriating you because they are not listening to you, and forcing you to read the things that they are copying and pasting, just so they can wear down your patience. That's GemPundit.

2. When I received the item, the color of the emerald was starkly different from the pictures and videos they posted. Quite frankly, this was false advertising and misrepresentation. The color of the gem was clearly an unattractive blue green which is the color of many cheaper Zambian emeralds, whereas all the pictures and videos showed it being more of an apple/yellow green which made it look more like a Brazilian or even a Colombian emerald. The color which is one of the 4C's which we use to evaluate the cost of gems was grossly misrepresented. To make things worst, there was no brilliance in the stone either. I wanted to return it after taking one look at it. It was the same stone, they had just manipulated the lighting and perhaps even done some post-editing on the pictures and videos to make the stone appear to be a more desirable color.

3. The return process was insane. I've never had a more difficult return full of page after page of paperwork that had to be filled out. I had to pay import fees and pay for the shipping fee back, so I lost around $250 on a $2500 purchase. There was no return label, no forms that were partially filled out. There was no step by step process. They just gave me a few pieces of information I would need and I was on my own to figure out that I needed 5 different forms and had to go to UPS twice, plus call them on the phone once, just to figure out the correct protocol to sending the gem back to where it came from, India.

4. They received my return a week ago, and told me I would receive a refund within 3-4 business days. Obviously, I still haven't received my refund, even though I was supposed to by now. (UPDATE: It has been a full 12 days since they received my return and I was fearing never seeing that money again, so I opened a case through Paypal. I got my refund within 24 hours of taking this action...)

It blows my mind how such a big website (seemingly established) could have such bad business practices. Every step of the process of buying and then returning was really just so difficult, unpleasant and even horrible.
Honestly, they are the WORST online vendor I've ever bought from.
WILL NEVER EVER EVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN.

Gem pundit is a fraud company just like there top reviews here. Me alone with some friends ordered some opal rings... after selecting super premium stones... we received the basics. They send you videos of high quality stones making you believe its your order. Customer service excellent until you receive it... but once you realize they have cheated you upon receiving your ring. They are gone... save your money and stay away from Gem Pundit

Ordered size X and they confirmed it is the right size it turned out Y. Spent $80 on top for re sizing. Fraud

Should be banned in Australia

The experience with gempundit was unbeatable. I can challenge that no other e-commerce firm can provided such a great service with authentic gemstones. I bought a beautiful gold ring studded with beautiful natural srilankan sapphire for my mother. She loved the crafting. Thank you gempundit for providing such an excellent service. Cheers

I recently bought a piece of jewellery and right from the start I dealt with Aman who if I can say had a lot of knowledge. Aman thank you very much. Will buy again.

I recently bought an Emerald stone from Gempundit.com I would say I am more than satisfied with their product, delivery, packing and customer service (A 5 star for that).

The Gem came with a free certificate which is a very decent one and the customer service team will help you on your need. They are not keen on closing the deal as others do.

I got my space to shop and all my queries were attended.

Thanks to you guys! Keep it up.

Just like to thank you Rudra from gempundit to fix my problem very happy with his services thank u again

I wanted to by kashmiri blue sapphire 6.25 ratti for my daughter. I visited many websites but I didn’t found any satisfactory information according to price. I talked to Gempundit.com customer support team, They asked me to arrange this stone for me with images. They took some time for it but they provide me images and relevant information on my email id. I ordered this stone from gempundit.com. I received it in 3 days with free lab certificate. I am thankful.
