Why should we trust your certificate more than it looking shiny? What exactly are you certifying and why should we believe you about it?

- nebulousthree 3y agoYou shouldn't trust any old certificate more than it looking shiny. But if a third party that you recognise and trust happens to recognise the jewelry or the jeweler themselves, and goes so far as to issue a certificate attesting to that, that becomes another piece of evidence to consider in your decision to purchase.
