The video (very end) and the website both say 192k. Where did you see 2150?
- hnbad 3y agoThe appraisal at the end of the video says "$2,375" according to the transcript (was watching without audio) and the sample appraisal (which I guess as your sibling pointed out was just meant as a sample of what an appraisal would look like, in which case I think it would have been better form not to include actual numbers) lists $2150 which is close to that value so I assumed that's the actual appraisal. Given that the sample actually shows a ring and refers to it in the full text, that's obviously not referring to the object but now I'm wondering about the $2,375 figure in the transcript. Is that just a really bad auto-transcription error?
- nickburns 3y agocut morganite retails for ~$300 USD/ct. this finished gem is a smidge over 297 carats.
- hnbad 3y agoThat explains the listed price, it doesn't explain the disparity to the transcript. Given the comments, I presume he said a different figure in the audio track than the transcript (and therefore subtitles) says?

- Gare 3y agoYes, he said $192 375
- rkagerer 3y agoHow much was the stone he started with?
- nickburns 3y ago700 carats
- rkagerer 3y agoI meant in $
- nickburns 3y agoohhh. never mentioned.
- IAmGraydon 3y agoI’m guessing that uncut stone was around $40,000, but he never says because he clearly doesn’t want to reveal his margins.
- axlee 3y agoI'd have thought that the bigger the gem, the larger the markup.
- Karliss 3y agoYes seems like audio transcript error. The audio says 192375 instead of 2375 . Same number just the first few digits got cut off.
- rkagerer 3y agoWatched with subtitles and audio, and there are lots of errors in the transcript.
- junon 3y agoThe funniest error was [Music] every time it was just a grinding noise.
- IAmGraydon 3y agoYeah my wife and I were chuckling at that too.
- Mtinie 3y agoThe “dot” for “dop” mistakes were curious, not because they existed, but that the transcription engine got it right a few times.
