Hello everyone! It's so nice to find a thread like this for jade lovers.

I've been looking at some bangles on Jadeite Room etsy shop and they sure look lovely. Has anyone had any experience purchasing from this shop? Do they sell A grade jade?

There has been a page in this thread regarding JojoJade by a member "Henry James" summing up how this site is basically a middleman in which they find and steal those picture from a Chinese website named Taobao and then lists them on his website and proceed to overprice the item. But if you still wish to buy from him, then you won't be scammed apparently.

I thought they're really good since their number one on the list here.

Oh, yes, I've bought a few bangles from them. They provide certs and they look authentic. I've never sent them for testing. Those that I've bought from them are quite unique like round square cuts, a nice black, a grey green, a grey purple and a lavender. The only thing I would say that's not good about Jadeite Room is they can increase prices suddenly if a certain item is favourited by a few people. So I refrain from favouriting their items - I look for them again through my recently viewed items

There are also a few members here who talked about jojojade and recommended him before they knew the site was a middleman, one of them tried asking for their lowest price which was still pretty high. Good thing is he really does bring you what you ask for (being untreated jade), albeit probably not worth the price if you now know he raises the price on his site whilst taking pictures off of listing from a Chinese e-commerce site.

Can you link me to the store? I can't seem to find it.
Edit: Nevermind I found her shop and first thing I'm suspicious about is their pricings on most of their pieces.

Hi. Has anyone here ever purchased from Chihirojade on eBay? They have good reviews there, but I don’t see them mentioned anywhere else, and all the cloudy looking spots on the piece below makes me hesitant.

I've never bought from them but have seen their listings before and I'd say proceed with caution cause the prices don't match the type of quality those jade bangles are listed for in my opinion and based on how much those really go for.

ok, I see. Thank you. Yes, the prices made me a bit hesitant at first as well, but I was hoping that was just due to the pieces having cracks or something like that.
