    I like to have the client email his phone number to me so that I can
    call him and have a discussion about the transaction. I think the
    best way to get paid for high value items sold on line is for the
    client to wire transfer a deposit into your company bank account. If
    he decides to buy the stone, he can then wire the rest of the money
    to the account. If he decides to not buy, the seller can wire the
    deposit back to him.  Any other method is subject to some kind of
    charge back. The banks in Canada will put a 6 week hold on any
    payments made by paper originating in the United States; ie: money
    orders, cashiers cheques, personal cheques, etc. The counterfeiting
    techniques are so good now that nothing printed on paper is safe. 

    Other than a few crazy geologists, who would ever have thought that
    Canada would become a player in the diamond trade?? 

all the best
Bill
