Hello Lee;

>     asking price or the buying price? 

    I don't really know what you're asking. I assume that's the buying
    price. That's the most recent price I was given by a specific guy who
    buys them, and I assume the range covers small to large diamonds and
    would depentd on whether they can be re-cut, if they're big enough,
    or if they can only be used to make abraisives. I've heard those
    prices before from others, so my impression is that they're fairly
    typical. You'd just have to send them and get a price over the phone,
    then decide if you want to accept that.
