Anyone know of a good independent appraiser in the DC/MD/VA area? I looked on the ASA website and found one in the area. I sent an email inquiring about services and got a response saying that she would rather be my BROKER than APPRAISER since she is also a dealer and can get diamonds at *only* 10% above cost which NO ONE else does. Well this left a bad taste in my mouth. I don't have a problem sending the stone out of state to an appraiser however I would initially like to get one done locally right away as I am buying online and have a limited amount of time to return if there is a problem.

The best guy around us is Martin Fuller. He's in Tysons Corner, VA. I don't have his number offhand, but its listed under "Fuller and Associates".

He aint cheap, but he's thorough...

Thanks a lot. Is it me or was that inappropriate for the first appriaser I contacted to only mention her diamond dealing services with no mention of appraisal servcies?

Yes it was inappropriate. You should also check the ISA website for appraisers, they may have someone in your area.
