G'day again - Dave here. This was going to be a link directly to the 'Members Only' site, but I thought to myself - "Hey - Maybe you Guys need to know a little more about what's available."

Not a Bad idea eh? After all, what do you care about some Member's Only Area - it's just another Yada yada yada site  - right?

Hmmm.  NOT!

Well I guess it really depends what sort of problems you are having when it comes to jewelry.

Not enough of it maybe...

Wish!

No, this is a bit more on information and finding out things that you can't get anywhere else.

You see I spent a couple of years answering questions as one of the experts on AllExperts.com - part of the Major Search Engine on About.com - one of the most respected websites in the business. During that time I answered hundreds, if not thousands of questions, until in the end I just had to give it away. It was consuming my life (ask my wife - the REAL AllExpert).  :-)   Ohoh - now I'm in trouble...

During that time I found the same problems kept on being asked - over and over again. I built a database of Case Studies (like 'What's it Worth' Questions) and Hallmarking - especially those tricky little stamps from the UK.

Eventually I decided - As the Beatles might say - With a little Help from my Friends - to build a site designed to help clients (just like you) to understand just what they (YOU) needed to know.

I called it 'The Insider's Guide' because that's exactly what it is.

  • We have a qualified Manufacturing Jeweler - ON STAFF
  • We have a dedicated (some say fanatical) Antique Dealer - ON STAFF
  • We have a Jewelry Business Owner with 30 years retail experience - ON STAFF
  • We have a qualified University Lecturer and College Teacher - ON STAFF
  • We have a technical geek who designed ALL our 48 websites - ON STAFF
  • We have a WordPress Blog expert with years of know-how - ON STAFF
  • We have a Published Award winning author (copywriter) - ON STAFF

And hey - We also have a gemologist and Valuer - ON STAFF - but that's me...

Don't you think that instead of jumping from one site to another - from one search engine query to another - from weeks or even months of looking to solve YOUR Jewelry Problem - Wouldn't it be just a whole-lot easier - and a lot-less-time-consuming - to go where the experts are?

You bet!

So go look - use the Public Forum (don't HAVE to join) ask questions - get answers - read case studies - watch videos on jewelry and related (like gemstones) items. AND THEN JOIN.

It could provide the answers you were looking for.

So that's why we didn't send you straight there. I just wanted you to know - WHY!
