Amazonite scams on Czech e-shops
.
The situation on Czech e-shops is similar to the situation on AliExpress. The most common scams on Czech e-shops are the sale of alleged Amazonite made of ordinary quartz. Another problem of Czech e-shops is the dyed variants of Amazonite, the dyeing is often not mentioned in the product descriptions. Because the dyeing is usually deep, the coloured Amazonites cannot be tested in various liquids to verify whether it is dyed. Verification by Gemologists is necessary here.
