    i really like the longer form content and deals, like to see the negotiation process

    Showing the comparison of the emeralds was great to get a visual
    Getting an even closer look at the two side by side would be awesome

    Im excited to see more long form videos! Would love to see videos of you going more in depth about why gems are worth what they are compared to others. You talk about it quite a bit in your videos but never really explain it. Not sure if it would be an exciting video but this stuff is really interesting.

    Loving the longer form! Very fun to watch the process! Would be cool to see a video breaking down the kinds of things you're looking for, the kinds of things you aren't as interested in!

    Most gem, shoe , chain dealers and entrepreneurs are pretentious ass holes ; You are so kind and respectful through these negotiations and it really inspires me to be more like this in tough dealings . You try to be fair to both situations in these situations and I appreciate seeing such communication between 2 dealers .

    The weird thing about these stones is that they change hands freakin' dozens of times and each time the seller makes a profit on them.. creating extra value out of thin air XD

    • @DerArbeitsloseHaider
      @DerArbeitsloseHaider 3 месяца назад

      All about contacts in the end. You might know people that look for special stones, which the current seller wont have/doesnt want to wait or work for to skip your part. Its all about who wants which stone and how long do you wanna sit on it.
      Similiar to the housing market often or even car flippers.

    What he says also make sense about expensive cars- after a while, they drop in price.
    Good precious stones are going up in price, just like big ticket items like houses. Inflation- money printing.
