Your digital download includes
- A 16-page PDF guide covering purchase planning, identity, treatments, laboratory reports, measurements, seller questions, costs, care and arrival checks.
- A one-page printable purchase checklist.
- An editable XLSX workbook comparing five candidates, with total-cost and item-price-per-carat formulas.
- A quick-start README and personal-use license.
Includes a seller inquiry template, a worked spreadsheet example and links to further gemological reading. The PDFs are US Letter size. Use a PDF reader and an XLSX-compatible spreadsheet application; extract the ZIP before opening the files.
Digital download only. No physical gemstone, jewelry or printed book is included. Download access is provided after payment confirmation. This is an educational planning toolkit, not a gem identification service, appraisal, certificate or investment recommendation. The workbook uses amounts you enter; it does not fetch exchange rates, calculate taxes or rank gemstone quality.
