Elisha Morgan Gemologists, Kashmir-Sapphires, New England Gem Lab, Old European Diamonds Exercise extreme caution and protect your valuables Austin Texas

In response to Mr. Morgan, I have created a "snakeyell" profile so as not to be harassed by a former Navy Seal-turned-Blackwater contractor who has demonstrated questionable judgment with regard to morality.

Mr. Morgan may very well be a capable gemologist, but that in itself does not make an honest businessman. Thus, before doing business with Mr. Morgan, I recommend you ask yourself a number of questions, including:

Why would an accredited gemologist with a self-proclaimed "solid" reputation change his name (from Elisha to Ralph)? Perhaps it has to do with his ties to Blackwater (which itself changed names to Xe Services LLC). Or, perhaps that's just a convenient way to create a new path for search engines, which previously led background researchers to a history of complaints, both formal and informal. And why would an honest gemologist need a criminal defense lawyer?

And...Why would "the gemologist formerly known as Elisha" register his business with a P.O. Box in New Hampshire, operate in Vermont, move to Texas, and so on? The man has to be mobile, for sure, but could it be, as I learned, that it's much, much harder to organize legal authorities to prosecute across state lines?

Old European and mine cut diamonds and other precious stones may not have the appraisal price you want, unless you find a specialist who understands their sentimental and historical value. Modern cutting techniques are much better than they were 100 years ago. That's why I took a BIG risk and chose to do business with Mr. Morgan.

I lost--and so have a few others whose stories I've heard since. Frankly, I never received an adequate explanation of what happened exactly to items Mr. Morgan simply declared as lost. Rather, I received a phone number for a criminal defense attorney.

So...As with any venture of this kind, do your due diligence. If you don't, you might just blink and find your prized antique/heirloom/family jewelry has disappeared.



 

"Snakeyell's" complaint is without merit. Issues mentioned have either been resolved or did not exist. Our search to determine who "Snakeyell" is or if there is in fact a "Snakeyell" has turned up nothing.
