A guide for novices to avoid pitfalls. Learn these 3 points and you won’t have to worry about buying jade anymore.

A few years ago, before the Internet became popular, jade was still a sacred jewel. Except for a few jade distribution centers such as Sihui, Pingzhou, Jieyang and Ruili, people across the country rarely had access to jade on a large scale.


Generally speaking, we see jadeite on TV, where a celebrity wears an imperial green jadeite worth tens of millions, or a piece of jewelry is sold at a sky-high price at an auction house, which creates an illusion that jadeite only belongs to the rich class.

For various reasons, many people don't know that jade actually ranges from tens of dollars to tens of millions. If you want to buy a peace locket for your child, you can freely choose from a few hundred to tens of thousands. The Internet makes information transparent and makes purchasing more convenient, but problems also arise. Most people don't just know how to choose jade.


First, newbies should not go directly to the jade wholesale market to buy jade.


Many people think that wholesale is a cheap deal, so they go to Ruili to buy jade enthusiastically. However, they don’t know that jade is not like gold and has no fixed price. The same piece of jade can be sold for tens of yuan or tens of thousands of yuan. Therefore, it is easy to be fooled if you go directly to the jade market to buy it.


Second, be wary of jadeite that is too cheap.


Jade is a natural mineral and is scarce. In recent years, good jade raw materials have become even less available. So when the other party asks for a very low price, you must be vigilant and wonder whether the jade is processed B-grade or C-grade jade, or whether it is not jade at all. There are several types of jade that look very similar to jade and must have a certificate. The certificate also depends on whether it is from a national testing agency or a third-party test.


Third, be cautious when purchasing on online platforms.


There are high-quality jade live broadcast rooms, but some people register a live broadcast room just to make money. What they show you and what they send to you are two different kinds of goods. There are even live broadcast rooms that send empty packages, and the store goes bankrupt after a few days. There is really no way to complain. Therefore, before buying jadeite through online channels, please fully understand the background of the live broadcast room, whether it has a physical store, how many years it has been in business, whether the live broadcast platform is reliable, etc.
