Five tips for investing in jadeite gambling

The reason why gambling on stones attracts collectors' interest is the key word "gambling". When gambling on jadeite, the first thing to bet on is the quality of the jade material beneath the surface of the jadeite raw stone. Those who win the gamble will become rich overnight; those who lose the gamble will lose everything. This is the best description of gambling stone, the "crazy stone". Gambling on jadeite or gambling on goods refers to jadeite that is covered with a layer of weathered skin when it is mined. It is impossible to know the quality inside, and the quality can only be known after cutting. China's stone gambling culture has a long history. Legend has it that the ancestor of stone gambling is the famous "He's Bi" in history.

The reason why gambling on stones attracts collectors' interest is the key word "gambling". When gambling on jadeite, the first thing to bet on is the quality of the jade material beneath the surface of the jadeite raw stone. Those who win the gamble will become rich overnight; those who lose the gamble will lose everything. This is the best description of gambling stone, the "crazy stone". "I have cut countless stones over the years and encountered various situations," said Wang Pengcheng of "National Jewelry Trading Plaza", who has more than ten years of experience in gambling on stones. In his opinion, the most attractive thing about gambling on stones is its uncertainty. Even experts never dare to easily judge the quality of a piece of gambling stone. He once witnessed with his own eyes that a friend of his who knew nothing about gambling on jadeite, spent a few thousand yuan to pick out a jadeite that was not favored by all experts, and actually cut out top-quality jadeite. "The final price of this gambling stone reached 4 million yuan."

Five suggestions for gambling on gemstones. Chen Honggang, founder of the China International Gemstone Expo and gemstone appraiser, has some advice for many investors who want to collect gambling on gemstones: avoid the idea of ​​"getting rich overnight."

You need to have a certain amount of spare funds. To play gambling on stones, you must have a relatively ample financial reserve. Players generally need to prepare tens or even hundreds of thousands of yuan. Generally, people buy gambling stones worth about 10,000 yuan at a time, or about 10 pieces. The more you buy, the more you study. You have to be able to pay the "tuition fee". Look more and buy less.

Start small. First of all, the weight of the gambling stones should be started small. Players can first purchase 3 kg to 10 kg of gambling stones to study. If the gambling stones are too small, they are not worth studying, and if the gambling stones are too large, they are too complicated to study. Secondly, the price of the gambling stones should also start low. In the early stage, you can choose gambling stones priced within 10,000 yuan.

The market lacks standards and urgently needs to be regulated. As the organizer of this jade gambling stone exhibition, Wang Pengcheng said that the domestic jade gambling stone market began to become hot around 2005. He said that although the financial crisis has swept the market in the past two years, due to the scarcity of jade resources and other reasons, gambling stones as collectibles and as a means of investment have always been sought after by collectors, and the gambling stone market has also been rising.

The threshold for collecting is very low. Although there is huge room for appreciation, there are also market imperfections. In fact, my country's gambling stone market is still in its early stages.

Chen Honggang, founder of the China International Gem and Stone Expo and a gemstone appraiser, said that there are very few gambling stone clubs in the country and they are relatively small in scale. There are not many people who "play" gambling stones and the entire market is very loose.

In addition, rampant counterfeits are also a major problem that has always plagued the gambling stone market. "Currently, there are more than a dozen methods of counterfeiting in gambling on stones. The identification methods all follow the counterfeiting methods, and sometimes it takes a long time to catch up." Chen Honggang said worriedly.

The lack of standards in the gambling stone pricing system is also an important factor hindering the development of the market. "The price of gambling stones is basically determined by the gambling stone manufacturers themselves. In a sense, there is no unified pricing standard in the market for gambling stones," said Chen Honggang.

"The threshold for collecting gambling stones is very low, and it is very entertaining and interesting, and the market operation is relatively simple and easy," Chen Honggang analyzed. This proves from another perspective that there is huge room for development in the gambling stone market.
