wow. look at this article i have just found online. http://www.capecodonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080827/LIFE/808270302
looks like that pearl must be worth a lot more than $4,500.
i'll offer $15,000. but i doubt that will even come close to what the owner will want after reading this article.

Hello Bill,
I'd be happy to get you in touch with the owner of this pearl, so please contact me.
Natural pearls are normally sold per carat weight and 1 gram (the estimated weight of this pearl) is 5 carats.
It's my personal opinion that your offer is higher than it needs to be, but if this quahog pearl is exactly what you want, that's worth something as well.
A wholesale dealer would most likely pay less than $200/carat for this color of quahog pearl, but naturally it would sell for more at retail.

VERY INTERESTED by: Bill Tierney
Does anyone know how much this could possibly be worth? it looks beautiful. I'm willing to spend $2,500. Is it worth that much? I love the color and I think the size of this is perfect for a ring for my girlfriend.
