The following is a list of questions frequently asked by those filing a claim under the DeBeers class action lawsuit.  These answers to these questions are meant for those filing claims who purchased gem quality diamonds for resale. 

Q. I’m in the Indirect/Reseller Class and am filling out the claim form.  On pages 5 (for Year One) and 6 (for Year Two), I’m asked to list my diamond jewelry purchases in various prices ranges, and to "check only one"  - either “diamond only” jewelry or “mixed stone” jewelry.  The problem is that I made purchases of both “diamond only” jewelry and “mixed stone” jewelry in each of the price ranges.  How should I fill out the form?

A. The "check only one" language on the form was a mistake and has now been corrected.  Many resellers purchased both diamond-only jewelry and mixed-stone jewelry during the claim period.  A new, corrected, form is available on this website or at www.diamondsclassaction.com.  The corrected form clearly allows resellers to claim purchases of diamond-only jewelry and mixed-stone jewelry.
