One of the major problems with running a company for International clients is the wording of the English language.
Apart from the two examples in the title of this post, there is also the problems with the words 'JEWELRY APPRAISALS' and 'JEWELLERY VALUATION' which basically mean the same thing - but to different parts of the world.
Another classic for the Jewelry Trade is 'CARAT' vs 'KARAT' and the mixup up between the quality of gold and the weight of gemstones.
Phew! Why do we bother?
Well the good news is at the Valuation Appraisal Center the online software program which anyone can use, takes all these things into account depending on which country you are from, and then prints out a Certificate in your currency (choice of seven) with all this little spellings taken into account. How cool is that?
