On the Mohs scale of hardness, how soft is too soft for a ring that will be worn a lot?

Is africagems.com a fairly reputable site? I was looking at their alexandrite, and it's cheaper than I expected it to be, based on the description in the OP. Could it be cheaper because it doesn't have the green to red color change? Sorry if it's a dumb question. I'm still really new to gems in general, and I'm never sure about whether or not to trust websites. uberwekkness fucked around with this message at 22:02 on Sep 22, 2010 |

Does anyone have any recommendations for a seller? This is from a website I've been planning on buying from for a long while http://www.thenaturalsapphirecompany.com/nscnet/newsearchresults.aspx But yeah, they are more of a pine needle green. Perfect for Christmas? (If the link doesn't work, use advanced search, and for color, select "unique". Green will be on the second list.)

I think the store was rated okay in this thread, but you can at least get some ideas about pricing through their site and base your search from there. Man, sorry that this is late, but seconding this. My engagement/wedding ring came from there and it's lovely, and according to my husband, they were great to work with.
