South American Crystal Collector Makes $2,689,000 Mistake... Willl You?

This story breaks my heart every time.
Allegedly, just two years after the discovery of Lapis Lazuli in 1967, a Chillean villager knocked on the door of a crystal collector's office in Santiago. The villager had driven hundreds of kilometres on his beaten-up truck carrying a giant chunk of Lapis Lazuli and he was looking to sell.
His asking price?
Five hundred dollars.
But the crystal collector was suspicious and assumed that a stone so large could only be fake.
Huge mistake.
It turns out that the stone was genuine and would have easily been the world's largest single piece of Lapis Lazuli at the time. Based on common pricing, that "chunk" could have been worth close to $3,000,000!
The crystal collector missed his chance to hit the jeweler's jackpot... and make history. Would you have made the same mistake then? Will you make it today?
For centuries, Lapis Lazuli has been one of the world's most valuable and spiritual stones.
Known for its spiritual powers and ability to unlock the Third Eye Chakra, Lapis Lazuli is found in only two places on earth - Afghanistan and Chile. Following the takeover of Afghanistan by an Islamic fundamentalist movement (you know the one.. the one that starts with "T" and ends with "ban"), crystal experts have been warning that the world's supply of Lapis Lazuli has been falling dangerously low.
And in this case, they're right.
After the Lapis Lazuli mines in Afghanistan all permanently stopped production, the only place on Earth Lapis Lazuli is still mined from is the remote Coquimbo Region of Chile, north of Santiago. Most believe the mine has only five years of supply left, which is why it's so amazing for us to offer this incredible price break.
Some retailers along Fifth Avenue are more than happy to charge you outrageous prices for this rarity. Not Karma Items. Staying true to our contrarian nature, we decided to lower the price of one of our rarest and most popular stones.
This stunning mala necklace (for those who don't know, a mala is an ancient Tibetan 'necklace' design that can be both worn as a piece of jewelry and used as a meditation tool) features 108 Lapis Lazuli beads beautifully smoothed by hand and blessed by Tibetan monks.
Each bead sparkles with the distinct ocean-blue hue of Lapis Lazuli. At most retailers, this many high quality Lapis Lazuli beads would cost hundreds of dollars.
