At one point several years ago Charles & Colvard had an "Authorized Moissanite Retailer" program through which the various Moissanite vendors would be listed on Moissanite.com as long as they were adhering to the pricing and advertisizing guidelines set forth by Charles & Colvard. However this program was discontinued when Charles & Colvard began selling directly to the public via Moissanite.com. If one researches Moissanite and Moissanite vendors online, one may still find some websites online still making reference to ths program, stating that they are an "Authorized" retailer, but in reality no such program currently exists.
