Quick Post: Understanding the Tianyu Moissanite and Lab Diamond Livestream Sales

I, like many confused /r/moissanite redditors, was ready to jump into the latest Tianyu livestream hoping for great deals on moissanites (and maybe even a lab diamond to boot!). However, it was incredibly confusing and I wanted to jot down some quick notes. 

1) The livestream is available on the Alibaba app when you navigate to the Tianyu Moissanite page. I wasn't able to find any other places that the livestream was offered (like their web Alibaba page or their instagram). 

2) The content of the livestream seemed more general and less deals focused. I joined about 10 minutes late so I'm not sure who the presenters were, but they spent most if not all of the 30 minutes I was on talking about moissanites in general, comparing them to lab diamonds, etc. They also showed some of the 2ct+ plus stones on sale, but then went back to more general talk. 

3) The catalogue of featured stones was available in the bottom left of the chat. That seemed to be the most "featured" set of offers they had for the livestream. I also requested the catalogue and got the same information. 

4) The "50% off stock jewelry" appears to only be the items they have on their main Alibaba webpage. I couldn't find any exclusive livestream deals. Vanessa also confirmed that one "in stock" item I was interested in was not part of the sale. So, looks like you didn't need to join in order to get those moissanite deals. 

5) Tips for next time. I only made it about 20-30 minutes in the livestream trying to figure out what was going on, but it looks like for future deal hunters:

  • When the livestream starts, click on the catalogue and see if you're interested in any deals.
  • The fastest way to see if an item is discounted is to use the website and message Tianyu to confirm if an item is eligible for promotion.


Did I miss anything? Did anyone actually order something from the sale?
