Oh lord that's precious.

The trade website is a lot to take in for someone truly new.

There's a video (part 1 of 3) from ItsYoji, who is rather funny, it's a bit outdated now though, but it's better than nothing.

If you go to the top url and type in 'First Snow' it will auto fill for you. Clicking the text, then hitting Enter or the Search button will show you a huge list of 99 people who will trade you the gem for the listed currency (1 Cartographer's chisel, 1 alchemy orb, etc). You then click the little 'whisper' text in the bottom right of the box. When you tab back into your game, hitting <Enter> to bring up chat (make sure your chat box is empty), then hitting <Ctrl> + <v> will paste an auto-generated message into your chat box. Hitting <Enter> again will cause this lovely message to be shipped to the seller, who will then either invite you to their party, or ignore you because they are afk.

The first couple people you whisper will probably be afk. Sometimes the first 5 or 6 will be. Keep trying (give them 30-60s to respond, as Yoji says in the video, sometimes people are doing hard content, and can't stop to whisper you back). Eventually, once someone invites you to their party, right click their portrait in the top left of the screen, and click on the button 'visit hideout'. There, they will be waiting with your item. Have your currency payment pulled out before hand, mouse over their offered item (the jewel), and hit accept. You now have a brand new item!
