Well, it would appear that someone should start a thread or two.I have an
interest in several areas:
Seems to me that the price to quality ratio of Australian opal rough has
taken a real turn for the worse of late. I think it is causing a lot of small
time U.S. dealers to throw in the towel. Many U.S. “hobby” Cutters also seem
to be abandoning opal altogether or are switching to more “predictable”
material for this reason. Anyone have some thoughts on this or perhaps some
inside info?
What is “wholesale” on gems in general these days? I surf the web for gem
info and get flyers by snail mail most of which claim to be “wholesale”. Yet
prices for like items vary greatly!
Ilive within an easy drive of one of California’s premier Tourmaline mines. I
go there to buy rough pink tourmaline. If you don’t know already, this is
the best pink tourmaline on the world, Bubble gum pink, no brownish cast like
that stuff from S.A. My sons and I facet this material (to order if needed),
we cut for brilliance not weight. Anyone interested in purchasing some of
these stones?
Well, there you have three thing to start talking/posting about (I know that
last one is a bit self serving. Sorry if I offended anyone out there).

to whom it may concern…
My name is Marc Williams. Some time ago I signed up to receive the on line
forum for jewelry. I had received entries from Orchid for about three weeks,
now i don’t get any E mail from any of the members. Was my subscription
cancelled. If so I would like to know why. If not I would like to know what
is
going on with the forum and why I am not receiving it anymore.
I appreciate you looking into this matter for me, and also appreciate any
help
you can offer to get me back in Orchid. One thing I might add. I often
recieved notices to cancell my subscriptiion. Why were these sent to me and
were they sent to other members or to just myself. If I did something wrong
please let me know.
Thank You very much,
Marc Willams
