@WowwGirl thats why you will never find me buying stones over the internet. I can say from experience that the best source to get crystals from is from a wholeseller who supplies to other gemshops as they are the closest to the ones who actually get the mineral out of the ground. Only problem was my the wholeseller i know moved to another province so i was left with the local gemshops who can source their stones from anyone they choose..

@WowwGirl also good to get any desired stones from tradeshow vendors at exhibitions where wholesalers exhibit, id like to think that a vendor wouldnt take the chance of showing up with fake gems there and risk being called out by the other vendors or the organiser

@sp1dwoOfe221 ah Nelson.. There's only one way to deal with a bully. Meet me after school at the bicycle shed, bring any weapon you want.
