Hi Lavon,
Thanks for the pricing info., but I do think we will need to know more about the pearls themselves. Round are more expensive than baroque, and surface quality plays a huge part. Does the seller even list them on a scale? I know CFWP use the A-AAA scale, with + signs added to show a grade in between (AA+ is between AA and AAA) and Tahitians grade A-D with A being the highest. Although even these grades are not really standardized, so one companies AAA might be another's AA or even A(for the more devious sellers). Have you bought from them before? If so, please post a picture so we can give you a better idea. If not, I would certainly ask for photos to be sent. And and ask for photos of the ACTUAL pearls you are purchasing, not a stock photo of their inventory. Color, shape, luster, orient, plus others I can't think of all go into pricing. God luck with it. I hope you have a good supplier. Keep us informed.
