You know what I find very interesting? The company that you are referring to, posting that comparison picture, claims that in their experience this is the quality coming out of China. I would be willing to bet anyone a strand of Hanadama Japanese pearls that they have absolutely 0 experience purchasing akoya pearls in China. Also, showing a picture of what 'most' chinese akoya strands looks like and comparing it to a 'fine' japanese akoya?! That is just dishonest. Why not show what MOST japanese look like as a real comparison. 'Most' produced in both countries are total garbage! It is the selection of the best that matters....duh!!!!!!!!!!! The picture posted above of the Japanese strand likely shows 'most' japanese!

I really like your comparison. Although I agree it is just as absurd, it actually makes a much stronger and much, much more legitimate point that the not-so-well thoughtout post on that shill forum.
