| Yeah, I figured it would be a bit of a gamble - but they do have a good return policy so.... not too scared about that aspect of it.
I've been looking at the strands on Pearl Paradise (FOREVER!) and I just haven't seen anything that I like as far as the SHAPE goes for a price I can afford. Like I said, I prefer the more bulbous heavily grooved pearls (without the pointed ends - some of them almost look like gourds) and the lower priced strands seem to be mostly comprised of that "raindrop" shape which I just don't find attractive. Hopefully when everyone said "they look just like the photos" they actually MEANT it!
