Michael,
if you have read the threads and posts on this forum you must have been made aware, that pearls of that quality are most truly overprized in Japan. Why donīt you just go in on the sites of our members? They give you the same quality for less money and I as a buyer of pearls through the Internet can only say - you wonīt regret it!
good luck and let us know what you achieved and what your wife thinks of her birthday pearls.
