Not on ebay, but honestly...

This time last year I purchased a bunch of scruffy giant freshwater cultured pearls. Here are the two necklaces I have left (they were popular When I first saw them, I had a hard time believing they were real. Now, I wonder -- how large can they go? Can they breed giant mollusks? Apparently, the Chinese are very resourceful. Thank goodness they are tenacious

Hi Salem
Don't feel embarrased. Your comments borought the scrutiny of this forum to the seller. Jeremy did a good critique of thier selling tactics and you were absolutely right to count the pearls. I should done that too.
Just for fun, here is my 12+ actual size commercial grade dark steel gray CFWP strand. I bouthgt several strands of these in 2005 and have seen nothing like them for the price ($10)ever since.
