Hi PearlNewbie--
I have bought various items-mostly pearls and beading gems and supplies on ebay. I would ask the seller if the pictured strand is the one the pearls are coming from. Sometimes they have a generic pic they reuse. I am not familiar with this seller. The pearls are off round, more rondelle, so even though the luster seems nice, they arent as valuable as round. Find out if they have any circles. None appear in the photo. Do you have a gauge to check the size if you order them? I have found some sellers fib about the size. Based on the amount, 4 pearls (measuring probably slightly less than 1 1/2 inch), the cost for a whole strand, approx 15 inches, would be approximately $160.00. That is not inexpensive. However if you only want the 4 pearls for special project, the investment isnt bad and the shipping reasonable. As far as the sellers feedback, it appears they have had a number of multiple sales, or repeat buyers, because the actual number of members who left a positive is much smaller than their total positive feedback. So I would ask the seller a few questions, and if you feel satisfied the pearls are substantially like the photo, and they are just what you are looking for --go for it!! Others will no doubt have some suggestions too.
