Hello all,

    I recently went to my first gem show in Novi Mich. Actually it was
    mostly a bead show. I found some good buys, almost too good and I
    was wondering what everyone's opinion on these shows were? Which
    ones are the good ones, and which ones should you stay clear of? I
    was mostly interested in the cabochons, however, there were only a
    few vendors that had them. One vendor had precious and semi-precious
    stones, cabs and cut. The prices to me were very reasonable. I'm
    sure it's a matter of getting what you pay for but some of these
    stones looked as good as what I get from my catalog suppliers. some
    didn't. One vendor had turquoise. Large cabochons that to my
    untrained eye looked beautiful. I'm trying to find a reputable
    supplier, reasonably priced with good quality stones. Any
    suggestions would be very appreciated. I'm a newbie to the forum and
    to jewelry making and the help I get from this forum is
    irreplaceable. I'm hoping when I become more experienced I too will
    be able to contribute. 

Thanks for your support
Sue in Ohio
