    If you put a length of wire, say a few feet or so, in a sturdy vise,
    put a gentle bend into it to give it some slack, then give the other
    end a sharp yank with a pair of draw tongs the whole thing should
    straighten up pretty quick. 

    I know it's not a supplier of straight wire, but it beats
    straightening individual earrings by hand while you're waiting for
    shipping.
