[Jewelry making - Article 01386] - [Orchid] Order problems with Asian Beads

    I am sorry to be posting this, but I feel obliged to warn my fellow
    Orchidians, since I ran into problems with a company I originally
    heard about on this forum. 

    I ordered several strands of beads from Asian Beads a few monthe
    ago. Some of them were great, but one (fairly expensive) strand
    arrived with several of the largest beads broken, and some
    rhodocrosite beads were so pale they were hardly pink, quite unlike
    the picture. 

    I returned these, but have been unable to get my money back. There
    is a credit waiting for me to order more possibly defective beads,
    but it does not include the shipping cost both ways that I paid in
    the defective strands. 

    I was hoping thaty knowing that I would post the results of the
    interaction to Orchid would convince Asian Beads to do the right
    thing. My emails are not being returned. This has been an expensive
    exercise. So be cautious about ordering from these folks. 

Noel
