Hi Steve,

    Thanks for the input. Thanks to all who have responded. I am not
    interested in buying any or all 50 stones at this time. I don't even
    like all of them. 

    I am looking into Auctioning them as one woman suggested. Or doing
    what you suggested giving them to a vendor at a Gem show. I think
    the E-Bay thing has to many things that can go wrong from what I'm
    reading now. The regular customer that shops via the internet has
    many choices, I think stones catch a persons eye as you say. I can
    imagine not seeing the stone in person is a hinderance. I will try
    some of these variuos options and see if any work. I also will talk
    to my colored Gem dealers in downtown Portland amd pick thier
    brains. I will email the link Algemco you suggested also and see what
    happens. I am grateful for the feedback. I am interested in helping
    my customer and know there must be a way to get these stones seen by
    more potenial customers. Their are a few consinment business' locally
    and they take fine jewelry and get allot of visibility here. I hope
    to read more on this and many subjects in this Orchid Jewelers online
    help line. 

Thanks again, Barb.
May you all be busy and prosperous this Christmas season!
