Yes - that is the same range of prices I discovered in Tucson. The cheapest I saw - rather nice ones, even, though not the ones in diamond-shape with crackled surface (I personally like that most) - were offered at 60 Cents/gr., leading to a strand-price of 750 $ in this case (cannot recall the length of the strand, nor the number of beads, though). One Chinese amber-buyer was telling me (in Tucson) that nice resin beads are more and more in demand in China these days. Maybe due to high prices for old baltic amber? PS Tomorrow I will post a few pieces of costume-jewelry from Bohemia from the 1920's - 1930's. The great majority of them were adorned with "Peking-glass" cabochons, while suddenly certain pieces (from the area, maker and time) show cabochons of some kind of resin. I hope you might be able to say a few words about this material, though it will possibly be very difficult to make any judgement from photos alone.
