Original Message:   a HUGE side note........
Every bead I posted from my collection of "repros" is a great bead in its own right, I do not discourage buying these beads whatsoever, in fact I believe a true collector should have some of these for purely comparisons sake! I also think that owning these types allows one to "feel" the differences between the authentic and the reproductions. Most of the beads I posted in this thread were bought as legit reproductions, although several were bought believing the sellers story. I say that if you like it and can afford it, buy it! I happen to think the newer repro Kiffas out of Indonesia are fantastic, mainly the smaller rounds on the strands not the triangles! Happy hunting! Thomas
