You're welcome, I'm sure!

My own interest in beads was inspired by the gift of a single Blue Russian from a total stranger. I was entranced. For years I struggled to find items to add to my collection, combing flea markets and questioning people, meeting so many interesting individuals... the beads became almost secondary to the quest.

With the advent of the internet and eBay, it became a simple case of "how much money do you want to spend".

It was a lot more fun when it was cheaper and more challenging. ;)

I'm not a philanthropist, Lynne, and I've done my share of selling on eBay...profits are not evil. But as I get older, the more pleasure I derive from seeing beautiful and cherised objects go to "the right person". You'll see; that person always comes along eventually. And you'll know that something you thought you owned...you were only holding for them.
