well, my trader is furious. says he has been selling African trade beads for 22 years and he knows them! he is angry enough that he wants me to send all of the beads back that i bought from him last week even though the others are fine and i paid a fair price for them. i feel sorry for the traders that are getting hit with the fakes and they do not know it and pay way more than they should. he is concerned about his future and i don't blame him.
