I know nothing comes easy and I should be more patient sometimes. Thank you Birdi for the encouraging words. I found watching good Turquoise vendor sites a great help as well. You see great variations from a same mine as well as products from different mines. Great visual aids.

Here are the two I came across and watch regularly (haven't bought from them)

I am still struggling to see the difference between a waxed a dyed and a stabilized turquoise. Anyone? Please.
