I saw this on ebay....

Hi! This IS an interesting lot. I asked the seller for the total weight of this package (since the shipping calculator states $16+ for shipping...seems steep if for only that which is pictured!) and, if I get an answer and it is not posted on the auction, I will let you gals know what I am told.

I heard back from the seller of this auction and this is what she had to say about some of the beads that she has up for sale (thought you might find it interesting)

"this is my first time selling anything on ebay so this is all new to me. As far as the lampwork beads go that is really the small part of the collection. I have three different strands of about 15 to 16 beads each. I belive that both are from loribeads she does beautiful work. (Lori Peterson) The other strand I believe is hers as well and it consists of beautiful mocha and green beads as well as beads that have frogs on them. I have a thrid strand that is black and red, I believe it was called chili peppers. I purchased them all on ebay and the Loribeads I paid almost 200.00 a piece for. I can try to send you personally pictures of these three strands if that would help. Please let me know, and once again thank you for your feedback and interest. Oh my reserve is in the hundreds"

It is a little rich for my blood but I am sure it is worth it.

Have a look at the feedback, a negative from Kseeber withdrawn.

I think if there is not a good description I would not bid too much on it. Large lots tend to go for more than they are worth on Ebay.

Ooooh, definitely worth it if the beads are Lori's. Cool find!

Oh!! I recognize them now! They bid on a set and won, and I never heard back from them until I filed and left neg feedback. We worked it out, though, and we both withdrew the feedback. It could have been a fluke.

They bought a set and didn't respond to invoices or emails. After I filed NPB and left negative feedback, they responded with a retaliatory feedback and some nasty emails. I didn't want the negative on my record, so I filed with square trade to have the negatives removed, and she agreed. This was over a year ago, though, so maybe it's not a big deal.
