ARGH... I should have known better than to go shopping on a Wednesday night. I missed out on this little guy AND I didn't even get any shoes :(sad ;( ;(

If you bought it, please post some lovely pictures, it would sure cheer me up.

I always miss out too on Barry's latest drop. They are (it seems) sold immediately, good for Barry, not so good for me being a slower typer !

The three I was immediately drawn to were all sold..not that it matters, since I want to get some of mine set but still-I hope someone from here got them!

I know, right?
That being said....
I hate that I usually remember about his drops half an hour too late... :???:

At least you guys in the US get a fair crack at the whip! Try being in the UK, working out the time difference and then making sure you're not working or asleep when the next drop happens! :errrr:

Barry Bridgestock of acstones.com is a well respected lapidary with the CS community. His cutting is always superb, his photographs very representative, and an absolute joy and hoot to correspond with. He lists new gems once a week which we call his "drop". It's a bit of a race to get something you want on those nights because his gems are very quickly snapped up.

I believe it's Wednesday nights, 6pm MST (but Arizona doesn't observe DST, so that's always something to keep in mind!) or thereabouts.
