Anyone going to the International Gem & Jewelry Show in Anaheim?

We got free complimentary tickets from the jeweler where DH got my e-ring; she is one of the vendors at the show. Since it''s free and I went with him to the car show couple months ago, I am dragging my husband to go with me. I''ve never been to one, so I am kind of excited.

When is the show? If the time is right, I might actually make a trip down there since my sis lives in SoCal.

It''s this weekend. Here''s their website: http://www.intergem.net for their entire schedule. They go all over the U.S. I never heard of the show til we got the postcard in the mail.

You will have such a great time, Qtiekiki. I live in the DC metro area and have been going to these shows for 15 years. The majority of my collection has come from the shows. There are some great deals, but you do need to educate yourself and be prepared to negotiate -- which is part of the fun for me.

The same vendors travel around from city to city, so the vendors you see in Anaheim are the same ones I see in DC/VA. Have a fun time and enjoy all those sparlies!!!!!

No, but we are going to the one in Santa Monica on March 31-April 2. I''m actually looking forward to it!!
