Someone asked me to post more cute Ebay finds. Since I am mostly on a ban I thought I would share some super cute Ebay offerings as I come across them. I look mostly for saltwater strands, but this super cute strand from Pearl Paradise caught my attention. It has been listed for months at $90 with no buyers yet. I will post more finds as I come across them. :)

Pearl Paradise Exotics- 5-7mm, 14k gold clasp with a 30 day return policy.

Akoyas can be tough to buy on the resale market because they IMHO photograph so well that sometimes you may receive a strand without the luster or color you were expecting. So unless I am sure I am only posting pics from sellers with return policies.

I think this one is cute, 7mm white baroque Akoya's for $69. A bit more than I like to pay for this size on the resale market for this size, but I thought it is worth a mention. It is only 14 inches long (mostly un-knotted) and the strand is in need of a pearl bath. 10k gold clasp, 14 day returns and free shipping.

The shapes of those look like FWP, not akoya.

I think they look like Akoyas but thanks for the reply. Anyways I think I will retire this thread. Would hate to be wrong and have someone buy something because I posted it and turn out to be wrong.

Oh please don’t. A bunch of us are following because we like your style and pieces that fit it, not because we’re hoping for the greatest monetary deals in the world. I think any of us would buy something you found knowing that you’re just a consumer in good faith like we are! Any oopsies, well, it’s on whoever actually buys to either do more diligence or be okay with it. Goodness knows it’s difficult to judge sometimes!!

Hi @Lisa Loves Shiny - I'm looking for a single, honking pearl to hang from my Marla Aaron locks. I'm open to different types. Do you have any recommendations?

Not Lisa, but if you want big, budget is key. White South seas are big and price and quality varies. Golden south seas are an option too, but white is normally larger.

Edison pearls can get fairly good sized too.
