Hey you all,
In a few months, a gem show is coming near me. "Near" being a relative word. In my neck of the woods "near" means 300 miles away. When (notice not "if") I won't know any of the venders nor will I have your advice to guide me. I will be able to see the stone in person. If I buy online, I'll be able to ask you all and tap into your experience. But I won't be able to see the stone.
I figure shipping is a wash because of the gas/food/lodging. But... because I plan to go anyhow, maybe I should factor it in. But, I plan to get some staples (Korean Food ingredients: anyone for Ddukppoki? or Bebimbop? ) that are just unheard of down here while in the area of a "big" city.
