Buying Beads

Sharon sent me these suggestions for those beaders who like to order beads online.

We have had several occurences with our beading exprience and some of our friends also.  We kept pictures of what we were ordering along with the a copy of the order, but when I received it, it was total different beads, and some unuseable.  Our friends experienced some never even arriving.  Remember to keep track of what you order till you verify your order and product received matches, and is useable.  Nothing worse than getting garbage or unwanted beads to slow down the show schedules. 
Some very sensible advice there Sharon, thanks!
