So. I went to the "Intergalactic Bead Show" on Saturday. I didn't enjoy myself and hardly thought it was worth the cost of admission. The vendors were all completely clueless about what they were selling and the customers were really rude. Rude as in pushing and ripping strands of beads out of my hand. (beads I wasn't even interested in buying)

Most of the vendors had things horribly overpriced. I found one vendor who actually knew what she was doing and was really nice. She had great prices so she got all my business. I'll forgive her of her ridiculous business name (www.beadivine.com)

There wasn't much there that I wanted that I couldn't get at FireMountaingems.com for up to 75% less in some cases. In conclusion, save your money, because this show just isn't worth it. If you're a glutton for punishment you can see the schedule of the show at www.beadshows.com.

I did buy a strand of freshwater pearls from beadivine
