what a pleasure recieving these beads. I made a wrap around braclet and sold it right away

I ordered these square stone beads in hopes that the colors of at least a few would be close enough to make pairs (for earrings). All of these stones are different colors; they are often close, but none were close enough to look like matched pairs. The colors that I receives were not as vibrant as the picture protrayed; there were many of the light purple translucent beads and a few brownish colors, and only a few green or darker colors. The sizes and shapes are irregular as well. Some edges are rounded off so to not even appear square. The pre-drilled holes are fairly large for beading purposes and were a little off-center in many of the beads. If you just want accent beads in many colors, and perfect shape and size is not an issue, these seem a good buy. If you want to make pairs for earrings or such, you could buy several strands and hope you get similar colors, or look in person elsewhere.

Gemstone Cube Bead Mix 4 x 4mm Beads /15.5 Inch Strand; Love assortments - I found it to be exactly as I expected. Not only was I happy with my entire purchase from Beadaholic; but I was able to receive the product very promptly

They are of good quality and look great. I wish I could get the same beads in a larger size. too little.

These are beautiful beads and just as pictured in the photo(though they are smaller than in the photo, of course).

This is the most wonderful quanity of gem stones I have ever received. They are all absolutely beautiful. I got some shapes I have never worked with before which has helped me come up with new ideas. I loved them so much that I ordered the same thing the day they came in. As always, Beadaholique, lived up to their fast delivery, which was free because I bought $25 worth of merchandise, it was packaged for safety and they also will send me a free gift after a certain amount of orders. I just love this company and just realized today, something I ordered wasn't coming from them and I was upset with myself. Not naming the company, I have had trouble with this other company before. You can not loose if you go with Beadaholique.

What a cool, funky collection. I expected them to be mixed, but each type of bead comes on its own strand in a bag. These are great for making unique bracelets and necklaces.

I been using the the system for about 6 weeks mainly for movie, TV and gaming. The sound is great so far and I am satisfy. The 2 small speakers able to provide the surround sound feel and the bass is good. Thats amazing. This system does what it advertise. Some people say this system is not loud enough, but I would say it does have enough sound with reasonable/good quality. However, This is my second system because the first one was not working. It shut off randomly. The build quality is very cheap for the main unit. FYI, the inside component just a regular computer DVD rom hook up with a media motherboard. I got it for a great discount so that I don't complaint at all. But for the regular price $999, I guess I will go for something else. For a thousand dollar system, it should add some option, like extra optical/HDMI input and "Blu ray". Overall, The sound is fantastic and i enjoy it. But Just make sure you got the working unit. Pro Very easy to setup, just plug and play. Good surround sound feel (consider this is not the real 5.1) Enough bass Good sound for movie and gaming. Con Cheap built quality on the speaker and the main unit The sound of mid and high range is clean but could be better. It shut off randomly. Only 1 optical input (big mistake) No HDMI input Option for sound adjustment is very limit. Missing Blu ray.

When I bought my 55" plasma, I decided I needed a great sound system. I don't watch much TV, but my wife and I frequently have young Airmen from the base over to watch movies. You know, get them out of them dorm rooms and back into a family environment. So, I wanted a GREAT theater experience. I always heard Bose was the best, so I spent a little extra and got the 3-2-1 system. What a mistake! Ours frequently "freezes" up during the movie. Sometimes we have to wait as long as 5 minutes before continues. Often, we'll be at the END of the movie, it freezes, and then shuts down! I spent nearly 1K for this!!??

This Bose system is great. I can't say enough about it. It really sounds like you have speakers all around you. The power that comes from those tiny speakers is phenominal. Great quality and ease of use. It was very easy to set up and very easy to program and utilize remote for all equiptment. I wish we would have gotten the one that you can hook up an ipod to but for such a great system for under a grand, I think its well worth the money. I have been very impressed with great sound without big bulky speakers everywhere.

The Bose 321 system is extremely easy to set up and has outstanding sound quality for medium sized rooms. I not really sure why so many people are giving it low reviews... I'm sure it's mostly operator error or they are upset with the price. It is a Bose after all, they aren't known for being cheap.

I waited for years to replace my old system with what I hoped would be a premium quality system and was lured by the Bose reputation to this piece of junk. The speakers were everything I expected, but the disc player is an abomination. I can hardly play a movie without encountering a disc read error and even new out of the box CD's will skip or fail to read. I read on line about possible software problems and Bose customer service sent me new software to load that did help but did not resolve the issues. Update: Bose has contacted me since my posting offering to service the unit and extend the warranty. It cost me $29 to insure and ship it to them. We'll see if the problems are resolved.

I really didn't think there was so much to push-pins until my teenage daughter started getting silly over color matching all her stationery and school supplies. Somehow the question of the occasional desperate need for a push-pin came up, and when I proudly displayed what I thought were two distinctly different and versatile types of pins for different jobs I thought she would say something like, "way cool, ya guys got it covered." Instead, she turned her nose up at my push-pins and said something like, "YUK --- what NO COLORS?" But when I said there were 5 different colors she just nodded her head as though I just didn't get it. WELL - I GOT IT AND HERE THEY ARE! Special - Nice - Pretty and lots of them. Birthstones, all 12 of them. Oh, they work just fine too. There is much to recommend these push pins: 1] You get 100 push-pins. 2] There are 12 colors included in roughly equal number with both reds and greens coming with a translucent twin to differentiate between Garnet and Ruby for red and Emerald and Peridot for green. Very pretty, nice for parties or just for looking colorful or to personalize. My daughter "borrowed" all the July pins [Ruby] but decided that both the opaque and translucent red could be ruby. Right there 1/6 of my pins vanished and she did not even need them yet. Anyway, I don't need them yet either but they were so neat and special looking that I figured, like why wait till I need them and have to settle with some rough aluminum pin or some standard colors that everyone has. 3] They come in a nice transparent case so they are contained while you can see exactly what you have available. 4] The points easily pierce plasterboard and the holes are small enough to be painted over later if you remove the pin. 5] They work easily and are easily removed and reused. The only shortcoming is that the 3/8" point may not be long enough if you are using posterboard or any other material that has any thickness especially combined with any weight to the item you are hanging. In this case you may need a longer point. 1/2" or 5/8" are available, but some have a thicker point that may leave a hole too large to paint over so use as small a point as possible. Getting 100 of these in a hard container for 1 dollar [or a little more at brick and mortar outlets] is hard to beat. However, at smaller outlets they don't always have these gemstones and some manufacturers who also make them, call them "Birthstones" instead of "Gemstones" which they are by the way. Okay, now we have 3 kinds of push-pins and we are looking for some tasks for them.

This works only for small coins... I had to wait 2 weeks for it to be delivered.

I have a 16x loupe. I have been using it for years. When I saw this item with 30x, I ordered three without waiting. 10 days later, after my order I received the loupes and experienced them immadiately. Howewer the result was disappointing. My 16x old loupe was deffinitely magnifying better than 30x. I guess it is maximum 10x compared with my old 16x. All tree loupes are in my drower without being used.

Can not verify the 30x, but very clear. Very nice loupe and for the price you can not go wrong!

Good for the money. Plus: clear bright LED light. Cons: The magnification info is false. It is more likely 10x insted of 30x after I compared with several other magnifiers I hvae. I am disappointed b/ I already have a good 10x. BTW, the 20x loupe made by the same company is also no better than 10x. Buyer beaware.

Definitely not the 30x its sold as. But as cheap stocking stuffers for the kids, pretty good. (Their eyesite is great, so 10x, which is what these seem to be, is perfect for them.)
