"Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I did receive my opal and ooooohhhhh my, what a beautiful, beautiful thing it is! It was well worth the wait (not opal-trader's fault at all) and I've also made a new friend in Australia. I haven't had it mounted yet, but I'm going to soon. You have been a great, great help in my purchase and your company has my complete loyalty. I really would like to a purchase a larger stone when I get the chance. Thanks again for your total support and I will talk to you soon." RK- USA
