I am enjoying this forum and have already learned a lot. For example, I never would have thought about whether I should or should not take my rep into a regular jewelry store. Now I know that it could result in embarrasing questions such as "where did you get this thing? You do know it isn't genuine don't you."

So thanks to each of you who took the time to look at my intro post and for your welcome. I am looking forward to learning more. Incidentally, I just learned that my package of two new reps from Andrew cleared customs and arrived in my local post office this morning. I don't know if it will be delivered today or wait until Monday.
