Default crazy idea

I seem to get these weird ideas lately... I got an idea of a web-based
shop that sells mainly swarovski crystals. Is this doomed idea, as in
Finland it's hard to get good crystals in gread variety? Where should I
start asking about prices etc. Or, any ideas of a good, cheap webstore
that sells few crystals to Finland.

Johanna,

I don't know of many European stores, but here in the US there are quite a
few Swarovski specialty stores online and a number of eBay sellers. Here are
a few (I know there are more):

www.rainbowsoflight.com
www.gerriscrystals.com
www.tobead.com
http://stores.ebay.com/Crystals-Xpress (free shipping in the US and she will
ship internationally. She's gotten a lot of my Swaro budget in the past.
Excellent prices, too)

They seem to be fairly popular here in the US, I don't see why it
wouldn't work just as well in Finland!

Maybe because of the prices.. My friend sells the swarovski
crystal"balls" (approx. 3-4cm diameter, 1-1.5") for 4 euros (roughly 5
usd) and there's one "crystal"seller, they don't sell anything else, but
crystals and stones (for feng shui etc...) and they charge for the
same item 12 euros (16 usd). That's why I was thinking if I could get
a good place where to get the crystals and I could keep lots of
different shapes and colors...
