I was reading the thread about Fire mountain. Most were unhappy. I use
delicas and Japanese Size 11 Seed beads and was wondering if these type of
beads were ok or were they like seconds?

The Japanese beads have a reputation for high quality and great uniformity.

who really should've used Delicas in the project she did last night and
paid dearly in cussing, stuck beads, and broken needles when she didn't

What is the Fire Mountain thread called? I tried to find it on my own
but I am woefully inept at this.

Nevermind -- I put FM in the search that Google wonderfully puts at the
top of the page and had a blast. The religious discussion was my
favorite!!!

Personally, I'd spend my seed bead money at Wimbeads/Out on a Whim,
Beki's store. (Not Becki's store)

That was a typo -- it's WHIMBEADS, not Wimbeads.......

I'm new to this forum, but this caught my eye.

Everytime I order from Fire Mountain I am surprised at how *GREAT*
their service is. Everyone I know who does bead work praises them.

Kat -- it's not about their service. It's about their morals. Despite
the fact that they support missing children, I will never order from
them. Ever.

Exactly my point as well. And, though I've heard this from Becki, she
wasn't the first person who told me about FMG's unethical practices.

I don't buy from places or people I know to be lacking in ethics and/or
morals. I'm funny that way. I buy dolphin-safe tuna, I don't buy
Kathy Lee Gifford K-Mart clothing, you know -- that kind of crazy, wild
thinking. I must be a nut!
