Yes, Daniel and Natasha have been nothing but nice, ready to assist in any way, and very speedy in their delivery whether it be a large or small order. And, IMHO, the Devardi glass has improved greatly since the first time it was introduced.

Oh, I do remember that. For some reason I thought it happened here... that was with Laura Brito, and he did replace the glass.

That's who it was, couldn't remember.
Even he got unpleasant on there, if you recall. |

Now your accusing me of something??? Please get over yourself. All you're doing now is trying to start an argument. There's no need for it. What you're saying is a falsehood and I won't be here to comment further. You seem to be a very mean-spirited person, making insinuations and accusations for no reason.
Regards, Jack |
Wow, talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Jack, as I said before, people are allowed to post where and when they see fit, that includes me.
With regard to pricing, a long time ago I determined that each bead I make costs me less than $5 plus my hourly wage. I don't care if I use gold leaf or the BE lustres or whatever, my bead is never going to cost me more than $5. Of course if I wanted to figure in all my torches, kilns, tools, generator, education, practice, etc., etc., I think I would have to value each bead at $500 each. lol I determine the price of each bead according to how much I like it. |

I do remember him getting frustrated, but I don't remember him getting really unpleasant... though I don't typically remember conversations verbatim, more just the impressions I get from them at the time. All I really remember is that he seemed frustrated, she seemed frustrated, and in the end they worked it out with no hard feelings. |
Anyone who has read my posts over time probably remembers that I frequently and freely admit that more of my beads end up in the ''practice/wonky'' pile than in the ''suitable for sale'' pile! I love my torch & playing with glass though!

One thing I learned about Divardi Dark Rose: when I tried using it to make veins in my leaf pendants, it cracked the Vetrofond White I was using as a base. It doesn't seem to have any problems with goldstone or aventurine, though. I always use a Golden Hot to warm my rods, no matter what rods I'm using, so I never have issues with any rods cracking to bits on me...not even the colors that are infamous for exploding to bits. The Divardi Rose looks great etched, though. I use it by itself to make flowers, then etch the flowers. I love almost all of the kinds of glass out there. They all have their pros and cons, it's just a matter of learning how to cope with them. The brand I had the very most trouble with was ASK...it's the only one I finally had to quit using, though I LOVED the colors so much!:cry: |

Wow! Everything seemed reasonable until this: Quote:
Just because some of those who posted here haven't had problems, doesn't give anyone the right to shout down those who have, even if they have opposing views or experience with the glass. And regarding other vendors, they've all paid their dues by standing behind their products for 10, 15, 20 years... That's how you earn the respect of your customers and their repeat business. If you go off half cocked like this, you only alienate anyone else who stumbles on to this thread. Sorry, but I hate deceit. |

I have to disagree. I think things went downhill when the first person who has never used the glass said it was not worth the effort.
Then there were the quotes from a glass which may or may not be the same glass, since it wasn't sold under the same name in 2002. Then there was the worthless and throw it away bit, too. I'd like to know how you guys say you know it's Daniel posting under that ID, also. |

I have made no claims about who Firemagic is because I have no idea. I do trust Kalera based on years of reading her posts and interacting with her online. If Firemagic wants to publicly claim his or her actual identity, that would resolve at least part of this. And if Firemagic isn't Daniel...where is Daniel? Andrea |

Daniel and Natasha said they wouldn't post any more. A very long time ago. |
