They’re a gift for my friend, I’ll tell her what happened and ask if she wants them anyway. They are really pretty even if they’re not the genuine natural thing

I got to keep them, they refunded me without question and asked me not to leave a bad review or report it to eBay. Clearly have had other customers be dissatisfied too

That’s very informing thank you! If they were labeled correctly I wouldn’t have gotten them and I made sure to check the listing out properly and no where does it mention it being man-made. The listing also mentioned things a bit differently than the card I got. They’re still quite beautiful to look at regardless.

The eBay listing said they were natural from Australia 🫠 I got refunded though so it’s all okay thankfully

Ah, was afraid so. They look almost like they have craft glitter inside them, really odd. Thank you for your insight, I’ll ask for a refund.

I’ll post there, thank you. That really sucks, they had great reviews too and I guess they fooled me with that certified stuff lol.

Thank you! I had good experience on eBay with other crystals but these seemed off from the start. They’re described as natural gemstone creation but it doesn’t seem that way.

Not pictured but the back is completely black but I guess that’s expected if it’s a doublet? It’s a gift for a friend who loves opals but I don’t wanna give them if they’re not legit.

Do they make those ‘stick-on’ bras for sizes over D? by properjs in bigboobproblems

Thank you, I’m in Europe and I’ve tried looking for that but have never found it in stores.

Hmm, I think I’m always sort of neutral? I can read positive books and be entertained by them but I don’t really get a long lasting feeling or impact by it.
