I would be most grateful if you could guide me to what you consider an inexpensive, trust-worthy gem/tumblestone website. I'm on the hunt for Angelite tumblestones and/or necklaces...


Thanks in Advance!

Check out Mirage Best Buys on Ebay--I loooooove them. But only for tumbled stones (huge selection, REALLY cheap, very low yet fast shipping... heart heart XD).

Healing Crystals (Google) is okay for natural crystals.

Of course, I am opening my own online store in two weeks, which means--FREEBIES! ;D lol wink wink wink

I prefer polished heart shaped stones. So I lean toward websites that offer them. However, RainbowCrystal.com and MysticGemcreations both have great deals on tumbled stones. I especially like MysticGemcreations for rare gemstones like sunstone which is darn hard to find. For quartz, you can't do much better than Jim Coleman, which is a mine.

I would have to also say bestcrystals.com. The majority of mine are from there and they are just lovely and nice sizes, too. Nothing too small and quite a variety. I have several lovely pieces of angelite from them. Occasionally they go out of stock, but keep checking because they will be back.

I like: www.healingcrystals.com
I've always enjoyed what they have to offer, never had to complain, and they come in a timely fashion too. :)

I recently placed an order at: www.howlatm.com
There is not a huge selection, but what she does offer is very beautiful, and they were shipped in a timely fashion. I really enjoyed ordering from her. :)

This has everything from the inexpensive to the super expensive. But I thought the massage balls were interesting...http://www.angeliteom.com

I have been known to use eBay for some of my crystal shopping, but I also like earthly-gems.com too. I got some gorgeous watermelon tourmaline from them a while back! :)
