I'm sooo excited that you are venturing into the hotel rooms. The quality is out of this world. thank you David for sharing this amazing event with the world. - South Africa
Please give more prices. You seem to avoid prices when ever possible. Maybe when you pick up a piece give the cost. All that stuff is crazy cool and I hope to make the big show next year
In his defense, oftentimes prices aren't posted and you don't want to disturb a vendor who is selling items to a buying client just to get pricing for a video.
Most things are priced and I'm talking about things common to most vendors. It's a big expense to go to a show so far away and find out you can buy stuff for the about the same price locally. We want to be blown away with the deals you get at the big shows.@@AlexaVonSuess
Thank you so much for featuring the hotel rooms at the Pueblo Show! I'm a gemologist, and I love to collect "stuff in quartz." When I arrived in Tucson this year, I went straight to room 113 at the Ramada Inn (Pueblo Show) and purchased a very nice, large Pom Pom quartz. I absolutely LOVE it! If I hadn't seen it in your video, I may not have even known that it existed. 🙏❤
Great to see the shows and videos again Dave. I met you at the Pueblo show last year. I wasnt able to make it this year so I have been looking forward to seeing all the great materials and people again
Hey Dave, we love your channel!!! My family and I are miners and jewelry makers. We have 2 quartz crystal mining claims in Northern California. We also mine smokey quartz and amethyst on Peterson Mountain. AKA Hallelujah Junction. We will be in Tucson next week. Hope to see you there
God, that seller in the hotel room had the coolest little cabochons. The jewelry one could make with some of those would be stunning. Also, the Pompon quarts where it's a single puff would be great for evil eye motif.
"Con te Partiro" on the jade xylophone. *chef's kiss* I see you are a man of culture. :) It's a good thing I'm not going, because I would be that person digging through the pocket stones for hours. That imperial he gave you though!!!! Beutiful!!
Ich gucke Deine Videos so gern. Ich würde es auch interessant finden, wenn Du mehr Verkaufspreise nennen würdest. Ich komme aus Deutschland und daher wüsste ich gern, wie teuer die Dinge bei Euch sind. Danke für das zeigen.
Thanks Dave! I hope to run into you again. And hand you some lunch money to say thanks for all you do. Also, I’ll share wisdom from Sprite that I’ve taken to heart, for folks reading. Buy in sets of three, one to sell, one to keep and one to gift ❤
I don't belong here.... I'll come back if my life turns around! You are a good man Dave... appreciate you taking time to make suggestions... good luck with you
That labadorite at the beginning is gorgeous!! ❤⭐ So newbie question for you. Does that light tell if the crystal is genuine? Where do you get them and how much are they?
I got the light from a jade dealer in Denver but if you look up jade lights online it should be easy to find the light doesn’t let you know if it’s real but lets you see into the stone when you can help with determining the quality not really it’s all authenticity
As a tumbler i know ppl that sell slabs.... i just ask them to reserve butt cuts for me so i can throw them in the tumbler... they become the ultimate freeform..
A friend and I Would like to attend the 2025 tuscon gem show. We are not in the business and just like to check it out. What is the best show for us to attend?
Hi Dave, I am going to Tucson from 2/6 to 2/10. I will try to look you up. I got that you will be at D22 but which show will you be at and when is your last day? Thanks.
Hey, actually I don’t vend my grandmother does at the Kino show at the Guseman fire agate booth off the main drag I’ll be out in about filming but you can always give me a text 772-284-4459 and I’ll let you know where I’m at
Hi Dave! I would like to ask! Is your buddy buying for himself, does he work with the crystalls or to sell them? I mean, because I’m exactly drawn to the same crystalls like him! It’s like a feeling vibe!! Topaz, lemurians.. nice🙏 thank you for your work!! Seeing you from Spain (Barcelona)😊
How in the world do some of these vendors ship some of these incredibly fragile stones? Some of them look like they would break if you breathed on him, much less packed them with packing materials.
Hi Dave. I always assumed that they glued them, but now that I think about it, in order to get each crystal looking the same and having all of those clusters looking the same, I am guessing that they are lab created. It is so unfortunate that these beautiful minerals from the Earth are being faked because even the fakes make money. All of the people who make the fake stuff need to go to jail!! And the thing that concerns me the most are the young people who will have a harder time learning what is real and what is fake and the difference.
@@bonblue4993 If lab grown were accurate to the natural material, is wouldn't be 'fake', but those weird lab grown quartz clusters are extremely fragile, too... it's like the molecular structures is more loose some how? If you clink them together they sound like cheapest quality ceramic and not like quartz at all. Weirdest damn thing.
Now I love me some Guitar brother...but why are you forcing us to listen to guitar over your conversation? Isn't that kinda rude to the gentlemen talking and your audience whose here for the show not the music. Love you Dave brother but this is super annoying I have to turn it off.
Because there was copyright music in the background I don’t really care to put my music in the videos videos, but I had to drown out the copyright music. I didn’t have a choice.
