Larimar is a beautiful stone and the fact it is only found in the Dominican Republic is astonishing.

I hope someone can help! :classic
Thanks and i look forward to hearing from people

I'm after someone in the DR to send me some necklaces, any takers?

All the little vending shops sell them, i'd buy several at a time and pay you a large percentage more than the shops ask plus postage, simple way for someone to make some money! Come on - any takers???

Are you suggesting you would like some to partake in a little illegal business venture??

Theres a little something called "duty" and "customs", you should look into it!!

And perhaps speak with a reputable jeweler in DR.

Better off to go the "China" route-might be cheaper and less hassles if you go by sea!

Well yes if you want to call it that

I just want more of the same necklaces i have bought while on holiday there last month.

eBay do not have what i am looking for...

Do any of the small beach front vendor shops have small websites? Or does anyone know of a supplier where they get all their jewelery from?
