Post Earrings - pearl earrings, freshwater pearls

I purchased these at a very low price at a time when Amazon was also throwing in a free matching pendant & chain. So, for the twenty dollars I spent... it was a great deal. The color of the pearls is a nice ivory white and the sterling is unmarred. The pearls themselves do have flaws... more noticeable on the pendant than on these earrings, but still noticeable. The size is dainty but identicle with each earring; neither looks bigger/smaller than the other. Overall, a great purchase for the price.

Battery Replacement

Visit Store Now !!

I purchased two of these for my Friendly Robotics RL800 mower and was disappointed with their performance. While initial run time with these batteries was nearly three hours, within a month that time had dropped to less than 10 minutes.

Friendly Robotics thought the mower was working correctly and that the problem was these UPGs were not up to the task. I bought B.B. Batteries EB20-12X which have been working fine and have also used the Werker WKA12-18NBs. UPG UB12180 Sealed Lead Acid Batteries

I purchased these rechargable batteries for my Homelite lawnmower. I'm just a gal with a few basic tools, but I was able to get the old batteries switched out without any problems. I did one at a time so there wouldn't be too many wires to mix up. This was the best price+shipping deal I could find and the company was very prompt in sending them.

After 4 years the batteries on my mower died. I ordered 2 of these and they work great. The only thing I had to do was drill the hole just a bit bigger so the bolt would fit through. I'm pleased with the purchase.

I ordered this battery for my brother-in-law. It is exactly what he was looking for, and we were very satisfied with the quality of the battery, the dimensions were listed correctly, and the delivery was in a very timely manner.

We bought two of these batteries for our Black and Decker cordless electric mower. The last set from the same manufacturer lasted for over 3 years (longer than expected). This order through Amazon was actually less expensive and, as usual, arrived promptly as scheduled and in good condition. Seems pricing for these batteries are all over the map for what is basically a generic product. Amazon's price was lowest.

I ordered this to fit my chipper, the model# was the same as my chipper battery. It came right on time, all charged up, it fit fine and started my chipper up fine. I needed a new battery so I could sell my chipper, it sold to the first person who looked at it, the battery fired it right up. So I can't comment on how long it lasts, also it is made in china so I gave it 4 stars, I would give it 5 stars for the low price and fast service.

This is the exact driver battery replacement for a Walmart instant power Jump start device of mine that would have had to be thrown out because the original battery inside was 6 yrs old. Since the jump pack costs $75 new and this battery is only $30 and works fine, this was a real good deal.'

Before you buy this cable to hook up your PC with your TV please read the following:

In order for this cable to work, the markings on your TV must be RGB. You will have to look closely to read this or find it in your TV manual. If it is Pr,Y,Pb IT WILL NOT WORK. You will find these markings next to the red, green and blue connectors on the back of your TV. Remember, they must be marked R,G,B.

Regards. Premium 6ft VGA Male to 3-RCA Component Video Male cable

This worked amazing to hook up my projector to my DVD player. Much better picture quality than with the previous S-video cable.

This WILL NOT work to hook up your laptop to a Television. Do not even try.

Even though all these helpful reviews said "this won't allow you to plug your laptop into your TV," i thought that for sure my situation must be different. Don't fall into the same trap - This cable does not convert RGB video into a component signal.

If you need something for plugging your component into an RGB port in a projector, this is for you. And it's very well made.

I ordered this cable in the hopes of connecting my laptop to my 50" plasma TV. The cable arrived in good condition, and I believe it's a good-quality cable - it feels strong, but is still very flexible - but it didn't work for me.

In order to use this cable, the device with VGA out must be capable of sending a TV signal, sometimes called an RGB signal or a sync-on-green signal. Because this is a very specific type of signal, it's almost impossible to find out whether or not a certain device is capable of it. Basically, if it's designed for displaying on a TV, it's going to send the right signal, but most laptops have display ports for connecting to monitors, not TVs. For this price, however, it's probably worth buying the cable and testing it in your situation, instead of scouring the web and living in constant uncertainty.

Even after reading the various warnings submitted by others before buying this item, I decided to get it anyway. Most had alerted that the product wouldn't work for those who were trying to use the cable to link their TV with their computer. I was trying to connect a DVD player (component output) to a PC monitor (standard RGB HD-15). Should be no problem right? Wrong. The monitor doesn't recognize the connection. So, I just figured I'd return it. After all, it's Amazon. Well this particular product must be returned to the seller and the seller does not reimburse their shipping cost nor pay for the return shipping. Since the original shipping cost exceeds the product cost, it makes no financial sense to return the item. A cheap but important lesson for the future.

Excellent conversion cable. Some HD projectors/TVs accept the composite signal via connector that looks like a VGA one from a PC. This allows you to come out of the DVD player or other video source using 3 component plugs and go to the VGA style input on the projector. Works great.

I bought this,because I wanted to connect a new PC monitor to my dvd/vcr combo, so this would have been great, as it comes with the RCA on one end and the VGA on the other, but my monitor didn't recognize the VCR combo, and vise versa, the combo couldn't send the audio/video to the PC monitor.

This thing was not what I expected. It didn't work the way I expected it to. I have had other similiar products that were able to take the signal from my computer and output the to my tv. This didn't do that. I tried for hours fiddling with the graphic card atributes to get this to work and it just wouldn't do it.'

Power Converter - travel, voltage converter

Visit Store Now !!

This kit is well made, contains all the plug adapters you'll need to travel to 6 continents, and unlike some, has switchable wattage to allow the use of both low voltage (eg. battery rechargers) and high voltage (eg. hair dryers) appliances. Recoton ADF1650 50/1600W Dual Wattage Travel Converter

This item offered here (Recoton ADF1650 50/1600W Dual Wattage Travel Converter) is actually two different converters built into one package. At LOW setting (up to 50W), it uses a small AC transformer to convert 220V sinusoidal waveform into a 110V sinusoidal waveform. This is the preferred approach which works well for any low power appliance.

To handle higher power, however, the AC transformer must be made bulkier and heavier (around 20 pounds just for 1000W). This makes it impractical as a travel voltage converter for large-wattage appliance. Therefore another method is used by this converter...

At HIGH setting (50-1600W), this convert simply uses a solid-state switch inside to chop off part of the 220V sinusoidal waveform. The resulted waveform, as seen by the appliance, is highly distorted and is far from an 110V sinusoidal AC voltage.

For a purely resistive appliance (such as travel iron or water heater) it works just fine irregardless of different voltage waveform. But if you ever try to power an electronic appliance (such as TV, computer or battery charger) with this distorted 220V waveform, it will probably be fried in an instant!

The product manual did warn against using the HIGH setting for any electronic appliance exceeding 50W. So legally the company is covered. My advice is to stay away from this potentially destructive product - unless you are really, REALLY careful about what to plug in. Chances are, sooner or later somebody will forget about this warning and plug a Xbox into this "converter" - only to get a big BOOM!

If you must bring electronic appliances with your oversea trips, make sure they are rated for universal voltage of 100-240V AC. That way, you can safely use them in other countries without the need for a volatge converter. Power supplies for most portable electronics (laptop, camcorder, cell-phone, electric shavers, etc.) are already designed for universal voltage, although some of them may require you to physically flip a switch.

But don't forget, even if you don't need a voltage converter, you still must bring a set of plug adapters for foreign countries.

I bought this converter for a trip to Spain. Each time I used it, I smelled a plastic burning odor and the unit was too hot to handle. I had to unplug whatever device was connected to it and wait about 10 minutes before removing it from the wall outlet. When I took it to Peru four months later, I had the same experience, only this time it "exploded" while using my electric shaver. I immediately unplugged the shaver and grabbed a towel to remove the converter from the outlet. The room smelled strongly of burning plastic. Unfortunately, I burned out the motor of the shaver. I also noticed that the cell phone I had tried to charge earlier in the day had not charged. The charger was burned out and obviously no longer works back home in the states.

To add insult to injury, I've been bounced around from service rep to service rep trying to contact the company. I've been issued four "case numbers" each time I call in. Now they've got me waiting for a call from the legal department. Do they smell a lawsuit?

My recommendation is to NOT buy this device. Another review talks of how heavy the unit is and how the user had to prop it up. That's definitely been my experience. In Spain, I had to use the two prong accessory to plug it into the recessed outlet in the bathroom. I actually had to hold the unit to keep it from falling out. (Yes, I know, not smart, holding an electrical device while in the bathroom!)

Spend a few extra bucks and get a better converter.

I took this converter to a very long European trip. It worked just fine. My family members were using it for both high-wattage and low-wattage appliances. It was very handy to have a single converter for all cases. What can I say - it worked as supposed and didn't break. The set of 5 different adapters (all types used on the planet) was very handy too.

I purchased two of the Recoton ADF 1650 sets for a recent trip to Italy. They worked flawlessly, with both high and low-voltage devices. We tried them with hair dryers, digital camera battery rechargers, etc. and no problems. They are quite large and heavy, though, and we ditched the carrying case, etc., and just threw the converter into our suitcases..

One important thing to remember is that you only need a voltage CONVERTER if the devices you wish to power are incapable of operating at the voltage being provided in the country you're visting. I found that my cell phone charger AND my Nikon digital camera battery recharger were both designed for BOTH 110 and 220 Volt operation (read the fine print stamped on the charger) so all I needed was the "plug adaptor" (and NOT a voltage converter) for these two chargers... The plug adaptors are about $2-$3 each... - Voltage Converter - Travel Adapter - Travel - Travel Converter'

Game Accessories - corded, sidewinder

Visit Store Now !!

This mouse is not perfect but I would have given it a 4.5 so I upgraded it to a 5.

For my large hands this mouse feels just right. It moves well on my nylon mat that I use for a pad and I have tried it on a hardwood desktop with good results. The mouse has very good yaw and pitch movement and it is easy to adjust dpi setting on the fly.

It has a quick turn feature that works very well in first person shooters. you assign one of the buttons for quick turn around and as your playing if you want to check who's behind you click the button and you turn 180 degree's. If you need to change your direction fast because you can see your out numbered ahead it comes in mighty handy.

The top buttons have a good responsive click to them and I had no problem with learning the over and under side buttons, which I perfer over my old Logitec MX518 foward and aft configuration.

The weight of this mouse without adding extra weights feels about the same as the MX518. I choose to add 5 grams of weight to it and perfer it that way.

The mouse wheel has a micro feeling touch and a little too light for my taste, but I got use to it fairly quickly. The one feature I think would have made this a great mouse would to have put side push switching on the wheel for adjusting look around corners.

I think this mouse is well constructed and will hold up for a long while.

If you running windows/vista than it has two other buttons that bring up the game file and macro changing, useful but not really must have feature.

All in all a confident and very good gaming mouse. Microsoft SideWinder Gaming Mouse

This is a reasonable gaming mouse, but has some problems which may be dealbreakers for you.

Pro:

-adjustable weight (I like mine heavy)

-adjustable sensitivity, whether you like to twitch your wrist or engage the whole arm, you can create settings that feel good to you.

-BIG, It's massive, one thing that always bugged me about the Logitech G5 was that my hand wrapped around it, the Sidewinder is enormous, and my hand rests atop it, quite comfortably I might add.

-Detent scrolling, many mice have switched to smooth scrolling which is much less useful for weapon selection in FPS games.

-Macro button allows you to create macros in game, on the fly

Con:

-detents in the scroll wheel don't have as much resistance as I would like

-would like more weight (included weights allow addition of 30g max.)

-no tilting scroll wheel, my previous mouse had a tilting wheel which I used for leaning left and right in F.E.A.R. , however, as few games implement this feature, this isn't a major issue. However, I also used wheel tilting to switch between tabs in my browser (Opera), so I still use that G5 for general use and browsing, and have the Sidewinder strictly for gaming.

The addition of a tilting wheel would have easily boosted this to 5 stars. If you like tilting wheel mice for browsing, as I do, consider a logitech G9, which has an almost identical feature set, minus the macro button.

Sidewinder just feels good. Customizable weights make your pointer swoop across the screen with predictible accuracy. The 360 view feature gives my World of Warcraft character a great advantage with situational awareness. Thumb buttons are very easy to find. A well thought out mouse for gaming.

Took a bit to set it up, but works like a charm now.

I have major trouble finding good peripherals. I go through keyboards like candy and mice like Gatorade after a long bike ride, so I was really glad to finally get my hands (literally) on a keyboard (Microsoft SideWinder X6 Keyboard) and mouse that I'm happy with.

A wired mouse was a must for me as the RF connection hiccups that occur occasionally, no matter how rarely, bug me horribly (though with the Bluetooth setup on my Mac I've had no real issues). I also have trouble with occasional wrist pain - a minor carpal tunnel issue - so finding a comfortable mouse was very important to me. And while the SideWinder mouse isn't perfect, I'm keeping it.

The first things that struck me about the mouse were the size (it's big) and the shape (it's weird). But for me, they work well: the unconventional size and shape allow me to shift my grip throughout the day while still being able to reach all the controls. This keeps the pain away better than any other mouse I've ever used, particularly those that force me into holding my hand in the same position all day long.

The scroll wheel and forward/back buttons are next up: I've found the buttons a bit too far forward for me (my hands aren't HUGE), though not far enough to make their position a deal-breaker. The scroll wheel is graduated, meaning it doesn't spin free like some others, but has excellent feel and weight to it. It also doubles as a button; I've mapped mine to the Vista Flip 3D function that shows all open windows. This is a function I got addicted to on my Mac (where I use expose mapped to a scroll-wheel press) as I tend to have a lot of windows open at once and can get a bit lost. My only complaint here is that I have trouble finding the perfect setting for scroll wheel increments - sometimes each step goes too far, but making them shorter can make scrolling long pages a pain in the butt (this can mitigated a bit by using accelerated scrolling).

There are a few more things make this mouse unique. First, there are three DPI switches on the top of the mouse which allow you to change the mouse resolution on-the-fly. The new resolution is displayed in a small LCD window on the mouse itself, and each of the three pre-set DPIs are changeable using the mouse software. Second, there's the weighting system: the mouse comes with set a of 5g and 10g weights (two of each) three of which can be inserted into the mouse body in a slide-out tray. Third, the mouse comes with three different sets of feet that can be easily switched out to find the optimum material for your mousing surface. The differences aren't huge, but I have found that picking the right feet makes the mouse slide easier. Finally, the feet and weights all store easily in a small box that has a slot through which the mouse cord can be fed; this makes it not only a handy storage container but an excellent cord control device.

As for the software, it's exactly what you'd expect. You can map all the buttons (except for the one which opens your games folder...stupid, that..though it is out of the way) pretty much any way you'd like, including making program-specific setups. I've had no crashes of the driver, and everything has worked flawlessly for me since day one. Please not that I have only used this with my PC, and have NOT tested it with any of my Macs.

If I could change anything about the mouse I might make it a TINY bit smaller, I'd definitely make the game-launch button re-mappable, and I'd add the ability to put the scroll wheel into a free-spin mode (like some Logitech mice). Overall though, the good FAR outweighs the bad, and I'm not changing mice anytime soon. - Sidewinder - Mouse - Corded - Programmable'

Infertility Solutions - conception, infertility solutions

I had been using the clearblue fertility monitor for years, usually aiming for intercourse on the '3' days (which indicate ovulation.) With the OV watch we had IC on Fertile Day 2 and conceived. I never knew to aim for such an early window, and knowing when the pre-ovulation period was happening is much easier with this product. The OV watch gives you a countdown to ovulation; with the monitor I never knew how many 2's there would be before seeing a 3. Although it was finicky (the sensor /"frits" dried out) the help-line was very helpful and I also found a how-to video at a site called fertilepanda that showed me what to do about it. Also, you only need to wear it up to "Fertile Day 1", so you're free from the device more than 1/2 the time. OV-Watch Fertility Predictor Starter Kit with 1 Month Supply of Sensors

The sensors do not stay in the watch and there is nothing to hold them in place. My first sensor broke before i could even use it $30 down the drain. My second sensor fell out while I was sleeping and has disappeared. Therefore another $30 down the drain and another month of not using this watch. I bought the OV-Watch brand. I followed the directions clearly. my husband even tried (and he's a doctor!) They sensors were OV Watch sensors so i would expect them to fit like a glove. I expected wrong. I would not recommend this watch to anyone. I is so frustrating / upsetting that ths watch was so poorly designed I will even post a video to show how the watch sensor does not fit in the watch.

I have used the watch through two cycles. I followed all instructions and everything has worked as promised. No baby yet but it has taken some of the stress out of trying. Customer service told me that cycle day one is your first FULL DAY of flow. My doctor told me that cycle day one should be the first day you start your flow. I did some research and found this to be correct. The first day you start should be counted as cycle day one. Not the next FULL DAY of flow as the rep at OV told me. Also, keep the watch on tight to avoid it moving around at night.

My husband and I have been TTC for a while now without much luck. The pee strips just weren't working (plus ew!) and while I'm not at all *crazed* to have a kid or hearing any bio clocks ticking, the truth is I'm not getting any younger so it's sort of now or never. The watch confirmed what I already knew, I have around a 20 day cycle and always have (AF sometimes twice in a month is not fun!). The one fault on this watch is that it generally reads. What I mean is there is a fertile day 1, 2, 3, 4, OV day 1 & 2, and then less fertile days 1 &2. Well, not with my regular cycle. First of all, the status change only pops up at midnight. So many days, I was in fertile day 1 all day and it didn't read until midnight. When it said fertile day 1, I was actually in day 2. Then by the time fertile day 4 came up, I had already ovulated.

So our timing was still completely off (although it was better than the pee strips which for me gave zero warning before ovulation).

We went to a RE to try to make things happen on more of a predictable schedule plus I'm slightly hypothyroid & my husband is no spring chicken so we just wanted to make sure everything was working right with both of us. After all the tests, everything works and so I was put on a first round of clomid with an IUI scheduled.

Now here is where the watch made a huge difference. The first cycle on clomid, all my watch sensors failed (bad box) which threw everything off (it happens quite a bit and that plus the general cycle problems is why this product gets 4 stars instead of 5). We went by the RE's schedule for that IUI and even with the trigger shot, it was unsuccessful (even though for the first time ever I had a 28 day cycle).

The second clomid/IUI cycle with a working ov watch? On day 10 the watch at midnight read fertile day 1. After talking to the doctor who was shocked that I was already starting to ovulate, we scheduled the IUI days earlier (on fertile day 4) and never needed the trigger shot. The doctor had me take tons of pee tests to confirm ovulation, but all of them came up negative (as they tend to do with me). I trusted the watch even though the doctor I think was pretty sure we did the IUI too early.

So guess who had a positive home pregnancy test result today? Tomorrow I go in to confirm with the doc! (Wish us luck!)

So yes, the watch does work better than anything else out there today even if you don't fall in the "standard" 28 day cycle and even if you're on clomid. It was an enormous help and although it could be better (read individual results instead of a standard ovulation cycle and if the darned sensors always worked!) it is a great tool that has probably saved us a lot of wasted IUI attempts and $$$$.

Good luck and baby dust to you! XD

I bought this watch because I did not want to be peeing on sticks or take my temperature everyday. I figured I would try other methods after several months of using the OV watch and no results. Well, I don't have to resort to anything else because I got pregnant the first month of using the watch. I strapped it on before going to bed, did a test read to make sure it is working since while it is reading it does not tell you so. The only thing I did not like was the rash I got on my wrist. It went away once I found out I was pregnant and stopped wearing the watch. For those who have to go more than one month, I recommend switching arms. Other than that, I thought it was easy, mess-free, and highly accurate. - Infertility Solutions - Pregnancy - Fertility Tests - Conception'

Poor Quality - cheap, photo frame

Visit Store Now !!

For the price, this Digital Frame is not terrible. I was expecting something a bit better but again, it's ok for a 480x234 resolution.

There's not on board memory but you can use a cheap SD or USB flash drive, just drop your pics there and you're ready. The menu is very basic as the unit itself.

If you can wait or pay for something better, then do it. Viewsonic'S VFA724W-10 7-Inch High Resolution Digital Photo Frame (Cherry Wood Frame)

I bought this digital photo frame for an older relative so I wasn't looking for anything with a lot of features... just nice and simple navigation and display. I had been pricing them for weeks beforehand and found it was VERY difficult to get a nice digital frame for anything less than $50--I'm so glad I found Viewsonic before I shelled out that kind of cash. This Viewsonic frame is easily the best value for your money ($29 when I bought it) and looks great. Unlike some of their competitors who use very cheap and wobbly plastic, this frame is made to look and feel just like wood, there is a nice white matte, and the entire thing is glass plated. Also, the stand is built into the frame and holds firm.

The image is stretched to fit the entirety of the frame--unlike other models which will leave an obnoxious edge around your photo--and the image quality is really bright, clear and crisp. I put a couple hundred photos on a USB flashdrive, plugged it in, and it was ready to go. Once I test drove the first one, I went out and bought one for myself... if you're not looking for special features (this one only appears to have pause, play, backwards, and forwards along with some image editing options) this is the perfect gift for yourself or someone you love. Simple but classy, I would definitely recommend it.

Not bad, and not good. The instruction manual is so poor it is almost funny.

If all you want to do is look at pictures stored on a SD memory chip is should be okay. Picture quality is good. Anything more complex can be a real challenge. I wanted to use a Memory Stick but could not get the Card Selection Screen to do anything but sit there. The only button that effected this screen put me to the Viewing Options screen so there was no way I could select using a Memory Stick. Somehow or other I also got to a totally undocumented screen that gave me three choices: Rotate Photo, Zoom Photo, or Adjust Color. I tried these options and now know why this screen is undocumented; the Adjust Color option is impossible to use.

The manual frequently refers to buttons to push that are non existent and to a remote control that does not come with the unit. Reference is made to a Play button followed by a weird symbol like this (>/ll). There is no Play button so the symbol probably means not in this edition. The best feature is the OFF button. It is like a reboot and works great.

We have a few high-dollar frames and they perform as expected. Frankly, I did not expect a ton considering the Viewsonic's price...but I was quite surprised. Easy to set up and a menu that was simple to sort through. Spend some time cropping your pics to 16:9 and they come out beautifully. Let the frame scale them and the quality will disappoint. The quality of the actual wood frame was astounding and was better than any of our expensive frames. We purchased multiple Viewsonics for gifts and they were a big hit. I took about 30 mins to crop and load pics on all of them and we have happy grandparents all over the country!

There is an undocumented menu for adjusting the images' brightness, contrast, tint, and color. However when you go to this menu option, brightness is the only option that is selectable to adjust, even though the other options have values that would seem to be changeable.

The result is that the images displayed, since those items cannot be adjusted, look poor at best...and thus this frame is not worth any price, unless you have been lucky enough to get a screen that looks okay. I apparently didn't.

The product arrived on time and in great condition. I am pleased with its performance and look, especially given the price I paid. It's a great buy if you want a simple digital frame, but it's not suited for a glamorous gift. Great budget buy!

If I had bought this in a brick and mortar store, I would return it. Wood frame is nice, sure, but image quality is awful. I bought this based on knowing View Sonic USED to have a good reputation for computer monitors. This product's display is FAR worse than the off brand drugstore model my husband bought me last year, for less. I wish I had bought the cheaper off model at the drugstore, since I bought this as a gift. I loaded a brand name SD card and plugged it in. Picture quality is very poor. I am more discerning than many though, and the person I bought this for MAY not notice. I sure notice. - Photo Frame - Digital Picture Frame - Cheap - Viewsonic'

Great Gift Idea - jewelry, pearls

Visit Store Now !!

I recently put my review for these earrings stating that they were beautiful but that they broke after owning them for a week. I received an email from the owner who not only apologized but immediately sent me a new pair. I purchased the earrings for my daughter and she was very dissappointed when they broke. I did not expect the owner to apologize or better yet send me a new pair. I haven't received customer service like this in quite a long time. Claude many blessings to you and your business you will definetely prosper from doing business like this.

I work with alot of woman and will share my experience.

Thanks again for everything. 7.5-8mm High Luster Cultured Pearl Stud Earrings

These earrings are great! The freshwater shape (slightly flattened) actually makes them look larger on the ear. The post is the right length, not too long or too short, and the clasp holds tight. Very nice earrings for a very reasonable price, and nicely packaged, too.

I know I shouldn't expect too much on a pair of pearl earring priced $15.

However I was so disappointed since the two pearls look quite different in shape, color, and size. One pearl is almost perfectly round, and the other quite flat. I decided I have to return the item although the price was quite reasonable.

These earrings are much smaller than 7.5-8 mm. mine appear to be about 4.5-5 mm. very disappointed. They are literally on a post, like in the picture. am deciding whether or not to send back. i don't know how these could ever sell for more than $15 anywhere.

Gosh I'm so proud of being an amazon customer, it never under-delivers... I bought these pearl studs for my mom as a present she loves pearls and what's my surprise? THESE STUDS ARE AS BEAUTIFUL AS THEY GET.

I even tested them 'cuz i needed to make sure i wasn't giving out fakes, and try it yourself test is simple rub the pearls against your teeth if it grinds they are real, if they rub off smooth they are prolly fake, THEY ARE SO REAL and they matched perfectly a separate neacklace i purchased before... so awesome! my mom is going to jump up & down i'm sure!

The pearl earrings I received were shipped on time. They are of excellent shape, size and quality; I'm particularly impressed with the lustre. Furthermore, they were very well matched in size, shape and color. There were very minor blemishes and the surface of one was very slightly bumpy, but not noticeable unless taken off and inspected closely under bright light.

Also, to those with size complaints or worries; the pair of earrings I received were, in fact, 7.5-8mm as described. If you're unsure what 7.5-8mm looks like consult a ruler before buying. It's a solid medium size, but not at all like the oversized pearl earrings some people prefer. Please keep this in mind when ordering.

$15 is a very good price for the pearls I received, and I haven't found earrings of comparable quality at the same price within stores.

This is a fantastic pair of pearl earrings for the price, and I would highly recommend them. I've studied all about pearls for a few years, and was thrilled when these arrived. They are very round, very luminous and have a bright, rich luster. Please consider these as a gift for any number of occasions... for example, a bride on a budget could pick up these and the matching pealr strand for less than $30 each "set" for bridesmaids, or gifts for the mothers of the bride and groom. They look like you spent much, much more money! It's definately affordable luxury! Is your best friend having a birthday? This will thrill her. Graduation gifts on a budget?

Usb Printer Cable - usb cable, printer cable

Visit Store Now !!

I am not sure why anyone would buy ANY cable from a box store. The stores will put the cable in a pretty box and then charge you 5X the price you could buy them on Amazon. The Mediabridge USB Printer cable is a perfect example - it works great and offers all of the performance of the MUCH more expensive cables that are offered at the retail stores. Mediabridge offers gold plated connection that work great I am using a set on my printer!

Final Verdict - I would recommend never buying any type of cable at a box store - there is money to saved!

5 Stars Mediabridge - Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Cable (6 Feet)

I use a Canon classImage printer which didn't come with a printer cable, so I ordered this one online seeing as it was very inexpensive and Amazon Prime gave me free shipping. The printer cable came very quickly and worked perfectly with my printer. No complaints!

These cables by Mediabridge are realistically priced and quality made. When you look at at stores like Best Buy and see what they charge for cables, you realize the tremendous markup. Have used 3 different cables from them-HDMI, coaxial and printer cable- all worth the price.

I ordered this cable as a replacement for my HP Photosmart Printer. It arrived in very secure packaging and it perfect condition. The length is great and it connected to my computer perfectly. The cable seems pretty sturdy and it does it's job well. I chose the 2 day shipping and it actually arrived in 1 day so I was very pleased at how fast I got it.

This isn't the only Mediabridge cable I have ever purchased. I also bought the Mediabridge HDMI cable, and I am completely satisfied with their quality construction. Mediabridge is giving Belkin a run for their money. Can you believe that similar cables are $20 at Walmart? Note to Self: Buy all your cables on Amazon, and you'll save a fortune! - Printer Cable - Usb Cable - Usb Cables - Usb'

Usb To Parallel Adapter Cable - usb, cable

Visit Store Now !!

I bought this cable so that my 7-year old HP LaserJet 1100A printer would work with my new HP computer with Vista...even HP told me that there was nothing that would make the printer work! It DOES work and no need to override the printer driver already in the new Vista software! Cables To Go 16899 USB To DB25 IEEE-1284 Parallel Printer Adapter Cable, 6 Feet

My PC recently died and I replaced it with a new iMac with Mac OSX 10.5. I love my LaserJet 4 since it is so reliable and cheap to operate, and didn't want to rely exclusively on my inkjet printer. I decided to give this cable a try since it had good reviews. I took a risk using it on a Mac since it didn't state that it supported Macs, but it ended up working perfectly.

Installation was a breeze. Note that this cable does not plug directly into the printer, but plugs into the computer end of the existing parallel cable. I'm OK with that since it gave me more length. When I plugged it in, the Mac recognized it as a new printer with a generic driver. All I needed to do was change the driver to the HP LaserJet 4 driver and it worked fine.

I initially tried plugging this into a USB hub, but it only worked for a couple of sheets and then gave me a message that the printer was offline. I then plugged it directly into the Mac and it has worked perfectly since then. I also have another Mac and a PC on the network and they recognize the printer and print fine.

This cable is an ADAPTER for your existing printer cable. It will not plug into a centronics port. However, when combined with my existing printer cable, it worked great! I didn't even have to take any extra steps to add my HP Laserjet 6 printer to Windows XP.

I have an HP Laserjet 4L which is about 14 years old and I really did not want to part with it so I bought this parallel printer cable. I have four laptops, three with Windows XP and one with Vista Business. Like a good customer I followed the instructions that came with the cable but I could NOT get anything to print. I did a little research on the web and found the solution:

1. Do not install any printers or drivers or anything. Windows already has the drivers for HP printers.

2. Make sure your computer is turned OFF.

3. Plug the cable into the printer (printer is ON).

4. Plug the USB end of the cable into your computer.

5. Turn the computer on and the computer will do everything for you.

Verify that your printer is installed and print a test page. Set the printer as the default printer if needed. It was that EASY. This worked on each of my laptops. I'm really happy with this product - it was inexpensive, the print quality is excellent, and the print jobs even come out a bit faster!

The best advice I can give someone is to do just what you are right now: read online reviews! Lots of them. Go to the online sellers that have reviews (amazon, buy, new egg). You will eventually have to realize that the well-known name brands are more likely to work, but failures seem to be totally random and unpredictable. So be prepared to return it for a refund. I really think the manufacturers must be aware of the problems and they are choosing not to warn us.

I tried this adapter on four different printers and it only worked on one, which was, luckily, the one I really NEEDED it to work on. I also bought a cheap, no-name adapter off eBay which would not work at all and had to be returned.

I have a PowerMac running Tiger (OS X 10.4) and a Apple Laserwriter. Initially, print jobs would print, but only the first one after powering on the printer; subsequent jobs would fail. This was unacceptable. It turned out, however, that I needed to reinstall and update the OS on my MAC, and after that, printing was just fine with this adapter. There is a freeware print buffer enhancer called 'usbtb' which supposedly assists in this situation; I tried this and it prevented me from printing altogether!

I have a friend who has an iMAC running Leopard (OS X 10.5) and he has 3 HP printers. He and I were hopeful that this adapter would work for him and we decided to test it before he bought one. The Laserjet 2100 would just print blank pages. The old LaserJet 2P+ would not do anything. The LaserJet 4L would occasionally print something, but most jobs would not print and we could not really find any rhyme or reason behind this. So my experience is 25%, but even that is seeing it optimistically.

What's wrong with these things? All I can figure is that printer drivers/firmware at each end of the cable are not all that robust and have some tight communication timings such that an adapter like this will introduce slight time delays that can throw things off.

I purchased a new Dell computer with Vista and was surprised to see that it didn't have the 25 pin printer port as all my previous computers had. I have an HP Laserjet 1100 and didn't want to have to throw it out given it works perfectly fine. This adapter cable was easy to install and Vista had no problems identifying it. The adapter comes with instructions which you must follow to properly install the cable and attach the printer. Worth the money!!! - Parallel - Usb - Cable - Printer'

Kodak Easyshare 5300 - inkjet printer ink, kodak easyshare 5300

Visit Store Now !!

Tried non Kodak ink; and had problems in our Kodak all in one printer. Price one of the more reasonable Ink cartridge's on the market. High quality low price what more do you want. Also very satisfied with the Kodak all in one printer. Kodak Black Ink Cartridge 10B (1163641)

The Kodak Printer came in a few days, was easy to install and I have been very pleased. I have not had it long enough to evaluate the savings with the cheaper ink but I think this will prove to be an added asset. It is a little noisy but this does not bother me. I bought it for home use and do not do a lot of printing but wanted a printer that was better than what I had and particularly, used the less expensive ink. The quality of the photos is excellent - it is hard to tell the original from the copy!!!

I no longer cringe when I see that "low-ink" warning. Thanks to Kodak I can now afford to let my 6 year old daughter print out just about whatever she wants. It is also now worth printing out coupons for groceries...so I not only save money on ink, but now I can take advantage of saving money by printing out coupons! Yay, it's not often you get a product with a win-win!

I hate OEM inks. Even these super savers are ridiculously expensive for what they are. Here we have some black ink. It comes out black. It doesn't last long enough, but none of them do. It's less expensive than other brands, but still WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY overpriced! It's not particularly dark, and it isn't immune to clogging if it's not used frequently, but it is better than the knock off brands you can buy for 1/3rd the price and then deal with the frustration of constant clogs and going through 10 cleaning cycles in order to use them. Printer ink is a necessary evil if you want to print your own photos. If you just need color prints get rid of your inkjet and get a color laser (research cost per print before you buy). If you just need black and white- man forget this nonsense and get a old brother laser with $10 toner that lasts 5000 prints and prints at great quality and hyper speed. If you're using this in an office environment that gets a lot of use- you're in the wrong place and you need someone who knows more than you to help you find the right place. There must be a special place in the afterlife where we all get to flog the OEM ink cartridge manufacturers for the evil pricing schemes. Good luck everyone. - Inkjet Printer Ink - Kodak Easyshare 5300 - All In One Printer - Ink Cartridge'

Hp Laptop Battery - laptop battery, hewlett packard

Visit Store Now !!

This battery arrived 2 days before the suggested arrival date. I replaced a 4400ma battery that died after 15 months of owning my laptop (just 3 months out of warranty) After several calls and emails to HP the best they could do is send me a replacement 4400ma battery for $67.00 plus shipping and handling. I was concerned that it may only last 15 months. I have read many bad reviews about the hp stock battery I had . After searching amazon.com found an 8800ma battery for $54.00. This battery is in my HP Pavilion dv4-1220us laptop. I have read the reviews and some complaints were about the battery being heavy and raised the laptop about a 1/2in. higher than the 4400ma stock battery that came with the laptop. This is not only true for the replacement 12 cell battery, but to note my brother-in-law has a later model hp pavilion with a stock 12 cell battery, and it is the same size as the replacement battery I purchased. If you want a lighter flatter battery then get a 4400ma battery. However my 4400ma stock battery never got me more than 1hr and 30 minutes of power and lasted only 15 months. On the other hand after having this battery for just about a week now I get about 3hrs and 45 minutes of battery life streaming music. It is well worth the extra weight and actually easier to type now that the laptop is angled a little bit. There was another complaint that the battery either fell out of the machine or was a bit shakey, and at times lost connection and the laptop would shut down. Now I don't know about other models of laptops, but on my pavilion dv4-1220us this does not happen. I will say that it does wiggle a little, but my brother-in-law's 12 cell 8800ma stock battery with his ph pavilion also has some wiggle room. All in all for the money compared to what HP wants for the same battery you can't beat it. My only regret is that at the time of posting this review the same battery is 7 dollars cheaper than when I ordered a little over 2 weeks ago. New Laptop Replacement Battery for HP Pavilion dv4 Series, Pavilion dv5 Series , Pavilion dv6 Series

I bought this battery for my HPDV51000 Laptop. I chose this battery over an HP Battery for 2 reasons 1) My original HP battery died after 15 months of use so I didn't want to get another one with the same results, I was hoping to find one that would last longer. 2) This battery had good reviews. I followed all the directions by calibrating the battery several times by fully draining and then recharging it. The battery only lasts for less than 1 hour with all the power settings set to the HP Recommended settings. The original HP laptop battery lasted well over 2 hours on the same settings. Overall I am disappointed.

I got this to replace a dead battery on my HP Pavillion DV-4 (which died after 14 months).

The price was great, compared to getting one direct from HP. So I was a bit skeptical about performance. But now it's been 3 months and it still works fine. Charges just as fast, and the charge lasts as long as the original HP battery did. It's basically just a clone of the HP battery, and these aftermarket batteries can be hit-or-miss. There is always a risk when buying a battery not made by the manufacturer, but I have found this one to work just as well as the first one. I hope it lasts even longer than the original. The battery life of the original HP battery was very dissapointing.

The battery works fine as long as you are using an actual HP power cord with it. When I first got this replacement battery it did not work with the cheap power cord I bought for $15 off here. If you need to replace your battery and/or power cord (as I had to after less than two years), this battery is fine but spend the extra money ($25 on Amazon) and buy the right HP power cord.

I was amazed how quickly the item got to me. I got an email saying that it was going to take much longer, but it arrived in just about a week and a half. It was a lot cheaper than a lot of others, so that made me nervous, but so far it is performing better than the original battery ever did.

I recieved the product in a proper time frame and it was the exact one. The only problem I had was when I searched for this product I wasn't sure if it was the right one but I got help and it turned out to be the correct one.

I bought this battery because my original battery had lost it's ability to hold a charge. Since using this battery, I have the portability of my laptop back and I absolutely love it. This is a good battery, for a good price and I'd definitely recommend it.

The actual product which was delivered was not at all the same as in the description of the product. it does not work for dv5 or dv6 laptops. Even on the delivered charger, it says dv4 charger. u will be cheated.

I was not about to pay $135 for a HP original battery that only lasted me 17 months. I bought from this company because it came with a 2 year warrant and money back guarantee. I will not have to buy another battery again for the next 3-4 years and that in itself is a saving. The battery arrived in just one day with free shipping. It came with great instructions on how to install their new battery with video instructions from their website. So far it's running great and out lasting my previous original HP battery when it was brand new. I will be back and refer my friends and families.

Cell Phone Cover - lg, cell phone cover

Visit Store Now !!

I like the color, feel, and the protection this product provides. However, it breaks too easily. Two of the plastic tabs that hold the top part on are already broken, and I have only had this case for a little less than two months. The case still stays on, but I'm thinking it may only be a couple more months before the other clips fall off and the upper part of the case no longer stays on. It seems that most cases for the Rumor/Cosmos are going to be this way, as the small gap between the two halves of the phone don't allow for thick fasteners on a case. Dark Blue Rubber Feel Snap-On Cover Hard Case Cell Phone Protector for LG Rumor2 LX265 / Cosmos VN250 [Beyond Cell Packaging]

I probably shouldn't write this until I've dropped my phone, but so far I absolutely love the cover. The color is a really nice royal blue and fits the phone like a glove. It's made from very durable material and I think it will be able to withstand a few drops. I would definitely suggest buying this over a 99 cent one. I bought one of those and not only was it made of cheap material it was way too small for my phone. An extra 7 bucks (which is still a steal), is definitely worth it.

True to its color on screen. Looks good. The only thing you need to know is it is painted and I assume they ran out of paint to do the inside of the case. The inside of the case basically is white with shadows of blue from the outside being spray painted.

When I first put it on my keyboard wouldn't slide out all the way because of the case so one of the plastic tabs had to not be attached to the phone for me to be able to use my phone. Now after owning this case about a week it won't even stay on anymore.

Pros

I dropped my phone with the case on once and the case didn't break.

Looks pretty nice

Cons

Horrible quality

Blue color comes off and leaves white behind.

No complaints against the seller. Product was delivered quickly and efficiently. The phone cover was total Shite! It lasted two days before it broke, but what can you expect when you pay less than a dollar for the item. The shipping cost more than the product. Bottom line, you get what you pay for. I wouldn't buy again, the plastic pieces that clip into your phone break off very easily.

This is a nice case with a nice feel. However, you get what you pay for. The first time I held my phone for more then 3 minutes my hand turned blue. The color continued to bleed onto my hand for over 2 weeks after that. Very disappointing.

It's a great deep blue and it fit my phone well (even though I mysteriously lost the original back of it...) but for several days it actually turned my ears blue! My friends thought I was sick with some sort of disease that causes blue ears, but later I realized it was just rubbing off my phone. I think it may have stopped after using it for awhile, but it was so cheap it's not worth sending it back.

My wife an I both got identical phones last week. In order to differentiate mine form hers, and to prevent us from grabbing the wrong phone, I decided to buy a cover. At such a low price point, my expectations were very low for this product. I would have been satidfied if it merely fit "ok". Well upon receipt of the item (which arrived quickly I should add), I was surprised to find that it fit 100% perfectly. Looks like a factory accessory. No features of the phone were hindered.My expectations were exceeded. - Cosmos - Lg - Lg Rumor 2 - Cell Phone Cover'
