OK, after some research, I'm agreeing with the Condor verdict. Oddly, I didn't see too much piranha on etsy.

Great cabs!!! Super shine! I'm with Tommy on the first one. I have some Condor that is very much like that. In the Piranhas, the colors don't seem to have as much substance....more translucent. The Condors seem to hold their strong colors even in thin cuts more often....or it might just be the rough I pick. Craig

Crayola is just too cool. Like bright stones. That's the one that I will keep and wrap. Love how the shape turned out, but the colors in crayola always win me over.

For some reason bright colors that can not be described but with only the most complicated color adjectives dazzle me. I would not touch describing the colors of that crayola. Vintage pastel Daiquiri with a swath of watered down cinnamon ? How is that for a try ? Bizarre colors accentuates my autism.

You are awesome!!!! And, I do get you. I have to write ads for these things. They can get quite creative.

That just made me hungry. It is supposed to make your client hungry to buy it! Lol I had a lady the other day who says my description of the piece sold her. She said that even though it was more than she would normally spend, she got the piece. The next day, she canceled the order and ordered something cheaper. LOL! First time that ever happened. I didn't think the ad was that persuasive. Here's the ad for the big expensive piece: See, it really isn't isn't all that. She got a phosphosiderite pendant instead. I guess she loves purple, too.

rockjunquie I think you hit a home run with the ad copy. Do you also try to build urgency? Like: "Charoite is in high demand. My last one sold in 24 hours. If you like this one, don't wait. The next buyer certainly wont!"

I dont mean for you to lie. something like that charoite piece is bound to sell fast. Randy, Any tips on how Tela may build some urgency? Within her boundaries of ethical selling!

First, great cabs Tela. I would eat the butterscotch Condor agate before the Crayola, regardless of description, it looks tasty.
I haven't got time for selling advice right now, too busy writing business! "Boss has gone crazy! Look at these prices!!!"
ETA: She kinda hit on the dwindling supply and higher prices, but I agree, it wouldn't hurt to weave in there the fact that these pieces move fast.
