Hi Everyone !

I’m the proud owner of a Pixie !
I just purchased it Saturday in Tucson

But more important than that
Is the fantastic service I received
from John at JS GEMS

I implemented my plan on Thursday
& e-mailed John from RTH on that day
I received back, quickly & efficiently,
all my questions on the Pixie

I originally was going to have it sent via mail
but being that John was such a pleasure to deal with
I drove to Tucson to pick it up.

The whole process went flawlessly
and that saying a lot!

John had the experience & enthusiasm to
personalize the service with me
& that made all the difference.

Just a total pleasure John
and a heartfelt
Thanks !

Ed

When I was at the show visiting with John
they were demonstrating the
Barranca Diamond Wet Polisher
I got to try it on this beaut!

It was mined in Nevada--as I recall
perhaps John can fill in more info ?

If I wasn’t such a happy po’boy
I’d purchased one of those also
next time !

The ore is called "Bonanza Ore". Very similar to high grade Comstock ore. It is from a mine near Winnemucca (probably spelled wrong) in Nevada. You can see the silver veins and there is gold and other goodies also. That piece is estimated to be worth $1000. Too pretty to crush and process in my opinion.

The Pixie also has more room in between the wheels
