I had a wonderful experience with Ron from Ron’s Rocks! They have a store on Camarillo, Ca and they also sell on eBay. These sellers are very attentive and really try to please their customers. After the transaction I even received a surprise email with their own tips an instructions on tumbling. Very nice people to deal with. Their prices are very reasonable, and they are amazingly fast in their communication & shipping. I bought my Lortone 33B tumbler kit on Friday, I was expecting it in a couple of days and...I Got It Today!!! This is the picture of the Lortone kit that I got today: ![]() img.photobucket.com/albums/v392/MHPhotos2004/NwT.jpg[/img]If you are looking for a kit similar to mine, they currently have some on eBay check them out at : cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=4843&item=2263845785Just wanted to share my great experience with you. Here is their information: Store: Ron's Rocks, 33 Willden Dr., Camarillo, CA 93010, 805-482-4330, Email: ronsrocks@adelphia.net eBay Store: stores.ebay.com/Rons-RocksBye now  |

Hello John! ;D Online shopping is very important to me. I do must of my shoping online and had so many bad experiences with really bad sellers. Finding really good sellers is not an easy task and that's why I find my experience at Ron's rock very nice and refreshing. He's caring personality is going to take this seller very far. Good people deserve good things! I rather buy at reasonable prices from a seller that I trust (and ships fast  ) than buying a bargain from ghost sellers and waiting an eternity for my items to arrive wondering if they will ever come  Congratulations on your QT66!!! How is the noise on those big ones??? ? In about a month, when I finish my first tumbling batch (that I started last night ;D) I will buy some of the smaller 1 1/2 pound barrels for my tumbler, to use for polishing small amounts of rocks. It is amazing how many rocks I can polish on the 3 pound barrels! I don't have too many rocks yet so I think the smaller barrels will be useful to me as well! Who knows, maybe in a year I will be buying a QT66 as well! Ha-ha-ha ;D Bye now John, nice to hear from you! |

i hear ya about the online shopping i do 99 percent of my buying online i cant take the stores,, i cant walk or stand long with my back so even with the shipping charges its still worth it to me,, i can sit in my recliner and shop with my fingers instead of my legs hahaha,, and as far as noise on the qt66 i never realy noticed any till i got up to the thumlers model b-s and that was because i was tumbling bigger rocks and that wasent even that bad i have three running at the same time never kept me awake hahaha

I never did get around to posting about Ron. I bought a 6" horizontal lap from him about a month ago. I bought it from him based on John's recomendation. He posted about Ron awhile back. Unfortunately I haven't had much time to use it yet. In a couple days, I'll post pics of what I've been doing over the last week. Great ebayer in my opinion.

Shopping online is the way to go John!!! I do the same 99% as you do to. It is as convenient as it gets! 3 big tumblers going at the same time, WOW! I just started tumbling last night and I am already used to the noise, if I don't think about it I don't notice it! Ha-ha-ha!;D Hi Otter, it is never late to post comments about sellers. It is always good to hear how transactions go. Ron's business have a 100% of positive feedbacks in thousands of transactions, I find that amazing, I don't think we'll be seen a negative about him around here! Ha-ha-ha! Otter, I will be checking the postings to see your pics!!! Hello KD! That new tumbler smell was just great! Ha-ha-ha! It just lasted a couple of hours, it's been fully loaded and tumbling since yesterday!!! ;D |
