To the Glenelg Opal members.

Very soon we will introduce a page of opal jewelery for our members only.

The jewelery will have a discounted price displayed.

It will be for a trail period to start with, but if the page is used by the members it will become a permanent page.

Most of the opals we supply are Mintabie opals .

Mintabie opals are harder than other opals.Less likely to be damaged but still has the beautiful colors.

No two pieces of opal are exactly the same.

The colors in an opal change with the different light .A mystical beautiful gem.

One opal will never be enough.

Thanking all who purchased beautiful opal jewellery for mums.

A gift that can be passed down the generations ,gaining value all the time.

We now have aboriginal art on sale in the store and in the near future i will place some photo's on the website.

For the time being tho if anyone is interested please contact me as every piece is an original painting and we have very limited stock. First in first served so to speak.

Please bare in mind when you look through the web pages that these items are only a small proportion of the jewellery we carry. If you cant find what you want online feel free to contact me with a description of what you are looking for. Sometimes items that have been sold can be ordered .Will just take a little longer to arrive.

A lot of the jewellery is a one of especially the more expensive opals.

If we havent got it we will try to find it for you.

Remember opal is a good investment. The better quality stones are getting harder to come by. As time passes less and less good quality good size pieces of opal is being found.

Opals can only increase in value.

2010

Welcome to Glenelg Opal for 2010.

We wish to thank everyone that spent time browsing and buying from Glenelg Opal last year.

We hope that you purchase will bring you back again. Opals tend to get into your blood . One opal is never enough.

The past year was interesting..

We had one mail item lost.. returned to the shop 2mths later. We sent a replacement via express post with our appology.

Two delayed posted items arriving a week after they should have, fortunately the postal service is usually very reliable.

Then an attempted scam..

Buyer claiming item recieved wasnt what was paid for and wanting a refund. Photo sent of recieved item wasn't

our stock at all. Verified by our jeweler and the owner.

Postal service contacted and their reply was... Item delivered within proper time frame also registered and signed for. If package had been interfered with agent at recievers end would have noticed and so would reciever before it was signed for.With thousands of parcels delivered at that time of the year would be more than a coincidence someone would pick that paticular package have any idea what was in it and have similar item there on hand to swap and reseal package without any damage.

Consumer Affairs told me its happened before and will happen again, just have to be vigal.

Also all items sent are verified by two assistants at this end who see the correct item is placed in container to be sent that day.

Good try but the only time the order was able to be swapped was after it was delivered and signed for.

My only recourse was to ask the reciever to contact their postal service and file a complaint.

Please note-- if the item had been our stock a refund or replacement would have been made without question with a full apology also.

So all in all an interesting year. Welcome 2010.

Regards Jan.
