Thanks, Robb! I did visit Artbeads but felt the prices were too high for my budget, especially after you factor in the shipping costs - I'm not in the US so it'll never be free shipping for me.
I would like to recommend ebeadstore and eebeads, I ordered from them both after Fire Mountain, their prices might surprise you.
With regards Tinker, he's reunited with her this week and writing about the reunion at livejournal; please look up the username Shanlung9.

Great review on Firemountain. My wife and I order from them quite often. If you are interested in another site, I've written a review on Artbeads.com. They are good source for Swarovski's and their prices are competitive. Another source we order from is Auntiebeads.com.

As an aside, I went to your husband's website and saw Tinker. My son has an African Grey (Cisco). Also, If you have not met her, check out our fellow epinionator, Birdfeather's profile page, as well as her homepage.

Your writing is great. Have a good day!
