in I wanna buy it or do it
I'd like to buy real stones like aventurine, gem stones, crystals etc.. but where do I get real ones/. amazon and eBay plenty there but I don't trust those sellers, it might be just plastic or whatever  and not real stones. Any reputable seller out there?
thanks

    I've bought from ebay with no problem. Avoid Chinese sellers & you should be fine. 
    Many of the Uk sellers on ebay do actually have a business & just use ebay as an extra marketing tool. 
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    Search on ebay using whatever particular item you are after and then look at the feedback score/number of items of that nature sold by the seller.

    You can filter eBay items based on their location. This can help ensure you are buying from someone in the UK. 
    The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.
