Watching the JTV gemstone show, I saw a beautiful RED mexican fire opal.
The price was right. I decided to buy it based on the carat weight and the amazing color. When I received it, it was pale yellow. Nothing like the stone being shown under the item number. I returned the fire opal, and wrote a letter to their customer "care" department telling them they should be ashamed of the "bait and switch"! Never heard a word.
