My beading ruler was very marred and scrapped. Also, I received my other 2nd packed and it was unsealed in my mailbox. Thankfully everything was there.

No problems with the order or the delivery. The beads' colors look different in person but trying to judge colors online can be challenging.

I look forward to shopping at Potomac Beads.

I wish Delica Beads were not sorted my finish. I don't always know what finish I want. And, I wish DB numbers and names didn't change which makes it so hard to match. Customer Service was very helpful to help me find the color closest to what I already had but didn't exist in Potomac's inventory. Thanks

I am fairly new to Potomac Beads, but have been completely satisfied with the quality of items and the speed in which they are shipped. (Beads actually arrive before I forget what I was going to do with them!) SCORE!
