I bought these earrings along with the sterling silver pair. I gave the gold pair as a gift and kept the silver pair for myself. Now where else can you buy this type of item for a .01? I mean really?? Ok, so the shipping is maybe a little high, but even at that, you couldn't buy the same for even at that total! I do admit, that the stones are larger than I was actually wanting, only because I have small ear lobes, so I will order the multi-sizes option later. With all that being said, these earrings are GORGEOUS!! They sparkle and look so much like the 'real thing'!! So, yes, I am very happy with my purchase and Amazon always delivers on their promise, I received the order just like they said I would and will continue to shop with them- keep up the good work Amazon team!
