My father just came back from Columbia with a bunch of emerald jewelry for my wife and daughter when he came to cisit! I wish I knew I would have had him pick some up for you too! Apparently thats where good emeralds come from but what do i know

I didn't even know that! Thanks for the info :D

Most silver jewelry that is commercially produced is coated to ward this off though. And if its kept put away in a jewelry box where its not subject to humidity and dirt in the air it extends that. or being worn often your skin will naturally burnish it. When it does tarnish, nothing a toothbrush and a toothpaste with baking soda won't fix!

Yup, I believe I heard preorders may be 12/20/12 lol He's starting laser engraving now, which I guess helps make them even more crazy!

What do you use most of the time? Caravela?

S-doom, are they gonna make it???? :w00t:

It's so crazy! LOL

Thank you for showing that!! LMAO Kami NEEDS one of those!

(I need a switch like that with 2 knurled rings!!! :mad: )

Oh, and since you peps are talking about emerald, green is my favorite color! Which will be the tips I go for, tomorrow if I'm not mistaken? What all do I need to know for this sale? There were a few that caught my eye. I don't think I noticed a number by the tips? Is the sale process easy(I'm guessing it's hectic)

Yeah, Caras or my Mini ProVari with tanks .... I used to use my Katana all the time, but I need to re-do the coil, and I just haven't gotten around to it. :(

Ok ... going to do that right now! LOL

Cyclin really?? :ohmy:

Good emeralds without a lot of inclusions are really hard to find now days. I have a REALLY good emerald in a ring, but it's REALLY small. :laugh:
Ya I'll let him know next time he goes down there. He spends maybe 6 months a year there, his company sends him from Texas to different countries cause its cheaper for the military to ship out and house mechanics on location rather than fly the jets back to be worked on on home soil.

Awesome I'm telling the Mrs and my sister now! They thought the jewelry was fake that got a little colored, I told them it was real but didn't know this info. Thanks a lot!

S-doom - go register at Trippy Tips .com and look around so you are familiar with the pages.
The tips all go up when Bert says "GO!" (here), and it is a mad, crazy, horrendous rush.
Best advice = get ONE tips you love, put it in your cart and check out.
Tips can be "stolen" from carts, so you have ZERO time to look around. :laugh:

In the time it takes to refresh, tips are GONE!
You can get as many as you want/can, but loading up your cart with multiples is a road to disaster.

TrippyTips.com Sale Night Info & Suggestions:

-Create an account at TrippyTips.com
-Sign up for the newsletter. Newsletters usually go out the day of the sale, sometimes the day before. Sales can begin approximately one hour after the Tipped Off Newsletter goes out, so you will need to check this thread for the latest info as soon as you receive the newsletter.
-Have a paypal account set up, it’s the only way to purchase.
-Clicking checkout with paypal is quicker than just going through checkout.
-Going for only one tip then checking out increases your chances of getting the tip you want. You can always go back for another.
-Any tips that someone else gets through checkout with before you do will become out of stock and you will have to remove them from your cart before you can checkout with any tips that are still in stock.
-Look back to this thread occasionally to check for estimated upcoming sale dates.
-There is no constant set sale time or day. Bert holds sales at varied times and days of the week to accommodate the schedules of people all over the world. This last few months there has usually been a sale every other week.
-You must check the thread or watch for the newsletter to know when the next sale will be held.
-When you see Bert post "GO" the sale has started!
-Trippy Tip sales can be a bit hectic. The batches have been larger lately so the 1st 1/2 are gone in what seems like 2 minutes and you usually have a little bit longer to go after another tip(or 3) after that 1st rush.
-Because of the hectic nature sometimes we all miss out on tips we really wanted. Try not to get discouraged! There is always another sale and with every sale is a new batch of tips that somehow Bert and Freddy find a way to make even more amazing than the last.
-Watch for trades and sales in the classifieds a few days after the sale, they happen frequently.
-Trippy tips are glass, so yes they can break. It's not a common occurrence, but it does happen. Many of the tips that have broken have been fixed by Bert and Freddy.
-Please feel free to join in with the chatting here, we talk a lot, about pretty much everything and we are always happy to have another person join in the fun
-If you have any questions please feel free to ask! This thread is full of people that will happily offer help and information.


A quick reference for shapes of tips as per Bert
Bulb ()
Taper Δ
Donut (o)
Pillar {}
Peanut )(
Helix (/)
Flatmouth ( )
Helix donut §


Good luck! I do hope you find the Trippy Tip of your dreams... some of us find them repeatedly

~De~

Sorry if my version is a little out of date :oops:
