Psychology dictates that this type of activity helps people feel more connected and less lonely. Communities form around these types of subgroups, and if that helps someone make it through the day and enriches their life in some way, all the better.<br /><br />What I do take issue with is that it's such a horrific thing to do to another living creature. Those sad little oysters, whose little oyster lives are spent in misery just to satisfy the consumer demand for the shiny colorful product of their perpetual discomfort. Their remains, soaked with formaldehyde, are inedible and discarded as so much refuse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3798604115389836864.post-74952383516136747992018-08-02T01:51:26.381+01:002018-08-02T01:51:26.381+01:00Those of us who participate in pearl parties appre...Those of us who participate in pearl parties appreciate the time we spend with friends we've met while there. It beats going to a bar and spending even more money, or getting caught up in a drunken brawl.Many times, I dont make a purchase, rather go to talk and laugh with friends. The quality of the product is great to me. I actually make my own jewelry from the pearls I receive. In short, people have their own reasons for attending these shows. They are not scams. They're no worse than the shopping channels with some games thrown in to add a twist and some fun.

You do get what you pay for. It is fun to watch and open a pearl regardless. Just like going to a carnival and spending money to win a stuffed animal that probably wont happen. The sterling silver necklace and whatever I buy at the end of it alone is worth the 30 dollars. We are having fun with our money. Don't tell you how to spend yours. I don't drink, do drugs, hit the bar scenes or anything. So if I choose to spend less then 50 dollars to open a couple of oysters for a fake pearl to put into a piece of jewelry of my choice to make me smile so be it. If you don't like it move along and let us be. lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12674951317208360824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3798604115389836864.post-77802174981357653762018-04-02T02:17:37.879+01:002018-04-02T02:17:37.879+01:00If people want to buy the pearls it's their bu...If people want to buy the pearls it's their business, it entertainment for themAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3798604115389836864.post-26450869934235225432018-03-20T21:06:20.118+00:002018-03-20T21:06:20.118+00:00Where do you order them.

Lol. They're crap. It's fun to watch but it's not the same as a strong of tiffany pearls and real oyster farmers keep their oysters alive and are usually the forefront of the ecological movement, and use every part of the oyster including the shell. The oysters are packaged in dangerous chemicals, I haven't even discovered environmental effects of the dyeing process to know that is terrible for the environment. It's one thing to indulge for fun, but Facebook live oyster shuckers who smoke and swear while shucking raw, rotted meat preserved like middle school frogs to dissect and it's probably not even regulated, it's no Tiffany jewelry.

Same as Armani, Estee Lauder and other brands..very marked up!! Not selling it for what they paid for it...so are these scams too?? Your reasoning to why this is a scam is nonsensical..People are paying for the experience of the live party and these are real freshwater pearls ..just like in jewelry stores, and depending on the vendor, silver or in some cases white gold chains...I can tell u one thing..Tiffany & Co would charge a lot more for a mass produced 925 sterling silver necklace than these ladies do..so where is the scam ? Any seller marks up their merchandise otherwise how the heck would it be profitable?? I've never seen a pearl party where the hostess is attaching a value to the pearl, other than saying how beautiful, and the size etc..next time you're at the mall, wander into any store and listen as the sales people tell you about their special product ..is that a scam.?..just because u can buy it online for less? ..Annihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09151916989295723115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3798604115389836864.post-33881370549031773342018-03-09T17:38:00.950+00:002018-03-09T17:38:00.950+00:00You do realize all pearls are cultured?

This isnt a scam. Before you start making accusations against people who are doing they're job, read more into what your talking about. Because to me you sound like an idiot. The brighter the color, the more rare they are. I'm a customer of these pearl parties, but I did my research before I went and bought one through a live party. I got my pearl appraised and it came out to over 200$.
