I purchased a pair of 10K earring hoops from the eBay store back in July. I contacted this seller a month ago when I noticed the earrings were tarnishing and on earring actually was peeling. The seller responded back saying they were on vacation. I contacted them two weeks later and another excuse. They blamed my ears from tarnishing the gold. I have a variety of 10K and 14K jewelry. I prefer the 10K for hoops because they are stronger. I have earrings that are 10K from 40 years ago and they are still perfect. This is not 10K gold but gold overlay. This seller ripped me off $200 for costume earrings. Do not buy from this person because they are not trustworthy and won't respond back to me. I am out $200 - never has this happened to me before.
