Very nice, Ray!  :shock:  :D  

I really wanted an Eickholt Jelly fish, but couldn't afford one when I saw them in L.A. in 2004     :(   Maybe if we get over to CA to visit this year ......  :roll:

Where did you get your Crisanti's?

Hi Ray and Leni

Back again ! I too can attest to the BRILLIANT jellyfish weights from Joe - the are amazingly good value for money and for certain the most realistic I have ever seen if you exclude Satava but I dont have that sort of money !

Incidently Leni if you e-mail Joe he will make one to your specification - height colour scheme etc.

He tends to use very thin padded envelopes for shipping so worth asking for an extra bit of bubble wrap around them.

Regards

Derek

I emailed Joe to ask for a weight and he just told me to look on ebay and find one I liked  :(

When I emailed again to say I liked a particular colour but would like it in a bigger size, he replied that I should just keep looking!  :?

However, I fell in love with one of his jellyfish pendants, so I ordered one of them instead!    :roll:  :wink:

Hmm. Shoals of jellyfish. Everywhere.

I hope these do not become so common that they lose their intrigue.

Although, as already indicated, trying to find (and being able to afford) a Satava Jellyfish (which are in class of there own, see link below) is a very diffcult thing, so it's good to see these ones available.
