I can't speak for all the rocks they sell, but the batch I got was awesome. I love banded agate, and these are some of the most beautiful I've ever seen. I bought a couple palm stones at $20 each, and although smaller, these have even better banding. I can't say that they are all like the ones I'm talking about, but a few of these have banding with light brown clear stone in-between. You can actually look down into the rock in between the white bands. They're a little pricey at $20 a pound, but if they all had the look of the ones I'm talking about, I'd pay even more. They're not done tumbling yet, but I can tell that a few of these are going to be among my favorite rocks. Just a few more weeks in the tumbler, I can hardly wait!!!!! Update: I finished polishing these banded agates and they are gorgeous except for the cracks in them. I was thinking that I might have done something wrong when I was polishing them, but you can see the cracks in the pictures they show in the add. It's a shame to have these defects in such beautiful rocks. Would I buy them again? Not if I can find a source that has such beautiful rocks, but without the cracks. Yes, I did buy more. They were smaller this time, but had fewer cracks. The beauty of these stones exceeds the last batch that I was so pleased with. I don't know if they've been pre-tumbled, but they are not as rough as I expected them to be. I can see the beauty in them even before tumbling them. The banding is amazing.

Received these today and went thru them. A number of nice stripes. Most of the stones appear to have been tumbled as they are smooth still have depressions but surfaces are very smooth. I plant to tumbled them to see what we get.

Cut and polish happy with them

It's always a gamble ordering rocks online, but I am telling you that I was totally shocked. The agates are absolutley perfect. Every single stone is large, gorgeous and I can't wait to work with them. So good I immediatly ordered again. Thank you!

I received them today, I was very excited, they are so pretty but I am very disappointed because six of them are fractured in the middle. Fractures are deep which makes impossible to tumble. So sad because they are beautiful

I thought these would arrive rough but they are very smooth and shiny. Not totally tumbled to perfection, but at least partially smoothed. I will tumble a few of them and leave the rest as is. The gray and brown banding is gorgeous!

Was better than I had originally expected. I have them in the tumbler right now. I can only imagine the rock game is a up and down relationship with consumers having different tastes so in this case I'll give credit where it's due.

Was impressed with the high quality of the nodes. 1 fractured node in the group excellent. And the quality of the others exceptional
