Back in February of 2016 -whilst attending the Tucson Gem Show- our websites were hacked and rendered useless. We looked for people to help us clean up the pages, software to clean them up...but to no avail. All information was lost but we have finally managed to return! The amount of work needed to recover years of information has been responsible for our inability to upload all this information. We also wanted to make EXTRA SURE this would never, ever, happen to us again. We believe we have managed it finally by using the services of Shopify.com to store both our e-Sales website, our blog and other valuable information. So, we thank YOU for your patience and for not losing Faith in Us: we are better Pearl Farmers than Systems Managers. Our PLEDGE is to continue to share useful & interesting information with you and we Hope you will continue to be with us for years to come. Thank You! Sincerely, Douglas, Enrique & Manuel
