Paging AzTheta!

I don't want to dissuade you, really. However, opals today are not the same as you see on older badges like the ones we lust over in the Badge Trends thread. They are lighter, almost white, and don't have as much "fire" as the opals of yesteryear. Maybe there is a way you could see a sample of the opals you would be getting.
