Hey sorry for the delay everyone! Out offices were pretty badly effected by the Hurricane in Houston. The items have arrived at the massdrop facility and should be shipping any day now. We have put processes in place to avoid any future issues like these. We really appreciate everyones patience here!
Honestly, wearing Buddhist prayer beads as a fashion statement goes entirely against the core tenants of Buddhism. I just.. come on people. Am I the only one that sees this?
WanderingAIThese are not buddhist bracelets or prayer beads. These are stone beaded bracelets with so significant spiritual or religious meaning behind them.
Boys, boys, boys (and I use the term with reservation), stop tripping over yourselves to make other people wealthy! How does that old warning go?
"Those who don't learn from history are doomed to...buy worthless shit on Massdrop?"
Once upon a time some unscrupulous land developers duped a small group of naive land owners into selling their valuable island property for a handful of beads. This drop is the opposite: here, a group of unscrupulous merchants are trying to dupe naive young people into exchanging their hard-cold cash for a handful of beads!

Oh, bead bribery is it now? Don't try to entangle me in your web of capitalist corruption--I cannot be bought!
Maybe with beer and pizza, but certainly not with beads!
I bought 2 of these, the matte black and tiger eye for about $35. The build quality is good and the size is similar to peas. But honestly, definitely overpriced. Just search "Buddha bracelet" on Amazon or the Wish app and find lots of amazing variations for $1-5 a piece. Heck, even the Wish app gives it FREE with $3 shipping.
Beware #2: I've had these since Christmas, and the string has already snapped on one of them, EXTREMELY weak/cheap strings on the ones without visible knots
Beware: "Blue Sandstone" is not actually a stone. It's a type of glass, but they continue to represent it as "semiprecious" when it isn't. Also, in a comment from a couple months ago, they acknowledged that what they're selling as "white turquoise" is actually howlite. They said they would update future drops, but they did not. This drop seems not only overpriced but also dishonest.
wigginxAgreed "Blue Sandstone" is a man made glass. They are not gemstones and are made in a controlled environment with copper and cobalt oxides to form sparkling crystals which are captured within the glass. This glass can be faceted and carved into various shapes.
We will update the drop title to include glass items as we will be increasing the variants and colors available in future drops. Thanks for pointing that out!
Figured I should point this out, cursory fact check says that white turquoise just doesn't exist. Probably howlite, still s nice bracelet, just not as advertised.
