Your videos are very informative but you're very fucking annoying when you were talking to Shane with freshwater Jade. I feel my perspective is you think you're like a fucking guru in your not. Stop acting like you know everything and acting like you're some kind of fucking guru because you got eczema followers you're not you know nothing about the Jade world but you wanna make a little cute video about chain and you will never never never be able to match his artistry ever you're lazy cabochon maker and you get stones that will yield you a profit that's it that's all you do is build a profit and you're 100% lazy
Dude I felt that deep anger and hostility clear over here , like dang chill it’s cool just don’t watch him if he upsets you like that and find a Guru 😉and hey if you do find a Guru let me know I’m in the market for one ❤ Also I personally felt like he was hyping up the shop and giving her potentially more customers if anyone liked her pieces I mean I liked her stuff and i would have never known about it if I hadn’t seen it here, idk that’s just my personal opinion but maybe you saw something that I didn’t see but anyways always felt like Dave’s very neutral opinion and never cuts anybody down and gets them airtime but again people all comprehend what is said in different ways that’s both the good and unfortunate side of the communication process and everyone may not be able to articulate what they want to say in a way that will Please everyone ❤
You are so polite & kind to people - so even though it's a fascinating subject and I'm interested, it's also a real pleasure to hear you talk with folks. Thank you for this video and your time & efforts.

Dave thank you so much... cause of you i found what seems to be a great place here in Canada to buy fossils ... there actualy in Ontario and we are in the province of Quebec so 630 km away but they seem to have lots of stuff that i am looking for my Art work... i no theres tons in the USA but it makes it a bit more complicated...exchange rate and shipping ect... so anyway Thanks a million for your You tube work its Awsome...:) Adios and What a blessing ...
Lapidary Dave wait this summer cause you would freeze to death its 33 f now and thats warm for us....not for you im certain...😜 Favor Dave if ever u no of a very good distributor of fossils and gems would you be kind enough to send me there info... web site or facebook or instagram i would surely appreciate it...Take care and keep up your awsome videos... Adios Amigo🙏
I’m so in love with moonstone when you grabbed that ring omg I want one now. This reminds me of attending State Fair where they have Gem & Mineral show in this huge building. That’s as close as Tuscan for me right lol. It would be exactly 10 hrs drive for me from central Cali.....I know I can find similar items online or other local shop but the not the same as getting it from Tucson. I can’t say it’s a souvenir that’s what I want a souvenir instead of getting it from 3rd party.
LoversLane Hawj Absolutely there’s nothing like picking it out yourself it’s the best especially when the stone speak to you regardless of metaphysical properties when they call for you They are the best medicine

@@lapidarydave I would love to attend this show one day but it's a bit far and I'm so glad you have such detailed videos from the show. Some of videos from others go so fast but you provide a great explanation of the gems and with great knowledge. Thank you for your videos and your kind words to the venders. I really appreciate all the close up shots. I really feel like I have an idea of what is there and showing the business cards is a fantastic idea. I have checked some of them out already to get an idea of their inventory. Very helpful video series! It snowed here today but we expect that for this time of year. It will get warmer in May. Cheers!

Lolol. When that lady was saying that color is what you really got to look at for knowing if a stone is jade and j audibly talked to her through my phone saying "nahnahnah ah lady... that ain't true either!".

Such beauty....from our earth , what a trip. Do you ever see rainbow obsidian or color change andalusite ? And you play in a band ? ...Rock and roll !! Thanks dude.
Fantastic Dave. I envy your life. (just not your freezing cold workshop in winter) How can you not just spend all your money at that show. Everything is so cheep, yet , alas. I would go home broke.
malcolmsplace I often do but there’s not a better place to spend the ones money in the Tucson gem and mineral show once the show is over he realize that you never bought enough no matter how much money you spent everything becomes 5 10 Maybe 20 times or more valuable then when you bought them and if you’re cutting material you bought it can be 100 times more or even better
Ian Kalway Absolutely my brother it was totally a blessing to see you to share they are totally stunning pieces hope to see you in Denver if not I’ll see you next Tucson Thanks again for watching
Awesome video Dave, thank you so much for sharing. I hope we can run it to each other one day, you seem like such a cool guy. I used to play drums for a band called the desert ratz. From Hesperia ca. Now I'm a crazy rock hound and love it. Stay blessed Dave and thank you.
Shane Carubbi definitely man let’s meet up I might’ve heard of your band my friend in Mexico goes by the name desert ratt who used to share shows with us And folks would often mention that there was already a band named desert rat I wonder if it was you guysIt’s so cool that you’re in the rocks it can be a really lucrative business I make all of my money between rocks and music And though I’m not the richest it’s not a bad life thank you so much for watching my friend I really appreciate and feel free to ask me any questions anytime it’s my pleasure to answer
One of the BEST videos that I’ve ever seen of Tucson. I subscribed! Great information. I’m a crystal collector. Seeing these huge pieces is soooo awesome. Not much chance of seeing these in Indiana
terri dee Thank you so much for watching my friend I really appreciate the subscription I will be filming until at least the 16th I have about two or three videos in the works and I will be making many more showing off all of the gemshow that I didn’t get a chance to last year :)

R S Awesome my friend thank you so much for watching I really appreciate it you don’t need to go overboard although it’s very hard not to LOL just being there is an educational experience if you buy gems and minerals since it’s usually the cheapest place that one can find anything related to rocks gems and minerals
Hi Dave you are right, I recently bought some crystal cave and Indian turquoise jewelries in Wisconsin, which are not good prices and very limited selection. I already planned to be there on Jan, 2021. Hope by then everything back to normal and no COVID anymore, we can be free to enjoy the show. Hopefully see you there. Also thank you for your reply, you are very very nice, I will subscribe you.
R S I definitely hope to see you in Tucson this year it’ll be awesome if they let us do it my fingers are crossed for sure if it does happen I will be there no matter what I will be at the Kino electric sports complex venue come visit me and my grandma

I dislike treated crystals very much, makes me sad what they do to them. Irradiated crystals give me a disgusting buzzing feeling in my heart and stomach and all over.
I hired a homeless stranger off the street for my 2019 videos like happy Gilmore :) he turned out to be a awesome gentleman who has since passed away ❤️
Tiffany stone - heard a different story why there called Tiffany. A guy mined out these stones and the company Tiffany got very interested in them, and that’s why they got the name. That’s surely a blessing! 😉
Lilly Love Very interesting I have heard the same story myself however I asked the gentleman who owns the original mine in Utah and he said that it’s not exactly the case however it’s one of those beautiful things that the truth could be a conglomeration of all the stories put together
Lounis Rajah Totally my pleasure my friend make sure to check out the Denver 2020 gem show that I will be uploading in September and please consider subscribing if you haven’t done so already it really helps
Oh yea! I totally forgot about How everybody parties in Tucson doing Super Bowl weekend there’s a few places to get free food and drinks at a few of the nicer venues
I love learning from Kyle Russell ❤️ When I was getting started I was sold Serpentine as Jade so often. And sometimes I dont think people mean to they just dont know. However, when I resell it I don't want to misinform my buyers.
Wasn’t even aware of this huge annual Tucson Gem Show until I started watching another channel on opals (Black Opal Direct). This video (and the show) is AMAZING!! 😃👍🏻 OH... and a new Les Paul? 🎸😎🤘🏼

Here in Florida we do find a ton of megalodon teeth. Unfortunately, many people don’t realize they’ve found meg teeth because sometimes they’ll find smaller teeth and rule it out. Anyways, the reason we find so many is because all these streams, and rivers, and swampy areas, etc all used to be quite underwater and frequented by megalodons. it’s truly a perfect spot due to perfect circumstances.
I was born and raised in Florida however I never got into looking for gems minerals or fossils which is totally unfortunate now that it’s such a big part of my life when I go back to Florida I will definitely spend some time looking for some of the amazing things around the area :) Thank you so much for watching
Brian Hett Sharing the prices as one of my most favorite parts of vlogging gem shows I think it something that I can do that is a little different than other folks that share the gem show However some of the vendors really don’t like me filming the prices because a lot of the times things are a lot more expensive than they normally would be depending on the venue I got kicked out of a lot of booths during the Tucson convention center show for sharing the prices LOL that video is going to come soon Thank you so much for watching I really appreciate it my friend

Definitely if you think about it raw material probably cost less than a dollar and is probably less than a dollar worth of silver so the rest is just what it cost to make a professional jeweler could probably make 20 of these in an hour they are definitely made overseas where people are getting paid sometimes Has little or less than what we make for a minimum wage in America

The next big one is in Tucson which was usually in January but it got moved to April then after that the next large one might be in Denver it didn’t get canceled last year but it’s in September so who knows
TrajanaFortis thank you for watching my brother I am at the Kino electric sports park set up Near the food court across from the fudge vendors my grandma is selling native American hand drums her my grandpa and our friends have made and I’m selling mostly turquoise cabs and gemstone pop sockets come by and visit it would totally be a pleasure

Tripping on Rocks thank you so much I really appreciate it my friend :)
I love Taos! Would love to return there someday but it would be very sad. Thanks for the great videos
If you ever decide to come to Taos let me know we can make some beautiful shiny rocks in my studio
This guys manners are a blessing.
Brianna Gordy thanks for watching:)
Yes u show prices and you talk way better than most gem show videos I see
lifeislikewater 78 wow thank you so much for that brother I really appreciate it:)
Such beauty....from our earth , what a trip. Do you ever see rainbow obsidian or color change andalusite ? And you play in a band ? ...Rock and roll !! Thanks dude.
Diane Green I sure do a lot of Mexican vendors here have some fantastic rainbow obsidian’s
Fantastic Dave. I envy your life. (just not your freezing cold workshop in winter) How can you not just spend all your money at that show. Everything is so cheep, yet , alas. I would go home broke.
malcolmsplace I often do but there’s not a better place to spend the ones money in the Tucson gem and mineral show once the show is over he realize that you never bought enough no matter how much money you spent everything becomes 5 10 Maybe 20 times or more valuable then when you bought them and if you’re cutting material you bought it can be 100 times more or even better
thank you so much for living for us
Thank you so much for the support my friend and thank you so much for watching it’s really a blessing
@@lapidarydave how r u dave. I am Jason. i will follow u

Ian Kalway Absolutely my brother it was totally a blessing to see you to share they are totally stunning pieces hope to see you in Denver if not I’ll see you next Tucson Thanks again for watching
Awesome video Dave, thank you so much for sharing. I hope we can run it to each other one day, you seem like such a cool guy. I used to play drums for a band called the desert ratz. From Hesperia ca. Now I'm a crazy rock hound and love it. Stay blessed Dave and thank you.
Shane Carubbi definitely man let’s meet up I might’ve heard of your band my friend in Mexico goes by the name desert ratt who used to share shows with us And folks would often mention that there was already a band named desert rat I wonder if it was you guysIt’s so cool that you’re in the rocks it can be a really lucrative business I make all of my money between rocks and music And though I’m not the richest it’s not a bad life thank you so much for watching my friend I really appreciate and feel free to ask me any questions anytime it’s my pleasure to answer
One of the BEST videos that I’ve ever seen of Tucson. I subscribed! Great information. I’m a crystal collector. Seeing these huge pieces is soooo awesome. Not much chance of seeing these in Indiana
terri dee Thank you so much for watching my friend I really appreciate the subscription I will be filming until at least the 16th I have about two or three videos in the works and I will be making many more showing off all of the gemshow that I didn’t get a chance to last year :)
Lapidary Dave do you have a Facebook or webpage?
I do have a Facebook you can find me via typing in lapidary Dave I have a bunch of videos on there and that will direct you to my personal page also I have a Instagram which is #LapidaryDave
terri dee I’m from Michigan City- didn’t go this year to the show, I’ve been 4 times, I’d like to see the Ontario show, I think that’s the next show
I love Michigan because people from Michigan love people from Michigan I’m from Florida and no one has ever been excited who is also from Florida to meet me LOL JK let me know when the Ontario show is I would love to go
Oh wow! So much cool shtuff! I miss going to rock and mineral shows. Stupid covid! New subscriber here. Look forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you so much brother appreciate you watching you have a great channel I can’t wait to see your next video
Absolutely stunning video absolutely fantastic what a blessing. Look at this bad girl. Go to Argentina... for the 🎶
CrackSabbath lol yep pretty much
Thanks for sharing, this video is very good for me. I decided to buy some crystals from your video. 👍👍👍
Awesome
So glad to have made it to the gem show this year! We are going home tomorrow sadly. It was so amazing and I have you to credit for a lot of the info I found about the shows! Thanks for all you do for the gem community. Saw you walking around at the kino show today lol
Brooke Butler LOL you should’ve said hi he would’ve been awesome anyway I’m so happy to hear that you had a great time here in Tucson thank you so much for the comment and for watching it’s truly a blessing and an honor
In all of your videos I have rarely seen any pink Amethyst from Patagonia Brazil. Is it that rare that no one seems to have much or any?
The reason I stopped going to the Chicago Gem and Mineral show... It became the Gem and Jewelry show !!!
What a blessing!
Jeremy Bussert lol I’m trying not to say it ever 10 seconds Some days are better than others thank you so much for watching I really appreciate it
Stumbled upon your channel and love it!
Alexandra juistinga thank you so much for watching I really appreciate it it’s truly a blessing to have you enjoy my videos store feel free to share with your friends and family if you think they would enjoy and please consider subscribing if you haven’t done so already it really helps the channel :)
Thank you so so much Dave, I will prepare enough budget to visit there !!
R S Awesome my friend thank you so much for watching I really appreciate it you don’t need to go overboard although it’s very hard not to LOL just being there is an educational experience if you buy gems and minerals since it’s usually the cheapest place that one can find anything related to rocks gems and minerals
Hi Dave you are right, I recently bought some crystal cave and Indian turquoise jewelries in Wisconsin, which are not good prices and very limited selection. I already planned to be there on Jan, 2021. Hope by then everything back to normal and no COVID anymore, we can be free to enjoy the show. Hopefully see you there. Also thank you for your reply, you are very very nice, I will subscribe you.
R S I definitely hope to see you in Tucson this year it’ll be awesome if they let us do it my fingers are crossed for sure if it does happen I will be there no matter what I will be at the Kino electric sports complex venue come visit me and my grandma
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE SHOW!!! One day hopefully next year I will visit it for myself. Its on my list of things to do. I want to start lapidary and want to go stock up on some rough
Lyle Pascoe What’s the best place to buy in the entire world largest show in the world and you will learn so much is from walking around and talking to people thank you so much for watching it’s really a pleasure
I have lot off item crystal anyone interested comment me
@@mazharsaiyed6554 Hi,
What rough do you have?
@@lylepascoe7243 do you have whatsapp direct contact me i will give you my best quality and price
Thanks
Helo
Omg, I could spend a million dollars in 30 minutes there‼️
Deborah Anne Hart A woman said to me one of the first days of the show that $2 million wasn’t enough for her lol. Thank you so much For watching I really appreciate it it’s truly an honor feel free to share if you think your folks and friends would enjoy
Oooooooooh, YES!
I dislike treated crystals very much, makes me sad what they do to them. Irradiated crystals give me a disgusting buzzing feeling in my heart and stomach and all over.
Matt atron I totally agree with you my friend it’s very deceptive and very rude to the crystal medicine
137% with ya on that one Matt!
@@lapidarydave So true, and it doesn't improve their energy, at the contrary !
Finally, here is a man like me, who respects and loves the products of nature in their original state rather than disguising them!
my film crew?!?(😁😂🤣)
whoa dave dont get too ahead of yourself..lol just kidding love you brother!
I hired a homeless stranger off the street for my 2019 videos like happy Gilmore :) he turned out to be a awesome gentleman who has since passed away ❤️
Good to watch but not mentioned the venue of exhibition and its date as well as the next exhibition programme and its schedules also not seen?
Tiffany stone - heard a different story why there called Tiffany. A guy mined out these stones and the company Tiffany got very interested in them, and that’s why they got the name. That’s surely a blessing! 😉
Lilly Love Very interesting I have heard the same story myself however I asked the gentleman who owns the original mine in Utah and he said that it’s not exactly the case however it’s one of those beautiful things that the truth could be a conglomeration of all the stories put together
Thank you for sharing with us
Lounis Rajah Totally my pleasure my friend make sure to check out the Denver 2020 gem show that I will be uploading in September and please consider subscribing if you haven’t done so already it really helps
And it just so happens that I'm viewing it exactly one year ago today, as today is Superbowl Sunday like he just mentioned... synchronicity.
Oh yea! I totally forgot about How everybody parties in Tucson doing Super Bowl weekend there’s a few places to get free food and drinks at a few of the nicer venues
I love learning from Kyle Russell ❤️ When I was getting started I was sold Serpentine as Jade so often. And sometimes I dont think people mean to they just dont know. However, when I resell it I don't want to misinform my buyers.
아름답고 독특한 제품들이 많아서 보고 있으니 즐거워요.독특한 색챙와 형태를 가진 원석들을 보니 정말 놀라워요.
Wasn’t even aware of this huge annual Tucson Gem Show until I started watching another channel on opals (Black Opal Direct). This video (and the show) is AMAZING!! 😃👍🏻 OH... and a new Les Paul? 🎸😎🤘🏼
TrubadorPhotography yep new les Paul I bought for a crazy price on the local facebook marketplace
Black opal direct is definitely a cool channel

AlvinWins Thank you my friend I really appreciate your appreciation it’s truly a blessing and an honor life is good God is good
Here in Florida we do find a ton of megalodon teeth. Unfortunately, many people don’t realize they’ve found meg teeth because sometimes they’ll find smaller teeth and rule it out. Anyways, the reason we find so many is because all these streams, and rivers, and swampy areas, etc all used to be quite underwater and frequented by megalodons. it’s truly a perfect spot due to perfect circumstances.
I was born and raised in Florida however I never got into looking for gems minerals or fossils which is totally unfortunate now that it’s such a big part of my life when I go back to Florida I will definitely spend some time looking for some of the amazing things around the area :) Thank you so much for watching
Thank You 🙏..
thanks for putting the prices! a lot of people don’t bother
Brian Hett Sharing the prices as one of my most favorite parts of vlogging gem shows I think it something that I can do that is a little different than other folks that share the gem show However some of the vendors really don’t like me filming the prices because a lot of the times things are a lot more expensive than they normally would be depending on the venue I got kicked out of a lot of booths during the Tucson convention center show for sharing the prices LOL that video is going to come soon
Thank you so much for watching I really appreciate it my friend
My husband was born and raised in Taos...Talpa. Great Vlog
A knee moose That is so cool that your husband was born in Taos Talpa area I play a lot of music in talpa :) thanks so much for watching I really appreciate it

Mark Held Thank you so much my brother and it was a real pleasure meeting you truly an honor and a blessing
Best of best i like your video i am crazy minerals collector .
John Sum Heck yeah brother in Tucson is a place for you I hope to see you here someday
That beatiful opal ring was 30 dollars. WOWSA. Id love to go there.
Definitely if you think about it raw material probably cost less than a dollar and is probably less than a dollar worth of silver so the rest is just what it cost to make a professional jeweler could probably make 20 of these in an hour they are definitely made overseas where people are getting paid sometimes Has little or less than what we make for a minimum wage in America
That was great. Thanks. The only thing wrong is that I haven't been there.
Mike Breeden thank you so much for watching my friend I really appreciate it :) you should come next year I will show u around
