These are beautiful pearls, and the price is the best I have found anywhere. The pearls were shipped very fast and arrived in a nice box with a pearl case inside. I would definately reccomend these pearls. Also you can call and ask for the certificate of authenticity from Sam at 877-365-6333.

Purchased as a gift for a new Grand Baby. Checked out jewelry stores and online pearl sources. Sam's Club beat prices by over half for same AAA rated pearls, plus having the ease of returns to a store if not satisfied. These pearls are beautiful. My pearls are between 60 and 30 years old purchased at different times in Japan. I always thought my pearls were so fine until I put them up next to these new pearls. The color and luster is definitely AAA.

The best quality jewelry, beautifully wrapped, & sooo fairly priced. These pearls are perfect. Lustrous, uniform in size & color, and the weight! Pretty delicate gold clasp. Should have seen her face when she OPENED THEM! Couldnt ask for more, let me tell you! Please... never go away. Ive got a lot of kids!!! And... I kinda love gorgeous jewelry too!!!

Great string of saltwater pearls...there is no comparison with fresh water ones. These are beautiful. They also come package in a stunning case and box. Presentation ready!

I will be buying matching earrings, oops should have known better, and bracelet for next occasion!

It is really pretty and well made I love it.

This is a great present. I gave it to my wife for anniversary gift. Well made on the string and clasp is strong. The pearls are all matched in size and color. She loves it.

So, I wasn't satisfied with the first necklace that I received, I was being very picky over quality. I contact Sam's Club who put me into contact with Sam (jeweler) and told him about my issues with the current necklace. He understood & sent me a returned shipping label. I sent it back & got a new one several days later that was superb. I am very happy with the necklace & very happy with Sam's (the jeweler) customer service. Great job!

Pearls are beautiful, but they look smaller than 7-7.5 mm. They came in an ugly, misshaped box with no price tag and no certificate of authenticity. I would have to take them to a jeweler so he could tell me if indeed they are Akoya pearls. Very disappointed with presentation.

Read the other reviews and several people complained about little red dots on some of the pearls. Not sure if they use the dots to drill holes, but mine also had them. Some of the pearls also had weird imperfections on them like they had been sprayed with some sort of coating and it had pooled at the bottom of them into a big blob. Spoke with the company who shipped the pearls about it and they said they would contact me about getting a replacement necklace. Followed up with them twice and no one facilitated a return or replacement. Spoke with Sam’s club who said someone from the jewelry department would contact me but after calling twice and leaving my contact info twice I have not had any one call me back yet. Overall very disappointed in the quality and customer service. I ordered a different necklace from a different wholesale club and even though they were slightly more expensive the quality of the Pearl is a lot nicer. Disappointed with the way this turned out.
