Two places in Ireland that have big mail-order business, and specialize in Waterford Crystal, are: Cash's [big dept store] Shannon Airport Duty-Free Store Cork, Ireland Co. Clare, Ireland Sorry I don't have full mailing addresses, but any mail should reach them with that much information. Waterford Crystal is much cheaper in Ireland than the US, particularly now that the poor Irish Pound is worth only 98 cents - compared to about $1.40 a couple of years ago. A word of caution, however: their quality control isn't what it used to be, and sending flawed crystal back and forth across the Atlantic could get to be rather tiresome. I'd rather pay a bit more and choose my own pieces at a store here... Good luck! -- rod williams ------------------------------------------- [decvax!decwrl!amdcad!dual!ptsfa!ptsfc!rjw]
