I have seen Tears of the Moon around for a while and have ordered successfully from them a couple times before, just small orders and I had no complaints.

Recently I ordered a fairly large order including a few samples of their double flared eyelets in steel. Although I believe they are 316L and not 316LVM the price was right and consistent even in larger sizes.

I found the flares to be 'perfect' compared to the 'cookie cutter' versions on the market now. They also have a nice polish to them. I ordered them in 0g, 1/2" and 1 inch just to get a look at the different sizes. They were all the same length and equally beautiful.

I will be buying more from them and offering them for sale in my store soon.

Not to mention the customer service DOES rock... something I appreciate!

I help run a small studio and we offset expences with our gift shop. We have a lot of artists who are pierced and always looking for stuff. They are pretty picky about what they want in their bodies. We don't do really high volume or anything, but want to only sell stuff that is of really good quality and cool designs. I recently bought about $250 worth of body jewelry from TOTM. Several belly dangle designs that I had not seen anywhere else, Some things called lip loops that are like labrets but way better and a bunch of plugs. Tears was great, and when I asked if they had any more girly design than what was on the site, they emailed me pictures of stuff that they had just invented. Their customer service rocks! and I got my stuff within a week and the order was acurate and complete. I'd rate them a 10, and recommend them as a good source for a quality product and some unique design work.
