Review title: Pleil contributes unique perspective of former insider Product review: Evidently forbidden reading for Bruderhof associates, this book gives yet another angle on life in a "christian commune". For readers already intrigued with this peculiar social experiment Pleil's book is a must-read particularly because it seems to have touched a nerve with bruderhof leadership as will no doubt be reflected in other reviews appearing here.

Product review: I spent most of the last week in the Salida/Buena Vista/Royal Gorge area, and wasted ALOT of money on gas trying to find some of the fantastic mine tailings dumps and rock shops claimed to be in the area by this book. When one of the most highly recommended rock shops turned out to have been closed for five years, I started to wonder. I realized this book is just a summary of articles from Rock and Gem magazine, and many date back to the 1960s or earlier (1917???)! This book should be classified as fiction. For that matter, a few months back I tried to contact the state of Utah for permission to pan in the easements, as recommended in an article in R & G. They were horrified and knew nothing about it! It is illegal in Utah to be in the easements unless it is an emergency. So those of you planning a trip out west, don't base your agenda on either of these sources! Mitchell is cheaper and more reliable.

Review title: Despite gorgeous look WARNING : SHOULD YOU EVER NEED EVEN A LITTLE PART REPLACED Product review: I just got off the phone with one of your customer service represenatives . I had to order the endpiece to a watch band (the end piece that is closest to the watch itself. ) 5 dollars for that itty bitty piece but hey it is what it is but THEN came the news that really annoyed me. It can take 90 days for you to receive this!! Are you serious 90 days.. ok how bout if I order a whole brand new band? Nope still 90 days! She goes on to tell me that watch or screw or band it doesnt matter it can take a full 90 days. Im thinking Im not speaking to INVICTA but sure enough this is INVICTA. We dont keep stock here she said we order it from switzerland. Needless to say I am horribly dissappointed. I have ordered 2 Invicta watches in the pst but certainly dont want to do that again. It is ridiculous that something as siple as a screw or endpiece or even a whole band takes 3 months to get. Outrageous! Sorely dissapointed over here!
