I had ordered this product and left a review/message because I hadn't received it. The same day I was contacted that a new one would ship. I have since received the 5 inch sandglobe and cannot seem to take my eyes off of it. I roll it over and over and am completely taken in by the moving sand revealing different shells every time. It is much larger than I anticipated, more beautiful that I expected, and I was very impressed with the customer service I received. It is a great quality product. I'm truly impressed.

This beautiful paperweight allows me to take a beach vacation any time I wish.
The sands are ever changing and always beautiful.
I particularly like the fact that I can remove the bottom and change the items on the beach.

When my three Dune Sand & Shell Sandglobes(3,4,and 5inch ones,)arrived I was in heaven. They arrived safely and timely and with much to my delight, stories to tell within them. If you use your trusty imagination,as I do, you can almost hear Heathcliff calling for Cathy from the 5inch globe, and from the 4inch one, you can hear the padding of little feet, and I mean really little, sandpipers and seagulls as they wander from shell to shell. Finally, the 3inch one is so whimsical, you feel like you are holding your own little universe, so pristine and beautiful, and like the others, you can hear, the cry of the seagulls, or characters from your favorite books who traversed the coastlines, waiting for you to pick them up and remember them. All of this just from saving pennies to buy them so I can keep one and send the rest as gifts at Mother's day, or whenever you want. It's your world and Dune/Amazon makes it possible to hold a piece of history, or romance or whatever flights of fancy your mind can take you on, just by using your noggin, and imagination. By the way, I bought another three more, as really special gifts. Once you get one, I think you will agree, it is worth so much more than the mere mundane price you pay, you get back your once-in-a-blue-moon childhood summertime visits to the sea. And that my friends, is priceless.

I ordered this item on March 30, paid for it but have never received it. The seller will not respond to my emails. What's up with this company since I see this has happened to others?

I ordered this item to ship to a friend's daughter before I was to travel to spend a week with them. I ordered it in plenty of time (in fact, an item I ordered from a different reseller for their son showed up early). I not only didn't receive a shipping date from this reseller and they passed the estimated delivery date without communication, but I sent them an email more than a week ago, asking for further details. I received no response. I just sent them an email, asking to cancel my order.

Obviously, I won't order from this reseller again.

I lived in Pensacola and I miss it so much. Now I can pick this globe up and I can feel my stress ooze away. This is a great conversation piece! I love it!

This is a hard to find item. It was formally the Beach Ball. When my son broke my Mom's I was glad I could replace it.
