I just looked at them in the video and they looked washed out to me, too. 

ETA- I don't care for the closure. Would rather have a more secure one, for instance one that has a push-lock on it. For me omega backs are not very secure and they can easily be pulled right off the ear.

Interesting ... the omega backs are the only ones I'll wear.  For me, they are more secure than lever backs (get caught on scarves and collars) and studs.  I've lost studs, never lost an omega.

Yes, @ALRATIBA  I love omega-backs but my favorite kind is this push-lock type:

 I got the smaller blue topaz. The color was light but not washed out and stones good for the size of the hoops.

  I bought them because I like that type of closure, it is very secure and well worth the price.

You have to consider the smaller stones and those of low quality will have washed out color.   That's why the low price.  Did you ever see a high-grade peridot -- beautiful.  Peridot is my birthstone and always disliked the color until I purchased a really good peridot ring.
