At a yard sale last week someone told me his company sells returned merchandise in lots that have been returned to stores. I just called him and he got one lot in of 600 - 700 pieces of jewelry from Macys I have to buy the full lot. I can't pick and choose. The lot goes for $1.80 each pce.

I can come and go through it, but just to look. I never go to the mall, but all I remember in macys fine jewelry of gold and silver. I am sure they have costume jewelry. The only problem is it is a one hour drive and I need to leave work a bit early. Won't do it today, lots of work.
 

It would depend on the jewelery, I would definately go look at it and see what it is though. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

I promise you that you will like the eagles better.

Because I make an instant profit on jewelry. I never pay spot, or even close.

I bought some broken gold this weekend for $122 and I took to two different WE BUY GOLD stores. The first offered $50, I pushed for better and he thought and thought and punched the calculator keys some more and offered $60 :dontknow: The other store offered $87 ??? I calculate true value to be $177 I try to pay more and still make something.
