Fiddlesticks, its a nice looking bracelet. We lost our closest Sam's Club. DD once wanted to buy a pair of gold ball earrings. Since we were in Walmart I told her to pick them up there because of cost, explaining that karat marks were adhered to by all retailers. I have bought her other gold jewelry from QVC but basics are basics.

Yeah, walmart would have gold earrings, rolo bracelets I've never seen there. I've seen gold hoops there too.

best thing no waiting ! "in processing' my ***, then, mail waiting,

I like Sam's you always have to beg people to wait on you my biggest gripe.

I never thought I'd say Sam's club was one of my go-to places for jewelry...but it is!

@Sammycat1 I always use Costco. Several years ago I read an article (in Wall St Jour. I Believe)that Costco jewe. is as good if not better then you can purchase in Jewe. stores. I have made sev. purchases and there has never been a problem

@Sammycat1

As long as your educated in the finer points of jewelry buying doesn't make any difference if your buying from a high end jewelry store to where your paying for the location, fancy store, people standing around in suits, etc.

They have a high mark up to keep that store up.

Back in 2005 my father died left me some money. I wanted a 1 caret round solitaire in white gold. So, I go to a retail store they wanted 6500 , unmounted, that was extra. Then , I went to Sam's they had what I wanted all ready to go. VS1, color H I 14 kt white gold band, 4600 tax and all.

We don't have a Costco here in my area, but, when I go to Ind where I used to live they have one up there and I can't hardly stand it. BEAUTIFUL stuff but I don't have Kim Kardashian's money. You don't have any trouble getting waited on either. they watch you like a hawk.

Last one I spyed that I would die for LOL was 26,000 OUCH !

If nobody has been to one, go and get prepared to ooh and ahhh

I love Sam's jewelry.

Mine doesn't have much of a selection except close to Christmas.

I also buy from a local family owned store.

They give me a fair price, they are not married to typical retail.

Another great place to buy quality diamonds is USAA buying service. I lost a diamond, checked locally and ended up letting USAA pick one ( have them cut, carat, color). It was a beautiful stone and a real deal.

Interesting, never heard of that. I'll check into it.

@sligo @SharkE

Once I wanted a gemstone bracelet from Sam's and when I went to finally buy it, it had sold out. I ordered online and its source was from a supplier in the Diamond District in NYC. Flawless bracelet, great price.

@SharkE

You bet I know my jewelry! It pays to educate yourself. DH says I have a PhD in it, LOL!

We would get along sounds like.

You see where gold busted 1800 today ? 1808 an oz. I sold off a lot

when it was 1764. It's rumored to hit 2000 this yr. but, I'm not selling any more even at that price.

Like selling my children I want to keep some of them . LOL

@SharkE

We would definitely get along! I saw that about gold. I sold some years ago but I'm holding on the rest...for now! One must have some bling at all times.

yeah, I got an Imperial Gold bracelet and it's a flash as Mae West would say. I just recently bought Imperial Silver cuff it's very pretty.

I"m like a crow . If it flashes I got to have it. LOL

This isn't really the time to buy because of gold has went up so much, but, that rolo bracelet wasn't that expensive and I knew it would be long gone if I left without it, so, out came the Sam's card.

Don't know why, but, I've been on a rolo kick. I bought a silver real chunky one, bought a Brighton rolo, had a cheapie I liked from a craft show that was just stainless, but, I loved that it could roll off and on without asking somebody for help. Easy on and off. Maybe for Christmas i'll get a chunkier one ROFL

Another vote for Sam's club here. They have very nice jewelry and reasonable prices. I recently bought a 5 stone 1 carat band, and a 1 carat diamond heart pendant - 14K. And their stuff isn't set in flimsy gold. My pendant weighed 9 grams. I also have a 2 carat 14K bracelet from there.

Re: Sam's Club rolo

Sammycat1 — Sat, 11 Jul 2020 03:12:05 GMT

@froggy I completely agree that their pieces are not flimsy!

@SharkE My husband says "magpie alert" when I see something sparkly or shiny. We were in Sam's today and I saw your role----nice!

Isn't that cute ? I preach don't buy gold right now because it's at an all time high, BUT, LOL rolo's are hard to find and this one being right there and at the handy. No 'in processing' and mail waits I went for it.

I'll get a more expensive one for Xmas if I"m still on a rolo kick by then

chunky, chunky one. This is a small chunky LOL. My 2 sisters like small, delicate stuff I want 'go big or go home' stuff. ROFL

I'm gonna look Mon and see if they still have it or if they only got in a few. Glad I went ahead and got it.

Secret tip: Watch Penny's if they go out of business that gold will be on clearance. Gold is gold don't care where you buy it. They play these games where they jack the price way up, BUT, todays special they take this and that off and if you use your credit card more off till they get 1,000 piece down to 2-300.
