BBSD

Where the heck is BBSD. There is a jewelry day on March 14. It doesn't have anything to do with silver. Why are you ruining something that so many look forward to. We want affordable jewelry, not diamonds and gems in the hundreds and thousands. Obviously you don't care about your audience that made you great. This is terrible and and an awful way to conduct business. I am thoroughly disappointed and disgusted.

Retailers cannot be unchanging in ever changing times. The downfall of the mighty Sears and Roebucks taught the world this. QVC is reinventing their wheel so there will continue to be a QVC.

I guess everyone who is anyone knows what BBSD is-Not!

I come up with Brentwood Borough School District

and I'm ashamed to say I actually looked it up.

Still don't know.

As I recall it was Big Bonanza Silver Day. I can't remember the last time I heard anything about it.

I notice that ShopHQ and ShopLC have been selling high end diamond and tanzanite pieces in the thousands lately. Sometimes they will show a diamond ring for like 799 but buyer beware, the diamonds are I1 and they are loaded with inclusions. Known as "dirty" diamonds. ShopLC is good for that! They will tell you the diamond color is G, H which is very good color but dance around the clarity or not mention it at all. You see it on the description of the ring they are selling I1. You want SI1 or SI2 or VS VVS near colorless but of course you will pay more. I've seen ShopLC sell I3 diamonds.

@Marciirene

Yep agree, selling high priced but not high end.

I seldom WEAR diamonds, but I own some. I need to SEE them in person before I fork over any cash.

@brcala. They also canceled Creede Silver Day in October so don't look for that.

There were a lot of complaints over the past several years that there was nothing new or exciting offered in these events, so I'm not surprised they have discontinued them.

Personally, I don't care for 24 hours of anything.
