It's interesting you found that.

 

I had a long day behind the wheel yesterday, I stopped at Sam's Club for gas and needed to stretch  my legs, went inside, got a drink and a pretzel (addictive!) and looked around the jewelry counter.

 

I was impressed with the variety, styles and price.

 

I have my eye on a high polish sterling bangle  $109

I have this bangle and several others from Sam's Club....and they're  gorgeous!

Tomorrow's show may fill the needs for people looking for some basics. Some of the silver without nickel is fairly nice.


 

 

@Trinity11   I’ve had my basics for many years. I’m also fortunate to have access to jewelry shows and wholesale catalogs that offer the basics and stones I like to make pieces for myself.

@Kachina624  ...

 

I have that pendant you posted ... and it's more than 10 years old.  I know this because I haven't purchased any silver jewelry, other than Carolyn Pollack's, in at least 15 years.

Re: Repetitious Jewelry Items

Maybe years ago, when silver and gold cost less, Q may have kept a large inventory. Those are the older pieces we keep seeing repeated.

 

I assume now that most pieces are ordered as requests come in. The vendors may stock best selling jewelry ready to ship. 

 

It would be quite costly for Q to stock 5000 silver bracelets, necklaces or rings of each item # and keep stock in the warehouse. They are promised a certain number for immediate delivery and then it goes to a future ship date to give the vendor time to produce more inventory.
