14kt gold

LOL I got 'Walmart' on the brain. Sam's Club in the gold section.

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

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.
