Jewelry

Anyone who knows anything about jewelry and gold prices today KNOWS that a $200 gold bracelet is a lightweight piece. That's why we see silicone filled and gold over silver pieces.

Really? What is "LTS"? I've always been hesitant to buy "as is" items for fear they may be damaged or defective.

I guess EZ-pays are attractive to folks who want to finance purchases with no interest costs -- although I suspect EZ-pays are also a great way to get yourself into financial trouble if you're not very disciplined and careful!

For sure! Last summer I bought two expensive items on E-Z pay and I couldn't wait to pay them off. It was nice having the low payments, but every month I had to continually remind myself that I couldn't buy certain things because I already had an ongoing bill. That really took some discipline.

LTS = Lunchtime Special

I like the As Is section. I've received items that were brand new, merely discontinued.

Quality Varies Considerably

I get some great items from the Q and some that are "not so great". Which is OK, but the luck of the draw is a recipe for returns and we don't want to get in trouble with that!!!LOL

I try to shop with extreme caution!

Sorry to say.....Quality Very Compromised !!! Look up definition of compromised on Google and you will find... ""Accept standards lower than is desirable"". That about sums it up.
