from a jewelers point of view, the prices going up isn't good for business.
it makes it harder for my regulars who don't follow the stock market to buy jewels, the margins are gettin ugly.
You ain't lying. For a while people were running when they would hear the prices, especially since alot of people quit buying jewelry after 9-11. Now that alot are coming back, they're in shock at the gold prices. Good thing is the prices are high everywhere so once they see that they slowly start coming back. Been selling hollow chains like crazy. I hate them and can't stand them to be honest, but most people just don't have the money. Feel like I'm gonna break a hollow chain just by picking it up, but you can't get nothing decent for under a grand. And thats not even something big.
There's another style we might try for those that wanna floss but don't have the cash. Air-hollow chains. Been reading about them and supposedly they're very strong. Still I hate picking up a big chain that weighs nothing.
