You're a moron... this is your job so I would sure as hell hope you've never lost money on something you're slanging.

Congratulations on not being a total failure.

Damn. People in that holiday spirit I see.

Vancity always be like that though.

Do they ship? I'd cop one fast.

FACT, out of Jonas's portfolio, his jewelry was the best investments in the past 4 years. crazy, but dead $## true.

If we melted down Icee Fresh 2moro we'd be rich, but then what would I do for a real income? Supra & LRG only pay my car notes. remember, we're asmall shop who's website gets more traffic than any single custom jeweler on the planet (alexa.com research that) It's harder for an civilian tosometimes come up on jewelry or watches, but thats why I got into this business was to make bread. I'm utilizing my marketing skills to do so as well.

now even though I think LAX is about as smart as a bag of broken nails at times and I don't agree with most of his actions in this trade of jewelry, heuses that to his advantage and if you need a rolex or anything that has to do with a rolex in the west coast, he is 1 of those calls you might HAVE to makeother than Mosey or other big cats... A lot of people downtown may not like him, but they will call him to move something or find something, he's just oneof those jewelry rats who will survive period. he's made moves and as shady as his appearance may look to the normal snobby diamond client, I've neverheard about him jerking someone outright. he reminds me of how tetsujin.co.jp aka Saam who was a long time NTer got down when selling kix.

obviously you or lax is gonna make money on whatever they buy, as thats your job and how you make your living, i know enough people and have enough connectsto buy things at good prices to where I know if i decide to dump it I will come close to breaking even which is fine by me as im just a consumer although welleducated.. Im not buying anything to make money on it, I buy the stuff to rock and collect, although I prefer to buy something I know will hold value...I wasmore speaking on an average dude going to a store to buy something as a walk in, they will not get their money back when they go to sell it, thats just how theindustry works...

also i was just tryin to big lax up as well for his low prices and stuff ive gotten from him...

I was just tryin to point out if you wanna get something as a sole purpose of investment, dont buy jewelry or watches, buy something that will produce incomeover time... I buy a lot of watches and jewelry and sometimes Im lucky enough to make money when I get sick of it, but its never purchased to flip in my case,obviously in a jeweler or pawnbrokers case it is purchased to be flipped at a profit. I invest my money in the buildings and businesses from hotels, stores andeven a well known sneaker site I own to generate income that lets me be able to drop 20k on a watch or own the bentley and g55 outright. Those things arentinvesments, theyre made possible from real investments...

This is my first time posting on NT jewelry forum... I've been wanting a Jesus pendant for a while now. I'm going to have some money coming my way so I'm curious about the prices. I know some probably cost several thousand and run up to the ten thousands. I'm from NY so can any of you guys give me the price range for some of the Pendants below or give me any places that would sell them... yes I do know that Jacob made some of the pieces below. The price range I'm looking to spend is $5G - $10G.
