George Edwards Jewelers

Great news!
I'm back in business. Better news, gold has shot up to over $1700/oz.

So, a husband and wife stop in to get her ring sized. After that's taken care of, almost as an afterthought, she pulls out this little bag (quart size BTW) of old gold. Says that her husband, for Christmas, bought her a new jewelry box and in switching over she came across a number of old broken pieces and things she just doesn't wear anymore. Asks me, what can she do with it? I told her that I would buy it from her. As I usually do, I separate it (10k, 14k, etc.) and calculate the price I will pay her. I asked whether she has ever sold gold before, she said no. I asked what she thought it was worth, she said she had no idea. I said just take a guess. She said $25, the husband said $75. Of course I smile when I tell her $767. The look on her face was priceless. Just think, a new jewelry box for Christmas turns into this. Great story to tell.
