Hi all!

I’m still a relatively new member of this community but already I have learned so much from all of you - including the importance of bargain hunting for bling!
Well today, I was out perusing my favorite pawn shop and, being in the market for an everyday bracelet saw a bezel-set DBTY-resembling piece...

Oh, it’s Tiffany’s. It’s Elsa Peretti’s *actual* DBTY collection. And of course, it’s in platinum. That retails for $825, so this is still gonna be out of a reasonable price range for me.

Not so. It’d been there for a a month and amazingly no one jumped on it, so I picked it up for $350. :bigsmile:

I still have quite a ways to go in terms of learning how to haggle but personally I think saving nearly $500 is a good start!

Anyway, pictures included! This is my first time posting on mobile, so hopefully it works!

I think it was a great find! Given it’s Tiffany, I don’t think they would do deep discounts so the deal is good!

Wow! Well done - what a bargain!

I have this bracelet & it never leaves my wrist, but I can promise it cost WAY more than what you paid. Must remember to check out your local shop :think:

What a score on a gorgeous, wear-with-everything piece! Congrats! :appl:

My local "pawn" shops are priced like mall jewelers. It's laughable. I went in the other day to take a look around, and they had a 14K half eternity marked, with probably 2-3 pointers, at $1,399. Pass. :lol:

Oh yuck - that's not even close to worth it. It seems like the ones around where I live are really variable, depending on where you go. This was the 4th one I'd gone to (my friend and I had a post-brunch wander around) and I was so shocked I could get that much of a deal.
