Thanks man
1. NOBODY ON EARTH IS GOING TO GIVE YOU THAT IF YOU MELT DOWN A PIECE OR CHAIN. PERIOD. why? because there are refinery fees and other things, if it's a franco or cuban, they'll pay that weight and the person selling will most likely lose unless he copped a long long time ago.
2. when any jeweler or even wholesaler buys a gold franco or cuban or gold chain, for a 14k chain, they're paying what the current gold weight is that day and then the shipping it cost to bring over from europe and then the labor it cost to make the chain and maybe a little on top. it's not a huge amount, but thats why you can't make a lot of money on just chains, it is what it is. so if a site like goldenmine.com is selling 14k for around $55 a gram, that's about right and they depend on making money off selling 100 chains a week or more.
3. people forget when it comes to something like a jesus piece, you are paying for casting and the gold labor on that, then diamond labor etc. you have no choice. If it was just that easy, how do you think any of these gold manufacturers make any money? Even LAX can't make it for less than me, it's impossible. I do 90% of everything in house at my store, unless I'm making a lot of pieces. so buying 1 at a time will guarantee ensure you will be paying more. but LAX also doesn't have much overhead.
that sale was definitely 50% off the store, just not on stamped gold jewelry, that's like having a 50% off sale on gas at the gas station. our retail prices are still lower than jacob and anything on rodeo even though we're doing outsourced work for places like chopard and Louis Vuitton and Fendi for custom 1 of 1 orders.... our jesus pieces were discounted 60% off the sticker price which was about 25% off the cash price and that's why I sold over 200 jesus pieces since december. prices change and gold has gone up over $125 since early dec.
sale is crazy, got too many emails, had over 40 cubans and now I have 7 left. stores downtown are calling us to buy from us to resell. so you know the price is good.
peace
