<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 160749, member: 36"]That reminds me of one time I went into a local thrift, now closed. Some dealer had been in and more or less cleaned out the jewelry case except for a blue glass ring. It was pretty and it fit, and I was hesitating when I felt what seemed like scratches on the side. Looked a little closer at the scratches ... Baccarat. When I bought it, their new jewelry pieces started at $250. Price for the ring? $3. It stayed on my finger except for when I needed to pay for it, and out the door it went. It went into the box with my college class ring. Oh yeah, it had a small 18k band on it too.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Always check out those scratches or little marks on a piece of glass or "silverplate".[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
