Now I'm honestly kind of curious what that "totes real gem stones" jewelry of 300 bucks looks like, lmao

I once saw someone selling mountain crystals, small pieces, for 100 bucks. So many scammers with stones. Wonder if that person is a scammer themselves, just bullshitting, or has the worst supplier ever.

it would have to be the worst supplier ever because in less than 5 min i tracked down a wholesale supplier who will give me twenty five 3mm lab-grown sapphires for £38

that's about £1.50 each. so £3 for a pair of earrings assuming you only used one in each

thing is i could make stirling-silver-and-sapphires earrings and sell them for the price of claire's costume jewellery and still be making a huge profit on it. it's just that nobody would believe it's real at that price.

#i prommy real gold and real silver in the small amounts used for jewellery? pennies also #it would cost MAYBE #MAYBE #REALLY STRETCHING IT. MAYBE.#£5 in materials to make stirling silver earrings with an actual sapphire in them #and it would still only take me about 57.2 seconds to assemble them #selling them for £7 is - for 1 minute worth of labour - still a chuckle-worthy profit #but nobody would believe it's real at £7 probably so you'd have to charge £20 to look legit #which is hilarious and also sad #so truly. if you cannot make a profit on this that is. i mean skill issue doesnt cover it does it #making a loss on it is a skill
