Diamond Earrings Giveaway

The holidays are coming, and money is tight for everyone.  Well, let me tell you how I earned a fast $2,500 (yes, you heard that right) to pay for our holiday (and then some).  What I did was a sold a bunch of old gold jewelry.  I had a lot of stuff sitting around that I never wore.  Things from ex-boyfriends, ex-husband, broken, out of style, just plain ugly, and, well, you get the picture.

You've all seen those commercials on TV about selling your gold, but honestly, I never trusted any of those people.  No way was I going to send my stuff away in an envelope somewhere.  However, there's a little known secret here in Akron, Ohio called Brilliance.  What are they?  They are a wholesale jeweler.  They don't have a regular store front, so they don't have the overhead that most jewelers have.  They have a discreet office location, where you can sit down, one-on-one with a jewelry expert, and discuss your needs.  There's no pressure to buy anything, and if they don't have what you like, they will make it for you.

So basically, my friend and cohort, Stacey (yes, the other one), told me to call Brilliance and make an appointment.  So, I gathered all of the old stuff I had, and called.  I went to their office thinking that if I walked away with $300 or $400, I would be more than thrilled.  Well, let me tell you, I walked away with $2,500 in cash.  So I bought myself a custom made ring, and used the rest of the money to cover all of our holiday expenses.  No going into debt!!!  Brilliance custom made me a gorgeous ring that I had been wanting to get, but wasn't going to spend any new money to buy it.

So now I have my beautiful ring, and all of my holidays paid for.  If you have a lot of junky gold jewelry sitting around that you don't wear, I would highly recommend giving them a call at (330) 867-1545 OR 330-730-7600.  They are honest, and again, because they are wholesalers (as opposed to retailers), their pricing structures are very different, and they will work with you to make sure you stay within your budget.  They will also take your gold on trade if you want to purchase something else.

Brilliance has generously offered to give one of my readers a pair of diamond earrings (1/2 carat total weight).
