[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 243058, member: 51"]Thanks, Jackolin! Also appreciate all comments here. Yes, AJ I had to laugh at that disclaimer on the Ebay auction --good grief. Not sure that would hold up in "Ebay court", but I'm sure that seller looses sales with that kind of wording. Thanks for the info on the makers, etc. My piece has a fairly thin band, not tremendously heavy at 17 grams, maybe $50 on a good day. But it was a lucky find for more reason than one. Was at a thrift that never has any kind of interesting jewelry anymore. They "send it out" and all you ever see is brand new Chinese stuff, completely depressing. Last week there was a new tangle of stuff on a display, lots of hanging pieces, hard to even see what is there, and I see what looks like some interesting items, and right off find this bracelet ($1.99). As soon as I saw a signed NA bracelet --good grief, even has the word "Navajo"... I'm thinking that the person who put this out could easily have missed other items, and more importantly, I am the first jewelry buyer to see this group. None of my competitors would have missed that bracelet with such a clear mark. So I examine the group with complete attention, DID find other items, and they are interesting for a reason. They are newer pieces, maybe even less than 20 years old, but have amazingly good resale. Plan to post on another thread.[/QUOTE]
