I'll take those mistakes any old time! </p><p><br /></p><p>Last week I looked a nice sterling necklace, but knew I couldn't make enough on it to really make it worth my time. The maker (Parker) made nice stuff but not for on-line. "Sold" it to a lady who came in right after me, who'd just had her cataracts fixed and all of a sudden wanted some sparklies. The same necklace in a local estate case would have been $50. She got it for $20.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
