<p>[QUOTE="Marko, post: 4480632, member: 210"]What a day. It was all cloudy, supposed to rain, so I didn't get out of bed at 5 am. My bad- it was bright and sunny down the shore. Got to yard sales late, can't locate a little sterling garnet and pearl bracelet I got for a dollar (I know I should have been at that yard sale early.) Stopped at an estate sale, everything was vastly overpriced, but I decided to walk around again. Good thing I did. Then on to an outdoor barn sale, found a few things, but that's not the biggest news. I was at a booth where there was a small case of cameos, and another woman was there. I picked up one, it was cracked, picked up a GF necklace, price was $60, not worth half that, put it down, cleared my hands (I always show my hands palm up leaving, old casino dealer habit.) I am buying jewelry at another table and a woman comes up to me and says I was at her friend's both, and did I "misplace" a cameo? So she was asking me if I stole it. I was really ticked, told her no, there was another woman picking up ALL the cameos. After I paid, I went over there and showed the seller the two items I picked up and put down and said there was another woman there looking at cameos. She then proceeds to tell me it couldn't be her because she was still there looking at things. Seriously? I just walked away.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was getting dark here, so I didn't photograph everything.
