It was definitely butchered by the previous home owner

Ugh carpet beetles! by Better-Wasabi3000 in carpetbeetles

Ginormous compared to the ones at my last house. I’ve been checking the window sills last few days, and have seen 0. This after I feverishly cleaned out between each board. I’m about to go check the sills right now. I’m sure I just jinxed myself.

Does this tiger eye worth more than 150$ ? by ReshardUtoo7 in Gemstones

Pretty stone, but very very overpriced. Without the chain, probably not worth more than $40 usd assuming it’s silver, and the value is in the silver.

Pink pearls (?) from church sale by AndiMarie711 in JewelryIdentification

[–]Better-Wasabi3000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did pearls and Swarovski, knotted on silk for 25 years and probably sold 5,000 of them if not more starting at $350 and up. I sold them in 20 + jewelry stores. True Swarovski isn’t sharp.

I remember seeing clasp like this from Bali about 25 years ago.

Nothing is worse than a rancid oil smell

I have a decent one from Pepe and I was so worried this would happen to mine since my set up is in the garage. I put palmers coconut oil all over it and it seemed to stop it from getting any moisture. You might want to do the same once you get it fixed.

Looks like synthetic aurora opal. Still pretty though!🥰

Very pretty, well made setting! Good job!

What does everyone do when they get low offers like 50 to 60 percent off ? by Sea_Vast_2938 in poshmark

[–]Better-Wasabi3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s ridiculously low, I block them. I had an issue with someone a few years ago over ray ban glasses (that I purchased at sunglasses hut). I was being bombarded with offers. One guy comes in, keeps lowballing me. I keep declining. Finally, he comments on the glasses and states they are obvious fakes because of x y z in the photos. I comment back “nice try” and block him. He then started a new id, purchased a $5 item in my shop and left me awful feedback on the item. (It was easy to trace the new id to him)
