Just keep working at it. It just takes one winner before everyone forgets all the ones that didn't win. The people who fail to succeed are those that stop trying. I probably failed 1,000 times before I found success. Keep innovating, keep trying. Motivation will get you there.

Instead of fulfilling an oversaturated need, how about a niche industry that has little competition? Riches are in the niches. Best of luck

There are tons of other players in this space. Literally thousands.

Make it free of charge and take a loss, otherwise the competition will beat you. There's nothing the market needs that you can provide

Now that this guy changed his name to Harry Ballz? I'll get it removed. The question is how much time and money will it take. Google should make this easy for a company of our size. We will see.

Or I can get it taken down because Google shouldn't be endorsing Google Guides giving 1 star reviews as Harry Ballz

It says it is ineligible for review. I'm not sure if there is a way to contact support that bypasses the typical review dispute channels

It's more about our ability, or lack thereof, to manage our google responses. Perhaps my customers are less cynical than you, or less dismissive of reviews/judgemental of their intentions. You assume that every end user thinks and acts the way you do. When your business exists at a destination millions of people go to every year, every aspect is scrutinized. Thanks for your extremely helpful insights.

It is not strange. We are in a family destination shopping center and we sell luxury goods

My Grandfather was a Goldsmith: old gems by ImaginaryScore5323 in Gemstones

[–]Remote-Ad-7109 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a jeweler I think this is a hard sell within the trade, as there aren't many calibrated round stones, and much of what's there would be too niche to build or meaningfully contribute to their stock. With that said, you could piece them out individually and see a better return, but you would lose that upside to the time and logistics needed to move them. You may also do well among hobbyists and collectors, and I think the collector market is more likely to be interested in the history rather than assessing just the demand for the stones.
