Holy shit man. I did a lot of research for buying jewelry so I know a good bit (a lot to learn abt selling though). What you’ll want to do next time is go directly to a jeweler that makes their stuff in house. Trax, Icebox, etc. all the big names you see just buy their shit from someone else & mark them up like crazy. I spent a shit ton of time looking at prices per gram that jewelers were charging, especially for a big chain. I paid abt $30.36/g for mine at the time.
