How many of you go to garage sales?
I used to almost everyweek end.
I was looking for old piericed ear rings.
You can find them all the time and the condition does not matter as long as the ear pins are still there BUT the ear pibs MUST be yellow. This tells you that the pins are GOLD and that is what I am looking for. The giold can be as high as 14k or as low as 8k.
If the pin is silver looking LEAVE IT ALONE.
Over the years I have collected over 500 ear rings.I clip off the pins and trash the rest. You will find that a pair of these pins will weigh about 1 gram. The most I have paid is $0.25 for a pair.
You will find most of the time a whole box of custom jewelry and you can buy the whole box for a couple of bucks BUT look first.

Very interesting. Thanks for that info.
