Tips On Where To Sell Jewelry – What To Avoid and Where To Go
Financial problems occur to every person these days. Everyone is trying to make ends meet – pay the bills, buy food, be updated with the rent or monthly mortgage – money is simply a need by all people. So in order to have the cash that you require, you are pushed to sell jewelry; the unwanted, mismatched or broken ones. You have a lot of options as to where you can dispose of your property but here are some tips to remind you how to sell it, where you can get the most from it and how to stay away from wrong buyers:
1. Gold Parties
Have you heard how these gold parties happen? It is like a Tupperware party with food and items for sale. Someone will stand as the host of the party. Someone will sell the Tupperware products for him or her. As a guest, you will leave the party with a bought Tupperware item, right? In this case, you do not leave with a plastic plate or bowl. You leave with money and someone will give that to you in exchange for your gold. That is how you sell jewelry in gold parties.
A friend can be a host to this party and he or she will invite neighbors to go to his or her home and an agent is there to take a look at your gold. After the valuation, the agent will tell you how much it is worth and if you are satisfied with the amount, he or she will give you a check for it. You are happy. The agent is happy. Your host/friend is more than ecstatic because with that sale, he or she has a certain commission.
What will the agent do with the gold he or she got from you? Of course, sell it to the highest bidder. Everyone gets what they want.
2. Pawnshops or Jewelry Stores
This is the most common way to sell jewelry. You go to a reputable store or pawnshop bringing with you the item or items you want to dispose of. They will weigh it in and come back to you with a number – a valuation of how much your jewelry is worth. If you accept, then, they will facilitate the trade. You will be signing various papers and then get your money. These institutions are legal and safe.
The owners of the stores or pawnshops are happy. You are happy. Everyone gets what they want – yet again. But are you sure of that? You might be getting what you want, or think that you want but, are you getting what you deserve?
The Sad Fact
Yes, you are getting money from your unwanted jewelry. But you are NOT getting the money you deserve for it. Gold parties, pawnshops and jewelry stores also sell the gold and they receive more. They are just “middle men” and not the “real” buyer. With that, they have profited a lot from you than you have ever had for yourself and you own the gold!
Who Buys it?
Sell jewelry online. Companies whose main business is buying gold can offer three to five times more in terms of amount and you can go straight to them. Get rid for the “middle men” and maximize your share. If an agent from a gold party will give you $100 – and online buyer can pay you $500 for the same item! Check the internet for reputable jewelry buyers and sell jewelry to them only.

College Packing List and Moving Guide from Student Moving Expert
We have created the definitive (well, just about) go-to guide all students should consider checking out before move-in day.
Below you will find everything from packing guidelines, to college checklist advice, to what procedures you should be aware of on your campus.
Ready to Pack?! Know the Facts.
Most every school has their on-campus housing policies online and in their student handbook.
It’s important to check this out because some schools have different policies on appliances you can bring, how you can decorate your room, and many other rules and regulations specific to your first year on campus.
It also lets you know what appliances and furniture are already provided in your room so you can better prepare for packing.
It lets you know who your resident assistants (RA’s) are so you can reach out to them with housing or roommate questions.
Know Your Neighbor
Make sure to use Facebook to search out your soon to be campus friends and roommates and find out who is living in your residence hall. Also, see if you know anyone from growing up that lives around campus and might be fun to catch up with when you arrive. Meeting and hanging out with new people on the first day is the best way to get adjusted right away and begin the school year right.
It also couldn’t hurt to call your roommate(s), introduce yourself, and get to know each other a bit so it won’t be as awkward on the first day.
When speaking with your roommate(s) plan out who is going to bring the TV, DVD player, Xbox, Wii, mini-fridge, microwave, food and drinks, etc.
Make sure to decide who’s taking which bed so there aren’t any surprises when you get to campus. Nothing worse then starting the school year off with an angry roommate.
One Last Pre-Packing Advice Tip
Getting ready to pack brings you that much closer to living on your own, but hold up first. Here are some things you should figure out with your parents before you seal the boxes and bags:
Health insurance. Most schools require that you have medical insurance. Before you arrive on campus, make sure you’re covered under your parents’ policy (verify out-of-state coverage if you’re moving out of state to go to school), or else see if you can purchase insurance through your school.
It is very important to be covered, as you will most likely get sick in the first few months of school as the fall season changes. Make copies of your insurance cards, have your home physician’s info in your phone or laptop, and find a physician in the city where you’re moving to.
Renters insurance. If you live on or off campus someone can still break into your room or a water or gas pipe can burst. Your school is most likely not liable. Look into a renter insurance policy, which can be as little as $10 a month for several thousand dollars worth of coverage.
Cell phone. If school has taken you out of state, make sure your calling plan doesn’t get you with long-distance or roaming charges. If it does, either switch to a plan with unlimited roaming and long-distance, or find a different provider. If you stay in touch by text and e-mail a lot from your phone, consider getting a plan with unlimited texting and Internet, if your current plan doesn’t already have this.
Money. Oh yeah, you are going to need this to survive. If your bank is a national chain, find a branch and at least three ATMs close to campus so you can get the cash you need right away, without having to pay crazy ATM fees (they add up). If your home bank is only local, consider getting a different bank close to campus that you can keep at least a checking account at while you’re in school.
Valuables. Label all your electronics and other valuables with your name and hometown (avoid including personal info like your driver’s license number, home address, or Social Security number that identity thieves could use). You can use a permanent marker, an engraver, or find tamper-resistant asset tags online. Store a record of all your tagged items, along with a picture, in a safe place, for insurance purposes, in case anything gets stolen.
What to Leave in the Nest
Candles and incense. Many schools don’t allow these amazing olfactory eliminators since they’re considered fire hazards. Consider bringing other forms of scent enhancers that do not require fire.
Halogen lamps. Halogens can sometimes be as dangerous as open candle flames. They emit high-level heat that, when left unattended around curtains or flammable objects, can ignite and do major damage.
Illegal stuff. Take a wild guess what we might mean here:
Drugs, alcohol, gun, knives, ninja throwing stars, and any other weapon meant to bring about injury, death, or destruction. Sounds pretty dark, but we want you and your fellow campus residents to be safe and away from potential legal trouble.

Packing Time! Situation #1
If you’ve never moved onto campus before, get ready for a comical and chaotic scene. Typically there are anywhere from 800 to 6,000 freshman and their families moving to school all on one day and all at once!
Some bring trucks, vans, caravans, and trailers. Some pack the little car to the brim, others pack the SUV to the limit and the roof.
Next they have to find a parking spot and slowly unpack the moving vehicle and walk across to the campus residence hall. There you sign paperwork out, get your keys, and possibly get a hand from a football player, welcome back crew member, or residential life staff member.
2 to 3 awkward hours later, you’ve climbed your last crowded hallway, staircase, elevator. You’ve moved your last muscle on that box or bag. And you still have not totally unpacked.
Another 2 hours go by. Finally, you’ve hung the last hanger, folded the last shirt, and organized the last desk item. Now what? Off to have fun!? Not yet.
The next phase is the trip to the campus bookstore and/or the off campus target or Wal-Mart, bed, bath, and beyond. And good thing for you and your family you are not the only ones with this idea. You spend another 1 to 2 hours getting all your books, last minute items you forgot about, and you then go back to campus, struggle to find a parking spot, and make one last trip from the vehicle to your room.
Now it is time to either have one last meal with the family or part ways and begin your new journey at college.
Here is a last minute reminder: make sure you’re fully packed the night before you leave. Double-check again in the morning to make sure you have everything. Add any last minute items that you forgot. Once you leave the nest, you want to make sure you take enough resources to survive on your own.
Packing Time! Situation # 2
We would like the student or parent reading our definitive go-to college packing list and moving guide to consider another way to start the school year off.
Instead of packing the car to the brim or renting a van, U-Haul or trailer, why not send a student’s belongings to their residence room ahead of time.
Ship2School is just one of several student moving services that will move students into any school on and before move-in day.
A student moving service will often send a fully supplied, free box kit to a student’s home. In the box kit there are usually items such as bubble wrap, tape with dispensers, a magic marker, and 5 to 10 extra strength double wall boxes.
A student packs up their belongings and schedules a pick up with the student moving service and the next time they see their belongings they are waiting for them on campus ahead of time or delivered right to their dorm room on move in day with the upgraded in room delivery feature.
If a school has an agreement with the student moving service, a student’s belongings will be waiting in their room ahead of time at no extra charge!
When weighing the emotional and financial costs of moving to college yourself or hiring someone else to do it, remember that it is not as easy as one might think.
For example, if a family has to rent a van, trailer, or U-Haul for a cross-country trip, that alone could be the same cost as using a move-in service. Even if they ride in their own car, the gas and hotels alone could equal the service. The same goes for the same family that decides to take a plane and check the student’s 5-6 bags or luggage (100 to 400 dollars).
Another example is a parent(s) that takes a day off work to move their child in, and decides to then stay the night in a hotel after the exhaustive all day move. That alone would equal the cost of sending their child’s belongings ahead of time.
One last example is a family that actually finds a cost effective way to move their child into college on move-in day. Hats off to them! They humped, schlepped, lugged each box, bag, and item from the car and into the room and did it with no help and no rental cars. And right after the move-in the parents are hitting the road and going back home. The mental, physical, and emotional energy that just happened on that last day of the family being together and the first day of the student’s new life can’t be good as a remembrance of a monumental day.
The point we are making is that moving to college is something we all have to do if we want to go to college. However, it can be done a variety of ways. We hope this go-to college moving guide helps you make a decision on what to pack, what to leave behind, and how to get prepared for school ahead of time, and how to make the best use of move-in day, whether you move yourself or have a student shipping service such as Ship2School move you to college.
Bonus: Top 10 Suggestions for “Move-In” Day:
1. Measure your room layout ahead of time. We always find a good deal of disappointed students who can’t fit their couch into their room.
2. Hang a dry erase board on the exterior of your door so that friends can leave you messages when you are not around.
3. Call your roommate prior to Move-In Day so that you can introduce yourselves and decide who is bringing the TV, DVD player, stereo, Xbox, PlayStation, Wii, food and drinks, fridge, etc.
4. Bring posters. Add your “32 Pieces” of flair to your walls.
5. Bring flip-flops or shower shoes for trips to the bathroom. You never know.
6. Don’t use nails or screws when hanging up items. You’ll pay dearly for these marks on move-out day.
7. Ask your parents to send care-packages and gift baskets to you. There’s nothing like a treat from home in the middle of the semester to boost your mid-term jitters.
8. Bring food, drinks, and snacks. You might not leave the campus ranch and make it to the grocery store right away. Stock up in advance.
9. Bring a hand-truck with wheels especially if you live on the 2nd or 3rd floor. This will greatly ease your move-in process. Of course if you use a student shipping service, you can avoid this step all together.
10. Enjoy the first day, and get to know your hall-mates. You’ll spend a lot of time in your dorm and residence hall. Be social and start the year right!
Remember; EVERYONE is THROWN in this for the first time. Don’t be shy. Say hi to everyone on the first day. It’s gonna be a fun ride!

May Your Days Be Frugal And Bright
Hello fellow citizens of the sub-prime mortgage society. If you are swimming in an aromatic bath of equity, investments, and liquid assets, please read no further. If you are not, I encourage you to try these holiday dollar stretchers, which are the result of my brainstorming for my own newly single-income household. Fight the power of your oh-so-easy-to-swipe Citibank Visa, and try an Xmas that is heavy on the joy and low on excess.
- Small is the new big. Get a small Christmas tree, those little ones available in nurseries and even drugstores. Prop it up on a table, throw grandma’s nativity scene beside it (or a few stuffed snowmen from the bottom of your child’s toy chest, if you are looking for a secular vibe), and make it a festive, but little, focal point of the room. Little children will be sold on this, especially if they watch Charlie Brown. Mine are always asking for the little tree. A small tree is not only cheaper, but is easier to decorate since you need fewer ornaments. This is especially important if you fall victim to the decorating trends imposed on you by magazine editors, who clearly convey that the blue balls of yesteryear are out, and that silver bells are the new now. You can swap them out without going broke, and your husband will appreciate the change in metaphor. (Confession: We bought a big tree this year.)
- Make paper chains and snowflakes. I’m not kidding. What better way is there to remember the joy of first grade? Use red and green construction paper or other colors to complement your décor. This will keep the kids busy for hours, and is an inexpensive and festive alternative to garland. Snowflakes can be made from ordinary white paper, and can be taped to the windows or hung on strings from the ceiling. You don’t need to bury your home in paper crafts. Place them in prominent areas (around a doorway, mirror, window, buffet) and they will make an impact. Use recycled paper if you want to impress your progressive friends.
- Employ the Scrooge Rule. Agree with friends and relatives in advance to not exchange gifts or to have a gift exchange. Call it the Scrooge Rule so they think it’s a trendy recession move. If you are uncomfortable with that name, call it the Bob Cratchit Rule. He was nice, but broke.
- Play the Green card. Justify to yourself and anyone else that the overloading of closets with underused Christmas toys and gifts is ecologically unsound. Give edible gifts, and know that they can be happily excreted. Above all, convince society that Christmas, as we know it, is not green.
- Have a potluck. If you must have Christmas party, promise to get everyone drunk, and ask them to kindly bring an appetizer to share. If you can’t bear the idea of a potluck, have a party with appetizers only and avoid lunch and dinner hours. Call it an open house, and greet them with some well-priced bubbly and snacks from, say, Trader Joe’s.
- Know that you will fail your children. No matter how much you give them, they will inevitably want more. Remember Veruca Salt? Make peace with this. You will tell them how lucky they are, how they have so much more than most people across the globe, and then their eyes will glaze over as they wait for you to finish so they can ask you for the $50 Baby Alive that eats and takes gelatin dumps. Don’t get this, especially if you have a cat that is already urinating on every blanket in your home.
- Avoid commercials. Watch PBS. It’s civilized, intellectual, and commercial-free. Nothing makes my kids want more than a Saturday morning Nickelodeon marathon. Imagine the team of well-dressed people with masters’ degrees that are on the production end of these commercials, machinating over jingles and set designs that will teach your children to want.
- Fleece your family and friends. Go to the fabric store and check out the bolts of fleece. The colors and designs range from whimsical to sporty to, yes, tasteful. Cut strips and make some scarves. Fleece is warm, and the splash of color will dress up any outfit. And you can let them have Spongebob! Or John Deere. Or plaid. Since the edges don’t fray, no sewing is necessary.
- Double dip with clothing. Kids always need clothing. Give them that as presents. This is an easier sell with girls than boys, but everyone, even little ones, feel fabulous with a new, comfortable outfit.
- Resist the PotteryBarnization of your family. That is, resist the urge to dress everyone in matching formal Christmas outfits. Why does the birth of Jesus compel dads to dress like their daughters? And you don’t need formalwear if on Christmas you ride 2 hours in the car to Lodi to have $6.99 a plate Super Buffet with your aunt Cathy. And don’t talk to me about the family photo. Years from now, you won’t even remember the adorable Rudolph outfit with matching North Pole accessories for which you shelled out $80. (Hi, Gymboree.) Buy clothes they can wear in February, too. Rudolph is for rich people. Let them have him.
- Fight Christmas card oppression. Everyone is sick of these. The overproduced family photo is becoming the yawner of the season. People are now jonesing for the pretty artwork with sparkling glitter. When did our families become more beautiful than Currier & Ives? You can always pop in a photo. If the photo was taken at home with your camera and reproduced at Costco, you will be all right, and your friends, if they are true, will call you again.
- Make a joyful noise. Is this too obvious? Watch some Christmas classics as a family. Read some stories. Make a gingerbread house together. Play Bing Crosby. Decorate the tree while sipping hot chocolate. Make Christmas about more than just stuff; your kids will remember this. Stuff has to be organized; your kids will not do this.
Fight the power, good people. Leave the plastic in your wallet or, better, your garbage can, and may all your Christmases be in the black.

For that Unique Style Choose Vintage Shirts
Isn’t it mesmerizing to see men in vintage shirts? The rock n roll era has long been gone but a lot of people are still suffering a tremendous hang-over from the 70’s glitz and glam. The shiny shirts, tye-dyed shirts, rainbow, hippie, afro hairstyles and the billowing pants – how can anyone forget about it? It was one of the best times in American history, a defining glory for Americans for bringing rock n roll to the world.
If you want to make a trip down to memory lane and have a blast in the past, then simply buy any vintage shirts and turn on the music “staying alive” and dance your heart away! Imagine you are John Travolta with his groovy shirts in Saturday Night Fever. Or how about just listening to the songs of the Beatles? It seems like the 70’s rock n roll will be “staying alive” for a long time, perhaps even to the next century.
The timeless fashion of vintage glam is constantly being relived in weddings, parties, stag nights and fashion shows. The vintage fever in the new generation is not only affecting women of today’s fashion, but it has also taken over men who want to release and define their own fashion statement. Whether or not these men are just trying to be distinctive by wearing vintage shirts of funky style in the 70’s, or perhaps vintage wool Pendleton in the 60’s, or the infamous lounge shirts of the 50’s – it does evoke a misture of emotions and memories of the yesteryears genre. It could also be that men just want to pay tribute to the icons of the past like Elvis Presley who was one of the pioneers of revolutionizing the music in the 50’s. Most fashion designers of the 21st century are borrowing from the classic style from the past. Retro has become so popular that almost every clothes and accessories you can find in the malls have a hue of vintage influence. Vintage shirts, pants and accessories for men are also available in almost all vintage stores online and even in the local area. The business for vintage clothing is booming especially now that more people are getting into the hype of collecting items from the past like bags, shoes, hats, and shirts. People tend to buy these as as a constant reminder of the glorious bygone years.
Vintage can actually be versatile as there are numerous trends to choose from the decades past. While some men’s designers revamp the look, there are also genuine pieces to be had. You can find authentic vintage shirts in the vintage stores, or you could just make a small trip to your dad’s attic. For sure you will find a few items of vintage polo shirts that will remind you of Bing Crosby in the greens, or denim tight pants, and even oversized sunglasses. These are just but a few of the vintage look that are making a comeback. Enjoy it while you can and don’t miss out on the vintage fever!

What To Do in Blue Ridge, Georgia
While a metropolitan city like Atlanta has much to offer in the way of cosmopolitan pleasures, it can be a bit more difficult to track down the simpler things in life. Blue Ridge, Georgia is located in Fannin County and offers enough quaint experiences for a lifetime, only about 90 minutes outside of Atlanta.
Home to stunning natural attractions like waterfalls and breathtaking mountain views, the Blue Ridge area is accustomed to receiving city dwellers and welcomes them nicely.
For those interested in exerting energy, there are horseback riding trails, whitewater rafting opportunities and endless hiking options. For those looking to step back in time though, to enjoy homegrown delights and appreciate handmade crafts, the Blue Ridge Mountain area really shines.
To start the trip off right, consider staying in one of the many North Georgia cabin rentals available. More personal and comfortable than a small hotel, most Blue Ridge Mountain Top vacation rentals feature pleasant decks to encourage enjoying the wilderness and bubbling hot tubs to assist with unwinding. Luxurious linens and a stocked kitchen make holing up in a Blue Ridge Mountain North Georgia cabin a possibility… but there’s too much to see to do that!
Many of the cabin rentals in North Georgia will place you close enough to enjoy all that Blue Ridge Mountain has to offer. After a good night’s sleep and relaxing morning jacuzzi soak, shut the doors to the those Blue Ridge Mountain cabins and head to Main Street.
Check out The Art Center, located in the historic courthouse of Blue Ridge Mountain North Georgia, where crafts, pottery and paintings from local artists abound. For a further taste of the local artistic flavor, continue to the Blue Ridge Outfitter Mountain Mall to see locally handcrafted furniture, various arts and crafts, and the work of local artists in their individual booths. Continuing down Main St, prepare to see several quilting shops (consider enjoying a quilting class if time allows), as well as an antique store and art galleries. Almost all localized, the flavor of Blue Ridge Mountain North Georgia is evident in the quaint boutiques and their wares.
Don’t miss out of the amazing Hampton Square gallery featuring hand blown glass from over 75 highly respected local, national and international glass artists. This unique shop, not far from most Blue Ridge Mountain cabins, sparkles and glistens from all the delicate hand blown glass works of art. In a much sturdier vein, pay a visit to a local blacksmith gallery to take a peek at contemporary and traditional hand-forged ironwork.
After working up an appetite, refrain from heading back to one of the Blue Ridge Mountain Top vacation rentals and make a beeline for Mercer Orchards. Choose from among 20 different apple varieties, or locally grown peaches, cherries or blueberries, depending what’s in season. Their bakery is stocked with homemade pies, breads, fritters, jams and jellies- don’t forget to stock up and bring a bit of Blue Ridge Mountain North Georgia home! For something more substantial, a cafe inside the orchard offers regional food specialties, the ideal place to enjoy some Georgia grits.
This seemingly sleepy mountain town is home to many quaint delights, and is just the right cure for city-dwellers tired of city life.

Counter top glass water filters are attractive as well as effective
Water is an important nutrient for the body. Clean and pure drinking water is extremely necessary for a healthy body and life. It is very important to consume water that is rich in minerals and free from any harmful contaminants. Rarely do we get water from any source which is pure and clean. Most sources have been affected and clean water is a rarity. The tap water that is provided though purified contains certain contaminants like chlorine, fluoride, etc which are not necessary for your body. Filtering systems are a necessity at home to ensure clean water for your daily drinking and cooking needs. The countertop glass water filters are attractive, economical and effective water filtering systems that you can install at home.
Countertop water filters may be with changeable cartridges or otherwise. The interchangeable cartridges have a life span of about six months to one year. They are easy to install and remove. You can buy compatible ones for your filter system. The filters which do not require change of cartridge have life of around 1 year to 3 years. The functioning of each is equally effective with the only difference being in the interchangeable ones you can upgrade to the latest model easily. The counter top water filters may be of different types like faucet mount, pitchers, coolers, undersink mount, etc. You may find some manufacturers offering models with metallic housing, plastic or glass housing. With a glass water filter you can easily monitor the water filter cartridge. It looks attractive as well.
Counter top water filters are necessary in your homes as they effectively screen water for heavy metals and minerals like lead or asbestos. However, they do not soften the hard or mineralized water. The required minerals like calcium, magnesium and potassium are retained in water. There are stage carbon media filters also which can be useful to screen compounds like chlorine and hydrocarbon compounds. They are designed to provide adequate protection against viruses, bacteria like e.coli, salmonella, cysts, etc. The countertop glass water filters are designed to reduce the cloudiness caused due to the microscopic sediments in water. Most filters remove chlorine that is present in the municipal water supplied to your homes. The filters may have an ion exchange process which ensures that required minerals in your drinking water are retained. The filters are efficient in removing synthetic chemicals like herbicides, pesticides and solvents. Some brands like Aquasana AQ-4000 even have the capability to remove crypotsporidum and guardia, common chlorine resistant microscopic organisms. Fine 0.5 micron mechanical filters are mostly used for the purpose.
Among the popular brands of counter top water filters are Aquasana, Kenmore, Oreck, Brita, GE, Multi-Pure’s Aqua Dome, etc. Most manufacturers provide several types of filters with a wide range of features.
