Bubbling with joy

$14

I was bubbling with joy when I arrived at the local gold and silver shoppe yesterday. They we're putting up a new bid board and I was the first one there to witness it.

A bid board has multiple items on it and you can bid on the items. The best thing about this bid board is if you pay $3 over the current bid, you get to take it home.

$11

All the items I purchased we're scheduled to close March 17, but I couldn't wait that long to see if I would win them. So I paid the extra $3 each so they could be mine.

The first piece I noticed was the Noah's Ark piece. Made in Thailand and marked .925 Sterling Silver.

The second piece I bought was the enameled pin, marked Siam Sterling.

$15

The third piece I purchased was this cocaine holder. A little Hansel & Gretel house that opens up. Marked .925 Sterling.

The prices I posted are with the $3 added to each. I wouldn't make any of these beautiful pieces for those prices. Too much work involved.

The best part about this bid board is you can add $3 to the current bid, and buy it now. I didn't want to take the chance of losing them to save $2 each. 😘
