I have a passion for good quality jewellery and would work full time in the industry but for a health condition that forbids me doing a normal full time job. Rather than sitting around feeling sorry for myself, I have made a hobby of obtaining good quality items that may be bankrupt stock or have had their packaging damaged by fire or water. 

I might have one type of item at one time and a totally different set of items at another time. It just depends on what I have been able to obtain. I sometimes obtain stock that has been written off and the company has obtained an insurance payout for it. There may be nothing wrong with the stock at all but the company cannot sell it as they have already received compensation from their insurers.  When I obtain this sort of stock, I can offer good quality items at lower prices than they are sold for on the high street. 

Sometimes the packaging may be a little grubby or shop soiled. This occasionally happens when I obtain ex-display stock. Sometimes a company goes onto liquidation and I purchase some of the stock at a low price. If there is something not quite up to scratch with packaging or any component of the item, be assured, I will mention this on the listing. If the original packaging is missing, I will also state this.

Some of the expensive pieces of jewellery - especially rings are too valuable to send by a Royal Mail signed for service so I will send them out by Royal Mail Special Delivery. I will make it clear on the listing which method of shipping will be used.
