Are alloys worthless? Jewelry worth thousands of dollars is often discounted by 10%. The profit is unprecedented.

2024-05-30

Everyone has different feelings about jewelry. Some people buy a favorite piece of jewelry for themselves regularly every year, while others can't move their legs when they see these shiny jewelry, as if they would suffer a great loss if they don't buy it. Especially at the corners of some shopping malls, it seems that jewelry is discounted all year round, and it is discounted at any time. Why is it so crazy?

Many people ask if alloys are worthless, of course. Alloys are synthesized by two metal components or metal and non-metal components, generally 70% to 80% copper, and then other metal components are added, which can be gold, silver, or other cheap metals. Regardless of what components are added, the value of the alloy will not be too high, and it is a worthless jewelry.

How did I discover this secret? It still starts with my mother who loves to be greedy for small bargains. Like all middle-aged women, my mother is old but her heart is not old, and she loves beauty more than I did before. I can't help but buy all kinds of shiny jewelry and new clothes. At the corner of the mall, there is a counter that does activities all year round. Not only can you draw prizes, but you can also always draw first prizes.

I believe many friends have had this experience, that is, after you shop in the supermarket, you will be given a small receipt, and then you can draw prizes with the small receipt. The probability of winning the first prize is really very high, almost nine out of ten times it is the first prize. Then the lady at the counter began to praise how lucky you are, this first prize can be used to buy our jewelry with a 10% discount, and the jewelry that can be discounted will be in a corner, and the same style is also on sale on the counter, and the price of the same style is several thousand yuan, while the activity style in the corner is only a few hundred yuan.

I believe that in such a situation, nine out of ten middle-aged women will be fooled. Such a good thing actually let themselves encounter it, then wouldn¡¯t it be a fool to miss it? In a shopping trip that I didn¡¯t accompany and remind, my mother happily spent less than 300 yuan on her first prize to buy a necklace. The bright appearance looked quite exquisite, but after a while of happiness, she found that something was wrong.

Because my mother's skin is sensitive, if it is not a pure gold accessory, it is easy to get red and swollen. After wearing this necklace for three or five days, my neck felt itchy, but I still couldn't bear to take it off. After about a month, coupled with the hot summer, the necklace soon had a layer of black feeling. How could it look like a necklace worth thousands of dollars? It was clearly not as good as a silver chain.

Later, we confidently studied the material of the necklace, and found that it was an alloy component. At this time, I felt very depressed. It was clearly said to be a discounted product, but it was given an alloy. But because it was clearly written on the product card, I couldn't find the problem with the seller. Then I went back to the mall and took a closer look at the same necklace I bought at the original price, but the composition of that necklace was written as K gold, and I instantly understood the root of the problem.

Although they are the same style, the materials used are different. One is alloy and the other is K gold, and the price and cost are too different. So if you are buying jewelry, you must not be greedy for small bargains. Remember that you get what you pay for. It is always right. In short, the price of alloy is relatively low and it is not worth the money.
