A jeweler will rarely buy from an individual because, well, it’s a tough proposition when they’re offering you $1000 for a ring they are selling for $3500. Pawn shops would be the best… but again, they have to make money. You’d be surprised how many of them end up selling to jewelry stores at wholesale. Also, not sure what happened, but I once had to sell an engagement ring and it sucks!

I’m genuinely wanting to know. All I hear are assertions. Please can someone offer some information about how this business is affiliated with the church as has been alleged? I stopped attending the church for a reason. I’m not blind to the issues or wanting to defend the church. I just don’t see anyone offering anything concrete to back up their assertions.

Springfield is like the old boxes of neapolitan ice cream I got as a kid. It's got a pretty good variety for the price point and it's exciting to have options... but it's neapolitan ice cream out of a box for $3.49... you probably shouldn't be expecting gourmet ice cream of any flavor in the box but appreciate the good flavor blasts you come across in each category.

This is what I did! I feel like if you’re from a bigger city, you come to Springfield for college and don’t stay. If you’re from Springfield or a smaller surrounding town you might come and stay.

Edited: wording but I think you all got my point
