Not Sure If Rant Or Advice
If it is advice, it may not be good advice. The jury is still out. The reason it may not be good advice is because USPS adjustments probably count against you on a seller dashboard/scorecard, in the same way that seller-initiated cancelations do. I get anywhere from 1 to 5 postage adjustments on my ledger per show, and my seller metrics/score/standings don't seem to be negatively inpacted--yet? Anyway, this new bill back policy is probably affecting me to the tune of $200-300 per month. That's pretty gnarly. I'm probably catching a charge on something that is 6oz on the label but 8oz in the box. I wonder if it published material, showing how much it has to be over to bill it back to us. I doubt it. Aren't we always at the mercy of the post office? Don't get me started on the number of underweight boxes I ship. Probably 5x the number that are overweight. Do I get money back? No, the post office keeps that money, while they continue to raise rates like clockwork. I don't like clocks or watches. 😅😅 I welcome anyone to chime in on the subject, until then, here's the rant.

Before this I was a rural letter carrier for USPS for 13 years. They cut my salary by $30k and added an extra day to my route. They are shoving out all the good guys so they can hire cheaper help at a lower tier. I don’t see USPS making it another five years to be honest.
Jewelry Trays
Hey guys, I’m curious what your favorite most cost affective jewelry trays have been? I’m not a fan of the velvet ones they catch and hold on to every pet hair within a mile radius.
SCORE
My first auction that I bid on when I decided to start selling vintage jewelry I scored this. I found it tangled into a big ball of jewelry in a lot that was auctioned as “broken/tangled/junk”. It’s 16 grams of 14kt gold! It’s a 25” Add-a-bead necklace. I paid $12 for the lot. I’ve held on to it for quite some time now but I’d like to get it sold soon. My heart can’t handle scraping it as it’s a gorgeous piece! I got it out earlier and started cleaning it up and thought I should share this treasure with y’all!

@Bradley Johns where would be the best places to scrap it? I’ve never scrapped gold or silver.

The only reason I had bought the tangled lot in the first place is because I saw some west German necklaces mixed up in it. I had no idea this beauty was inside! The auctioneer didn’t allow viewing of the jewelry beforehand and I’m glad lol
