It's awfully quiet out there today....you must have all had a good weekend,
like I did....raised my jeweling skill from 22 to 38 over the past
week....any other success stories? Is that a normal rate?

Working with jade and pearl now....the pearl rings are a hard sell...even
at 12pp each..

i noticed a lot of jewelers selling their wares for a lower cost then
mine...seems like I'm getting cut....I've been selling for about twice the
cost of materials...seems like a fair rule for prices (considering all the
factors and costs involved in getting skill high enough to even work with
the better stones)....but I saw a few people selling jade rings for
6pp???!!!! Ouch! 10pp is what I've been selling them for.....and until
someone auctions a lower price, I had no problem getting that price. It
pains me greatly to see it happen...so I politely ask the vendors to raise
the selling price a little....

Any thoughts?
