It was amazing, absolutely perfect. And 125 dollars.
I almost had a heart attack. I considered grabbing it and running out the door, but I didn't want to end up as a pathetic headline in the local paper the next day.
The clerk went on to joke about how her boss was crazy, there was no way it was worth so much money, and who would want such a gaudy, ugly necklace anyways?
ME. I wanted it horribly. But there was no way I was paying that much for something from a thrift store that was currently running a '99 cents for all clothing' promotion.
Leaving without it, I did some research, and discovered it was made by Eisenberg Jewelry in the 70s, and it was indeed worth at least 200 bucks.
But really, who is going to wander in there and know that?!
