Good morning frens, I wouldn't normally post such a modest haul of cheapies but apparently this sterling bracelet is a valuable discontinued designer piece. Yesterday at goodwill I picked up 602g of pewter to be accessioned into the hoard for $3.18 total (about $13 melt value), and cherrypicked this 14.4g sterling bracelet from their batch of costume junk for $4.24 ($10.50 melt). A fair yet unremarkable price for scrap, but I looked it up and it's a retired design by "James Avery Artisan Jewelry" which sellers are asking quite a lot for. Most are around $250 and the cheapest offering I saw was this, at $199.99 OBO + shipping:

I figure I can undercut the competition and still get 10-15X melt so chucking it in the next batch of refinery scrap is clearly unwise. Keep your eyes open and good luck letting your cheapies pay for themselves anons!
