Dubai\n\n\nAs one of the world's fastest-growing regions, construction cranes are an omnipresent sight on the horizon, making that buzz all too literal. But word-of-mouth about the potential for doing business here is equally strong, helping to make the 10th edition of the International Jewellery Dubai (IJD) show, which started Monday and concludes on Friday, Dec. 10, double in size over last year's event.\n\nThe show includes 454 exhibitors this year, up from 225 exhibitors in 2003. A greater number of first-time international participants (including Diamond Trading Co.(DTC) sightholders from Belgium and the Far East, as well as 27 companies exhibiting in an Italian Trade Centre-sponsored Italian Pavilion) reflects the region's growing importance to the international jewelry community.\n\n"As the figures indicate, IJD has grown tremendously in stature, and while it is already the most significant show of its kind in the region, it is now set to take its place among the premier shows serving the jewelry trade on the world stage," says Christina Nicholson, general manager of exhibitions and conventions for the Dubai World Trade Centre, the organizers of the show. \n\n"With Dubai playing an increasingly important part in the worldwide gold and jewelry trade, thanks to its strategic position and strong trade ties with the region, an exhibition like International Jewellery Dubai has tremendous scope for growth," Nicholson says.\n\nThe show's expansion comes as no surprise in this city, where the most common remark focuses on the shocking degree of change that's transformed Dubai from a desert outpost into a bustling capital of commerce. It is considered the hub of the Gulf region, now the third largest diamond market in the world, after the United States and Japan, according to DTC figures.

The best sale I saw was on some 14k gold, sapphire & diamond earrings.  They were 75% off, then the store gave you this candy bar that you took the wrapping off and got another percentage off, plus I had gotten a discount coupon in the mail & then because I used my store credit card I got even more off.  By the time I got done with all the discounts & coupons I ended up paying just over $30 + tax for these earrings that cost a bloody fortune!\n\nI've come acrossed other deals and sales but nothing beats the deal I got on those earrings and I still have them today (many, many years later)!

Jewelry is a very competitive arena in eBay. You need to have an established reputation in the community, great closeup photos, certificate of authenticities, etc. You have to understand that ebay is not a sure thing -- just look at the number of listings that end without a single bid and you will see that ebay can become very expensive (you keep on paying ebay listing fees but you may not sell anything).\n\nOne way to succeed on eBay is to know what the HOT products are. eBay has several ways for you to determine exactly what the hot items to sell on their marketplace: \n\nItems In Demand = the most popular items currently within that particular category. To see the In Demand page, go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/sellbycategory.html  \n\nHot Items by Category Report = a monthly report that lists the fastest growing categories on eBay for the previous month. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/whatshot.html and select "Hot Items by Category" from the menu on the left. \n\neBay Pulse = "a daily snapshot of current trends, hot picks, and cool stuff on eBay". Go to http://pulse.ebay.com/ to see eBay Pulse in action. \n\nMerchandising Calendar = eBay promotes specific categories on its home page each month. Savvy eBayers know that this home page exposure results in more interest in such categories. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/calendar.html  to view the current Merchandising Calendar.

Depends. Silverware isn't terribly uncommon, even from the 19th century, thus it isn't always worth very much. However, if you research the type you have on the internet and it turns out to be rare and perhaps worth something, an auction is the best bet--those, too, you can research on the internet to find out where local venues are and how to be a part. If they do turn out to be common, a large "commons" type antique shop may be the best bet. Collectors love to browse and you may turn out having something someone has been looking for. And, of course, there's always eBay.

You can actually try the clearance section at any jewelry store I got a $5000 for about $1500 at Gordon's. It was on clearance and on sale it was a great deal. Good Luck with your marriage.

Jeanne's Rock & Jewelry in the Bellaire Triangle (the Bissonnet side) is one of my favorites. They're very knowledgable and friendly. 713-664-2988\n\nCollector's Choice is another one I've heard of but have never visited, as well as The Crystal Store off of Ashcroft.\n\nIf you're in ever in Kemah, there are at least two good ones there you might want to try.\n\nYou might also contact the Houston Gem & Mineral Society and see if they have sponsors or members who can help.
