taunyaarmstrong @carolsilvers Hi! Yes, it is, bought it because I could not pass it up. It's never been worn, another one, & the stone is HUGE!! Yet another you've eyes which I was not sure about selling!!! If it were not for a tragedy which happened, I would not be selling, but the situation is forcing me to sell things for the finances which I normally wouldn't. You would LOVE it! I have a pretty good idea of what you like!!!! 🌷

tub Sweetie, what kind of a bundle deal would you give me for this and the Julianne butterfly pin/pendant? Thanks!
May 27Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong 😻@tub Let me look up on my inventory sheet. I base it on what I pay for each piece, as it's a business & how I get my family by. I pay a lot for my jewelry & don't do the big mark ups, (I had no idea this is how the site was until after I'd set it all up), so I don't make much, especially after Posh takes their huge chunk. So I'll look at what I paid & see what kind of wiggle room I may have. I wish the vintage was not so hard to come by & I could sell them less expensive.

taunyaarmstrong @tub It is so hard to not have much room on things, if I didn't have to pay so much for them then I'd be able to come down more, but coupled with Posh, it's tough!! I have to run to the Dr & will get it all together when I get home!! Thank you Sooo much!!🐾🐾🐾🐾

taunyaarmstrong @tub Hi! Just getting back from the Dr. I will find my paperwork. I wanted to apologize for the time it's taking me. I was just told I have a "growth" in my head, so I'm a bit rattled. Medical bills are going to kill me, so every drop of sales will be going to getting by, ha, could not be more true! So I'm very grateful for your asking & I will do as best as I can afford to go down. Talk soon =^..^=

taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub 🌷 I just don't know how I can possibly do this. When I signed up here, I had no idea that "bundles" we're done (I had no idea what they were), & always priced things at the lowest I could afford to go because it's not about greed, (& had no idea that people mark up so much), but I of course have to make some. With Posh taking 20%, it eats up all room that I have.

taunyaarmstrong @tub At the full 113.00 total, they take 23.40, I paid over 60.00 for these three items, so that leaves me with no room to wiggle, I'll only end up with a little over 30.00 above what I paid for them. I hope you understand.
May 28Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong This is an example of how little I mark things up & why I have to stick to the prices I have things marked. I'm so sorry. It's not about greed! Thank you so much!! I'm so sorry I can't make it work.
May 28Reply
tub
tub Yes I do! That's why a lot of people have moved to the M one. They don't charge you for selling on that site. You might check it out. I really do want these pieces, but I will have to wait to purchase until the 17th of June. You know how bills can be. But I will get back with you during that time and check to see if any of these have been sold. OK?

tub If you don't mind me asking, you spoke of a tragedy that has hit your family. Did you loose your husband? I am only asking because I am concerned. I lost mine 14 years ago. I was 39 and our daughter was 10. It was really tough!

taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong 🌺@tub 🌺 (I'll probably have to break this into a couple segments because I'm wordy). You are so VERY kind to ask. When we were chatting between little Monroe's photo & kitty chatting, I'd told you how she came to me. No, I'm not married😔, it's just me & the kitties.
May 29Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub When I explained how I'm unable to come down on the prices because it's how I get my family by, what I meant by that was literally buying the very bare basics for myself, & I'm also trying to help my brother with some expenses.
May 29Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub 🌷 My story about getting little Monroe was when she showed up the day after my fathers funeral, in the back yard at my brothers house. My dad was my absolute life, so the grief has been quite unbearable. In a totally different way, yet, same, losing him was like when you lose a spouse. Part of me went with him.

tub I understand! Family is everything! They are sometimes the only ones that you can rely on! I really didn't mean to come across as nosey. I just like to help if I can when I find someone in honest need.
May 29Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub 🌷So, when this little stray, malnourished, dirty, weak little black kitten,(I'd been planning on getting another kitten & wanted a black one), came into the yard, I took it as my dad bringing me her as a gift to me to take care of & help me to heal through his loss.

tub I so hear you! My father passed away 8 years ago. I to was my "daddy's girl" and I was with a friend at a store when I got the call that he had suddenly died! I fainted in the store! I haven't been the same since I lost him. A piece of me went with him as well as my husband.
May 29Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub So it was the loss of my father which I was referring to. Then, the other day, when you'd asked about the bundle & I'd said I was running to the Dr & when I got home I would see if I could find any wiggle room on the prices. I found out I have a growth in my head. I don't know any more than that, at the moment, but I was rattled when I got back to you & apologized for it taking me some time to get back to you.
May 29Reply
tub
tub I truly believe that your dad did send little Monroe! I believe that we don't loose them, they watch over us and help us from another place.
May 29Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub So, those were the two things which I had conveyed, separately. I am having a very, very difficult time with the loss of my dad, and sure was not expecting to come home that day finding out about this rotten thing in my head! So I'm not sure how ends are going to meet with the medical bills ahead of me.

tub
tub I am so sorry to hear about your medical problems! I will pray for you and a speedy recovery! I am disabled, I have degeneration of the spine. I was first diagnosed with arthritis when I was 28. It just progressed from there. But I was able to work and get our daughter to age 19 before I was unable to work anymore. I can be your shoulder to lean on, if you need one.

tub I believe that God will provide a way. If you belong to a church I know if you approach them and explain what is going on they will not only put you on the prayer list but will also help you out financially. I know that it's hard to ask for help, I have a hard time doing it. But I know that when I have the results have been awesome!

taunyaarmstrong 🙏@tub 🙏 May I ask, what is your name? And here is my email address. I far rather talk about personal things through email than in public. I am extremely private! My goodness. You have been through a tremendous amount! I am so very sorry for what you have suffered through, including the loss of your father & husband. It helps to know there are others who are out there who understands that even after a decade, losing a father still affects you, and that part of you has never returned.

taunyaarmstrong @tub I lost him four months ago, quite recently. He had dementia. Due to my illness, although I live only a little over two hours away, I could not drive to see him for four years, and my brother would not come to pick me up. I felt it was dire I get to him, and my friend offered to drive me half way and my brother said he would pick me up the other half way. I was so excited to FINALLY get to see him, after four years.
May 30Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub Even though my biggest bead was he not knowing me, I did not care! I HAD to see him! I was so excited I was in tears. Hit my hair done, had my cameras ready, luggage at the door ready to leave in the morning. At 11:24, the night before me I was to leave to go see him, I got the call, he had passed.
May 30Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub It was undeniable, daddy did not want me to see him the way he was, he wanted me to have my last memories of him to be as he was the last time I saw him, when he first went into the dementia care home facility, but mind still working well enough to talk on the phone.
May 30Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub He knew I was coming, somewhere in there, he knew. That timing was not something you could call coincidence. So, instead of going home to have the joy of seeing him, I went home to Palm Springs to plan his funeral. So, that is why, I believe, it is also undeniable that God, and Daddy brought this homeless, scrawny, dirty little black kitten into my brothers yard, totally randomly when I just happened to be over there, unplanned, the day after his funeral.
May 30Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @tub That was not coincidence either. What better way to help me heal than to bring me a kitten who would need me just as much as I would need her. That was still his way of looking out for me & taking care of me, & I felt him so strongly.

I'm back! Yes!😊! It is definitely a CZ & it's beyond gorgeous! In the last photo it is exactly the color. Doesn't show so well against the black.

taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @medievalblonde 🌷Oops, forgot your question about size & silver. It's 1 in tall & 3/4 wide. I have the ring in one of the big plastic containers in a stack, so I'll get it out tomorrow as I need a ladder & not steady. I guess I'd rather fall during the day than night. (Next message)

taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @medievalblonde so the setting. I bought four of them back in the 90's. They were expensive back then, China hadn't taken over so they were still up in price & I had a good job with some disposable income. NOT now! The boxes said "silver rhodium played." Now, I've collected vntg jewelry for 41 years, & in my experience, with contemporary jewelry when it says "rhodium played" it's been over silver or 925. I do wear one of the rings & have never had any wearing off of the rhodium. (Next message)
Jan 11Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @medievalblonde Rhodium has platinum in it so it gives things a "white" "chrome" color & shine. I took out the two rings (they aren't up for sale so I can get to them, the things for sale are stacked in plastic tubs I need a ladder to get to), & girl, I took my jewelers loop out, squinted around the band so much , it cracked my Botox! Haha!
Jan 11Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @medievalblonde They are not stamped. But, they do not stick to a magnet, mine is very strong, & Sterling will not stick. Then again, could be plating too thick to reach through to a base metal. So just with my experience, & from wearing one for years & it not scratching off,, what ever they are, they are very high quality.
Jan 11Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @medievalblonde Sis I make any sense? And, each time it said "played" it should have said "plated" thank you auto correct! Just a little info. This comes from the precious metals law from 1903, in US, by law, silver doesn't have to be marked. If it is marked, it should have a assay mark somewhere. You can tell if something is Sterling (although, if platings are too thick), silver & gold will never stick to a magnet. If there is any base metal, it will stick, or slightly pull. Means it's not real
Jan 11Reply
medievalblonde
medievalblonde @taunyaarmstrong ok...my experience which hs been extensive. 100yrs ago marked and unmarked. But.... any jewelry after 1920 was on most part marked silver..sterling now 925. If not marked it's not:/ also silver has a feel to it..buttery feel:) now if no mark it is not silver. Very rare would a designer put a cz in a silver tone setting. It could be crystal.. cz is very distinctive with many cuts when looking inside the stone. Do u have any vintage jewelry?
Jan 11Reply
medievalblonde
medievalblonde This ring does look like cz and a Suzanne Somers ring..;)
Jan 11Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @medievalblonde Oh yes, it's definitely CZ. I am not one of those sellers who writes something if they aren't sure & if not, I write it. Makes me I furious when people either don't research or skirt around things, or think people are idiots & won't know better. UGH Grrrr! I've called a lot out in it, can't contain myself!
Jan 11Reply
taunyaarmstrong
taunyaarmstrong @medievalblonde Exactly, those were the years I'd always thoughts. It I was looking it up again the other day or that specific reason, to find out when the year went in & came back across the gold & silver assay (?) rules, that's where I got the info about not having to be stamped & thats why sometimes on pieces which were studio made (I collect studio jewelry), isn't always marked. It room, or, they can't afford to have a makers mark which says they have to have if they mark something 925.
