What you should know about
Jewelry Bargains and Discounts

Jewelry is the gift of lasting beauty but, if you are susceptible to the mail-order and discount promotions, TV commercials, street peddlers, and even some friend offering glittery bargains that sound tempting, your enjoyment and the jewelry may tarnish sooner than you expected. Here are some typical promotions which should make you wary.

“…40% off ... 60% off…”

The public is being bombarded by all kinds of outlets -- even well-known merchants -- offering jewelry and related items through ads and promotions claiming so-called discounts.  These “sales” are often so exaggerated that you should question whether they are true discounts:

• Was the merchandise ever sold at the regular price?
• For how long?
• Was the "retail"..."former"..."reference" price purposely inflated and then lowered to lure you into thinking you're saving money?

Deceptive pricing offers you no bargain. To avoid being ripped off, shop around... compare quality and service as well as price...and ask questions!

You may rest assured that when Tumbleweed Designs offers a sale, you are being offered legitimate discounted prices off of our regularly-priced items. You will never be pressured to make a purchase beyond your price range (our staff does not work on commission), nor will you ever find exorbitant mark-ups to enable phony "deals" and discounts.
