    Thats not how the tester works. Depending on the room temperature and carrot of the stone you turn it up an6wheres to 2-6 bars. Really small diamonds would be 4-6 depending on the temperature but for most stones its 4 then tou touch it. If it goes past 9 into the red its a diamond. 8 is cz everything less depends on the hardness of the stone. Peridote is 7 citrine is 6 sapphire is 8-9 ect. So depending on your room temperature for the itty bitty stones you set it to 4-6 on the back should be a chart to tell you what temperature and carrot size to test at. Then it tests the conductivity of the item to figure out the hardness. Thats why when you touch metal it beeps instantly diamonds are hard and more conductive than other stones.

    Centre stone on the ring looks like a garnet. January birthstone.
    If you continue to find jewellery, you might want to establish a relationship with a jeweller who is local to you, whom you can trust. Appraisals for pieces like this ring, buying broken gold for a percentage of spot value (melt value), repair of valuable pieces, and purchasing your finds.

  • @sallycrawford3782
    @sallycrawford3782 10 месяцев назад

    The Cabbage Patch doll may have value. Other male resellers purchase them depending on age & collectability. One utuber passed on one worth $300. The pair of Raggedy dolls looked homemade. The pair may sell for $40 or more. Nostalgic items have appeal. I've viewed multiple male sellers that buy stuffed animals or plushies to sell on Whatnot auctions or in their eBay stores.

    It looks like a garnet, but you definitely have a little money in the ring. Being that it is 10kt gold, its obvious that its not a whole lot, but its something. You could probably sell it for about $125.00, and then all the sealed sports cards, you can probably make your money back, as well the ring. I had 3 of my own jewelry stores back in the early 80's. You will at least get what you paid for the unit, and little bit more.
    Good luck!

    It must be a RUclips thing of giving back pictures and personal items. I've been buying lockers for close to 20 years and the managers of the storage units have told me you dont have to do that, because they have no responsibility to contact the former owner of the unit, and they just throw away all the stuff left behind.

    • @thriftmine
      @thriftmine  11 месяцев назад

      To be honest, if they give you the option, why wouldn’t you? One less thing you’ve gotta get rid of. In this case here-we would’ve had to haul home about 10 bins of pictures to dispose of vs. giving back to the facility for them to deal with.

    I'm curious as to why you can't show the photos. You own them, no? Not sure what your local laws are, or what RUclips's policy is, or what the storage facility's policies are, though. Are you being prevented from displaying your own legal property, or are you choosing to out of respect?
