TO THE UNTRAINED eye, moissanite can be mistaken for another more illustrious gemstone (which is kind of the point), but there was no fooling the readers of INSTORE. We had a great response to last month’s Gem Quiz with pretty much no one providing the wrong answer (although a few were tripped up by the spelling – that’s an “a” in the middle of the word!). When it came to picking a winner for the grand prize (a stylish Gem Geek t-shirt), Robert Sturman’s name came out of the hat. Well done, Robert, who hails from Laughlin Jewelry in Laughlin, NV, as well as all our many Honorable Mentionees, who also answered correctly.

Time for More “Me Time”? Time to Call Wilkerson

Rick White, owner of White’s & Co. Jewelry in Rogers, Ark., knew it was time to retire. Since the age of 18, jewelry had been his life. Now it was time to get that “me time” every retailer dreams about. So, he chose Wilkerson to manage his going-out-of-business sale. White says he’d done plenty of sales on his own, but this was different. “Wilkerson has been a very, very good experience. I’ve had the best salespeople in the history of jewelry,” he says. “I recommend Wilkerson because they are really the icon of the jewelry business and going-out-of-business sales. They’ve been doing it for decades. I just think they’re the best.”
