Found an awesome place to get silver CHEAP!

There's a place I went to today that was selling jewelery in a bargain bin for $2 a pop! For any item you pay $2 a piece for. I got a nice digital watch and 5 silver rings for $10 today! I'm going to hit this place up often. The bargain bin has about 95% junk jewelry in it but my trained MDing eyes caught silver from afar and I got away with it! I only picked the heavier pieces and the retail tag on the rings was about $20 for each! I have a video that shows the rings in a better light and some pics for those of you that hate video. It's uploading now. What do you all think? Was it worth it?

Update: Tested that weight, came out to 20 grams, that's $12.27 in melt so I made a small profit! Woo hoo!

Hard to tell size in the pics but a ring would have to be HUGE to weigh the same as a silver dollar... a silver dollar is 26 grams and I think the biggest silver ring I've ever dug was maybe 10 grams? Only way to tell is to throw them on a good scale I guess. Good luck!

EDIT: Unless you mean all the rings together weigh the same as a silver dollar? That might make sense.

even @ 10 grams they should be worth about $6 each if my math is right.

That's exactly what I mean.

Good deal, silver is always nice! A friend of mine used to go to yard sales and ask the people if they had any "costume jewelry", he always found hidden gold in those boxes.....
