people from this mesage board seems like to happy to share good informatione anything
Jewelry shop name and # to information about fashion, handbag,etc with everybody.

me too, I am so happy to share anyinformation with people if someone want to know,

however ,there is people who dosen''t want to share some good information,


BUT the person don''t mind to ask information to someone

(my point is don''t want to share, but want to be shared)

I just wonder because I just had odd Experience.so I wanted to know you guy''s opinion.
 
What kind of odd experience did you have?

I''m all for sharing good tips, good deals, good information with people...after all, that''s what we''re here for, as well as to relay bad experiences as well so others can learn something from our mistakes. It''s one of the reasons I recounted my woes with having a custom job done...there are so many wonderful custom pieces on here, but I wanted others to know it''s not always sunshine and roses...it can be very trying depending on who you pick to do your job!

Equally, if there''s a good deal (ie. Mara''s circle pendant from eBay) I think it''s cool when people share the information and give others the opportunity to peruse it for themselves. Especially on an online forum such as this...it''s not like we see each other every day and would all be wearing the same clothes, jewelry, etc!!

I''ve noticed that the people that love to share are the people that tend to not be the jealous type. I always share where I got something, how much it cost, etc., etc., because I love a good deal, I love beautiful things, and why can''t everyone have a good deal and beauty around them as well?

I''ve rarely met anyone that didn''t want to share where they found something.

Hello.
I''m somewhat limited in what I can share because I don''t have a digital camera or a scanner. But I''m always happy to talk about acquisitions, stores, handbags etc.
 
I too enjoy the PS forum because everyone is so helpful.

I find that I will share a lot on the internet, there is some anoyminity (sp?) in sharing details of something with another poster.

In person I find myself much the same way. However, there are some more personal things that I will choose who I share with, but I will answer any question regarding the subject, and test the waters with some people. My mother on the other hand will open a can of worms even if no one asks! lol.

On line these things do not apply - but in person I refrain from .. say, for example, telling my co-workers how much I spent for an expensive item.. Or asking how much they have spent on a similar one. Medical issues.. etc.

If the person talking with me and is geniuniely interested - I''ll certainly share.. but I don''t offer that - I don''t know why.. but it just feels weird.


I have no idea what your sharing issue was.. but what if the person was not comfortable sharing about that subject? Could you tell if that was the case.. or if they were just being rude to you..?
 
I love to share information with my fellow PS''ers and love how everyone is soooo helpful here. Case in point my asscher thread, everyone helped me out and it was great.

I have proof that D4M even shares her rocks.

My son has been a recipient her generous sharing.
 
I''ve always been one to share information. We all learn that way. I agree with FG about sharing the downside of a custom job. I had a horrible first experience, and at the time, it seemed like everyone was posting fantasic outcomes. It''s good to finally see a few come out about the frustrations.

I certainly don''t share my jewelry acquisitions with everyone. I have PS and a close circle of friends who can appreciate the information and be supportive rather than judgemental. On the other hand, there are some, including a few family members, who I would not even bring it up with. You know, the "can-you-top-this" type. I just don''t bother.
 
If I can help and think I have some credible knowledge based on my consumer's experience, I am happy to share/comment. I try not to comment on some of the more technical discussions because I am not an expert or a GG, etc.. I think it's important for lay people to qualify their opinions as a somewhat educated consumer's point of view versus the opinion of a gemologist or other such expert with 5,10, 15 years of experience.

I think I underatand what you mean, though, flower12...don't let it upset you. Be your lovely self, share what you know and enjoy the friendly people here, who are certainly the majority.

In terms of people in your "real life," don't share with anyone who can't be truly happy for you. Like Diamondlil, I pick and choose with whom I talk about jewelry because people either don't get it or have all sorts of crtiicisms ranging from the "oneupsmanship" routine to contempt that I have so much jewelry but am not pregnant yet (but that's a whoooole other thread, tho

). Know what I say? "Scr*w everyone else; as long as your happiness is not built on the pain of others, do what you want."

ETA: I have stopped starting new SMTR threads and post new baubles in my WW thread simply becasue I feel SMTR is for erings, wedding bands and other more substantial pieces or for people who are somewhat new and want to post their collections. I am getting to be "old hat" around here so I just stick my stuff in WW and anyone who feels like commenting can.

K-Mom, I am just overjoyed that he loved it so much. The next time I go back I''ll send him some more. I love going and digging for them but after that I just throw them in a box and there they sit. I am so happy that they are put to use and he can learn about them.

everybody ! thank you very much for post!
I wanted to write what's was going one. however the person might be read .
so I guess better not to write every detail.

>I've noticed that the people that love to share are the people that tend to not be the jealous type
I think so too!

Laney,
>I have no idea what your sharing issue was.. but what if the person was not comfortable sharing about that subject? Could you tell if that was the case.. or if they were just being rude to you..?

well.. I don;t know how I can explaine.

In fact I asked jeweler phone # for my dougther.
and she told me will let you know ( after this message,even I recived another message,but still no phone # or name,
I guess if she gose to the shop often ,she would know least name of shop or phone #)

and my dougther has waited to every day and check PC all the time for more than couple days.
never got answer.

BUT ! very helpful person told me all the information I wanted to get.
I end up got the # . then I heard Odd story when I called the shop from shop's owner.
my point is that's fine if she dosen't want to share
but pretend to be share is Bad,


Jennifer

Flower,
I am sorry that someone wasn''t willing to share the info you were looking for. Most of us are only too happy to help our fellow PS people out. That''s a shame for your daughter as well.
