Jewelry Survey

[kheri]

As per JA, NYC margins on pearls, fashion and color jewelry got better in 2005. What do you say?

I say yes and no. As a percentage margins have dropped significantly over the last year. But average tickets have gone up. So margins have gone up as well.

I would agree with Jeremy. This may be the case for retail but not so for the online world.
