π₯° To my amazing customers β I want to be transparent about something that has become an issue at events!
βΌοΈ SHOPLIFTING βΌοΈ
π₯ Every piece you see on display at my events has already been purchased upfront out of my own pocket before it ever reaches you. I do this intentionally so my clients can enjoy instant gratification β meaning you can leave with your jewelry the same day instead of waiting on shipping delays, backorders, or online ordering delays.
π’ Unfortunately, theft directly impacts my ability to continue offering that convenience. When items are stolen, its not just a "get over it and move on type of thing" It is money that I personally invested into my business, and am waiting to make back. π²
π€·ββοΈ Because of repeated losses, I will no longer be keeping multiples of items on hand moving forward. π Price increases may become necessary in order to continue offering the convenience of in-stock items and same-day purchases. π¬
π I truly appreciate every single person who supports my business, respects my products, and understands the work, time, and financial investment that goes into creating a positive shopping experience. Your support means more than you know. π
π Please remember: supporting small businesses doesnβt only mean making purchases β it also means helping create a respectful environment where small businesses can continue to grow and serve their communities. π₯°
π« With that being said... I will conclude with saying I have no time for people who steal. I am easy to work with and if you are struggling with paying... talk to me rather than just taking and maybe we can work something out. π
β‘οΈ To the person(s) who took ring(s) from my booth today at JunqueFest in Webster City, I hope you are enjoying your new item(s). π
