Speaker 1: And Will Selby is here.

14
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 5: Yes, I'm here like that. I didn't even know you

15
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:41,639
Speaker 5: remember my last name.

16
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 2: I've known Will for a long time as an artist

17
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,319
Speaker 2: manager but also as a jeweler. And I remember when

18
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: you kind of made that transition, yes into into can

19
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 2: you just talk about that just briefly.

20
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 5: Really quickly.

21
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 6: It started from the managing artists, and I used to

22
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 6: connect them with the jewelers and I would get like

23
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 6: a small percentage of small cut, and after a while

24
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 6: I had to chase my fee because the jeweler wasn't

25
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 6: given it to me. So as me chasing my fee,

26
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 6: I was spending more time at the jewelry store. So

27
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 6: I'm like, you know what, I see some holes that

28
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 6: I could probably fix up, and the rest was history.

29
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: Okay, that's yeah.

30
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 6: Me chasing my money, Yeah, me chasing my money turned

31
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 6: into a actual career.

32
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 7: So it's not right.

33
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: It wasn't like you had a I mean, Julie would

34
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: never never.

35
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 3: It wasn't like you had a history of dealing with jeweler's.

36
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 3: You kind of stumbled on it by chanceahasically.

37
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was broke at the times I couldn't afford

38
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,960
Speaker 6: in the jewelry. So I used to be an engineer

39
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 6: in the same programmer. Yeah, like a fire protection plumbing engineer. Yeah,

40
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 6: in the same program You used to design the blueprints

41
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 6: for that. It's the same thing you do to design jewelry.

42
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: Now, Rabert, what made you say let me team up with.

43
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 8: Will well Man? Will go back about fifteen years ago? Yeah, right.

44
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 8: We met through one of the people that he was

45
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 8: working with so recently. Once we launched this Army jewelry,

46
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,279
Speaker 8: I figured he might be the best partner to partner

47
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 8: up with because of his you know, industry connections and

48
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 8: just we have a good relationship for many, many years.

49
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 8: And I don't think I'll owe him any money every time.

50
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: So okay, seeship.

51
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 8: It was a good relationship, it was a good stuff.

52
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: How hard is it to get into this business?

53
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 2: Because I know you were in a Diamond district, right,

54
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: so it is Army Jewelry based in the Diamond district.

55
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 8: We're around the corner sixth and fifty.

56
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,239
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, so how hard is it to even

57
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:36,519
Speaker 2: be able to get that space there?

58
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,839
Speaker 1: And it's a very competitive location too.

59
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, our space, well, we recently, you know, we've been

60
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 8: in business for almost twenty years, not as Army Jewelry

61
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 8: but as other company names. And I think about two

62
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 8: years ago when the market crashed, prices dropped so much,

63
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 8: it was like it was dumb not to buy a space,

64
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 8: so we figured, you know, let's go buy a whole floor.

65
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 8: So we bought about fifty five hundred square feet. Oh

66
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 8: that's nice, top six floor. You know, we see Fifth Avenue,

67
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 8: it's beautiful, and we see all the lights, all the trees.

68
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 8: It's it's nice. It's how much was the office man?

69
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 5: You tell me every day?

70
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 6: Twenty million dollars every day.

71
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 7: Yeah, they got they got a mean sp it's a

72
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 7: mean spot.

73
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 1: That's amazing.

74
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 8: We're building for over year and a half. It took

75
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 8: a lot of a lot of a lot of work.

76
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 1: And this was during when was this what year?

77
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 8: I think we purchased it twenty twenty one.

78
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: Okay, right after the pandemic started.

79
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 8: Actually, I think twenty twenty and we moved in twenty

80
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 8: twenty two, twenty No, twenty twenty one. We purchased it

81
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 8: twenty twenty three April we moved in.

82
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 2: Sheesh, Let me ask about that time during the pandemic,

83
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 2: because I remember people were buying jewelry like crazy, like

84
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 2: the prices were skyrocketing. But now we're seeing those prices

85
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: come back down, suggesting it's adjusting.

86
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 8: Everything adjusted, I guess, to the new norm.

87
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 6: Okay, this is what we call people buying now right,

88
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:56,839
Speaker 6: nobody's buying now.

89
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 8: No, they're buying, but they're more efficient with their purchase.

90
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 8: Want to make sure they're getting a good deal. They

91
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 8: want to make sure they're buying the right product.

92
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 6: I tell you the truth. The money slowed up. The

93
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 6: money obviously the pandemic. Money was different. A lot of cash.

94
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 5: Out there for every everything.

95
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 7: The money was every every every everything.

96
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 5: It was different.

97
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 8: My boys game like my boy barbershop in Long Island.

98
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 8: He was making fifty thousand a week. You had like

99
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 8: twenty chairs, crazy cash, everything, everything was up when the pandemic,

100
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:28,159
Speaker 8: everything everything.

101
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 1: How do you make sure that you're getting the best deal.

102
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 8: Well, I travel a lot and I source, you know,

103
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 8: inventory throughout the world. It's really hard to get good

104
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 8: prices here in the States because it's such a big

105
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 8: competitive market. So we try, we try other avenues to

106
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 8: bring in the right inventory for the right price.

107
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 5: All Right, I think I think it's about relationship and trust.

108
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: A lot of relationship is so important because especially our.

109
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 8: Business, especially our name, how you find the person that's say,

110
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 8: you know, two seconds you do somebody wrong, the word

111
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 8: gets out, You're done. Yeah, you know, your business goes

112
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 8: from one hundred percent to forty percent and that whole

113
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 8: point of being in it.

114
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: Did you like the movie Uncut Gems?

115
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 8: I watched the little bit. I watched a little bit.

116
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 8: I know the people there.

117
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, I love that movie.

118
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 6: Though we honestly deal with that every day. Like it's

119
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 6: not fabricated.

120
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: It's not deal with west for people who have ever

121
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: seen it.

122
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 6: We deal with the the lies, the the I guess,

123
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 6: the indiscretions. We deal with the basically everything you saw

124
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 6: in the movie as far as how dishonest individuals can be.

125
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 6: I'm from Brooklyn, you know, and from when Brooklyn was Brooklyn,

126
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 6: and I've.

127
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 5: Never dealt with anything worse than the Domon District. Never

128
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 5: like you would. These people that look like they're the

129
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 5: most innocent people in the world will take advantage of you.

130
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 8: That's what.

131
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 5: That's just the Domin District. You know, you can't trust anyone.

132
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 2: And for anybody who's not from New York and hasn't

133
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 2: been to the Diamond District, it's definitely a place where

134
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 2: one block, one.

135
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 3: Block nothing but jury and diamonds, and you've got all

136
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 3: jury stars on one block, right, And then you have

137
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 3: people outside, you know, soliciting you.

138
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 7: You know, like you we got the best, we.

139
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 3: Got the best diamonds over here, we have the best

140
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 3: goal you behind me selling whatever it is they got

141
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 3: they got to run. It's outside pulling you in. So

142
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 3: if you like a tourist, you can definitely getting pulled

143
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 3: in one of those shops.

144
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, but there's a there is, Listen, there is some

145
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 8: people that are still stand up and they still do business,

146
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 8: absolutely honest business. But it's very few and those are

147
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 8: very hard to find. But again, to ruin your name,

148
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 8: it's very very simple. But to keep your name, it's

149
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 8: years and years and years of hard work, you know.

150
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 8: So we started working from Canalcry you know, we came

151
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 8: from Canal Street to forty seven. So it was it

152
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 8: was it was a hard you know, earn trip.

153
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: So when I go to Canwstry and shop, I got

154
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 2: to bring my well, I like bamboo earrings and.

155
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 5: Stuff like that. Shop what you said, that's it.

156
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: Because I'm gonna tell you.

157
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 7: What can I just want to absolutely The.

158
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: Reason why it is because you know, I'm half Chinese

159
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,760

00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 7: I want that DM to be healthy.

Speaker 8: I mean to be healthy.

170
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 2: So for Robert, for Amy Jewelry, why did you have

171
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 2: to like I know you said that it's been different

172
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 2: businesses at different times. So what are the reasons why,

173
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 2: Because I know a lot of people have jewelers they've

174
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 2: used for a long time, that you might have to

175
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 2: change your business.

176
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 8: But you know, thirty years ago, in like eighty nine

177
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 8: ninety my dad started on Canal. Then you know, when

178
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 8: I hit eighteen, instead of going to college, graduated of

179
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 8: high school, it's like they just opened up a little

180
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 8: store and just start your own thing. So I kind

181
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 8: of started my own thing ninety eight ninety nine. By

182
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 8: two thousand and three and four, I was like, I'm

183
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 8: tired of this Canal show. I got to go to

184
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 8: forty seven. I got out of the retail game. I

185
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 8: came to the wholesale game. Basically I was selling directly

186
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 8: to the stores that was selling to everybody else. It's

187
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 8: better because your money comes in fast because it has

188
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 8: to buy it has to sell it. And you build

189
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 8: a relationship and you build you know, you build a brand,

190
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 8: you build a name for yourself. And last four or

191
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 8: five years, I saw the market change that the stores

192
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 8: don't need to go to wholesalers and get inventory because

193
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 8: they got the direct manufacturers knocking on their door. Here

194
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 8: this for you don't buy from Robert, buy from me.

195
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 8: So I figured, you know, it's time before the business

196
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 8: shuts down and fails. You got a transition. I'm always moving, moving, moving, moving.

197
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 8: So I said, you know what, let's open up an

198
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 8: online business. You know, the name came from my little daughter,

199
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 8: so always say Amy, Amy, Amy Amy. I was like, okay,

200
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 8: you know what, let me called Amy Jeweler. Let's see

201
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 8: what happens. So we called it Amy and we just

202
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 8: started the advertising promoting, and you know, thank god, four

203
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,199
Speaker 8: or five years later, we're in a nice healthy position.

204
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 8: We always want to grow though.

205
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 2: And well, let's talk about some of the people that

206
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 2: you have had as clients, because I know you worked

207
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 2: with a.

Speaker 6: For except for you know, Tiger Trey songs. You know,

210
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 6: the list goes on.

211
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 2: So when people come to you, right is it do

212
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 2: they know like what they want? Or how are you

213
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 2: able to help them design?

214
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 6: I try to make it an experience, and I try

215
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 6: to I try to make sure that they don't have

216
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,559
Speaker 6: to do much. I don't even wait for the their opinion.

217
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 6: I try to create on my own and then present

00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 6: it to them. Okay, So I try to, you know,

219
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 6: just provide an experience that's different from any of the

220
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,720

221
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 6: what's going to.

222
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 5: Separate me from the other individuals? So I try to think.

223
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: For them, okay, all right?

224
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,720

00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,439
Speaker 2: the price if you pay cash. I know sometimes you

00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: can get a better deal that way. Like, what are

245
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 2: some things you can do?

246
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 6: No, you just you just basically have to do a

247
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 6: little bit of research and just understand that we're always

248
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 6: going to try to make some money, but we're not

249
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 6: going to try to take advantage of you. And you

250
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 6: just have to basically trust the person that you're dealing with.

251
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 5: Trust Like I used to buy I used.

252
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 6: To buy stuff from Rob when he had a wholesale business,

253
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 6: and we developed the trust to the point where I

254
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 6: don't even question his pricing. He tells me one thing

255
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 6: and I know for sure he's gonna give me the

256
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 6: best deal.

257
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: So you're not going to have you just be like

258
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: I don't even because I.

259
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 5: Know he wants and he appreciates my business.

260
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 4: So for people that don't know, they're not familiar with

261
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 4: the brand, what is the difference from from y'all and

262
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 4: other jewelry brands everybody else in the Diamond district?

263
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 6: I would say the creativity, I would relationships to relationship,

264
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 6: the trust, trust, trust, trust, and more importantly, we're going

265
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 6: to try to give you more bang for your buck

266
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 6: because us. The more you promote us is the more

267
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 6: our business increases. So we understand a bigger picture versus

268
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 6: just trying to make a quick lick initially off of someone.

269
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 6: So I think that's what separates us from the actual

270
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 6: other jewelers that are just walking.

271
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 5: Up and down the block.

272
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 2: Okay, the holidays are coming up, all right, so we

273
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,520

280
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,160

282
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:45,400

284
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,920

291
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 6: three months?

292
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 3: Three months time for gifts times?

293
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 7: How about three weeks?

294
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: It's hard to buy guys jewelry. I think it is.

295
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 8: Because it's give me expensive.

296
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it can be very.

297
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 3: Diamond chain, Relax, you can't get gold without diamonds.

298
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 2: Because a chain is probably the most expensive way to

299
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 2: go because they're the biggest ring.

300
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 7: Well yeah, watch it depends watch the most expensive. Now

301
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 7: a ring would be more.

302
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 1: But then a ring, I feel like symbolizes too much.

303
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 7: No, no, unless you're going.

304
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:41,079
Speaker 1: People are like, oh my.

305
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 7: God, no diamond ring.

306
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 6: You guys find excuses to get us nothing nothing. I

307
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 6: realized that too early. It's not just symbolized.

308
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 2: Nobody tell me do not buy black diamonds on why

309
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 2: why did they say that? They said black diamonds are

310
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 2: what is You tell me it's like dying coal.

311
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's not that. I don't think. Yeah, black diamonds,

312
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 8: I don't really think they are really one hundred percent

313
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 8: natural black. Okay, they have to be coded with something

314
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 8: to be exactly just like the rest of the pink

315
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 8: blue green that is in the market now. It's mostly

316
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 8: coded because a real pink diamond small half a character

317
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 8: is a million dollars.

318
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 3: That's yeah, it's treated, treated colored, it's basically painted.

319
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's still diamonds, don't get me wrong, it's still.

320
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: It's just like how it looks. It's about about value.

321
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 8: It's not a real but there is canary. There is canary.

322
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 7: But a lot of what we're seeing is not true

323
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 7: the color because it's just colored.

324
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 9: That's actually a question I have for somebody like me

325
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 9: who don't just be band Damn, it's a lot. What

326
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 9: type of diamonds.

327
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 5: Do you wat?

328
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 8: Diamonds?

329
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 9: I mean I do, but like if I go on

330
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 9: a jewey store, you know they might be like, oh,

331
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 9: these bbs is what it is today? What is the

332
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 9: left board damage that you will say is will pass

333
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 9: the test versus the lower class?

334
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: That's that's like a good investment too.

335
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 8: Oh, that's a really hard question.

336
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 5: We're trying not to say anything lower than SI one.

337
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 8: It's not even that you if you're going inside a

338
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 8: jewelry store and you want to buy something with diamonds. Again, again,

339
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 8: the first thing is trust the guy can't sell you

340
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 8: no garbage. If you have a certain budget, he's got

341
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 8: to show you something decent quality for that budget. He

342
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 8: shouldn't be able to sell you something that's not worth

343
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 8: anything for something, you know what I'm saying to say VS.

344
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 8: To say side, most of the jewelers are bullshit and

345
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 8: everything is VS. VS. Why because people heard VS.

346
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 5: Right, Because it's like we really don't know. There's no reason.

347
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 8: Again, it's trust. Like when somebody buys let's say a

348
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 8: diamond started rolics right, they're like, Yo, this is OVS.

349
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 8: It's OVS. I told him it's not VS. Because you

350
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 8: can't have a thousand stones in the watch. That's OVS.

351
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 8: Otherwise you're paying instead of twenty thousand, you're paying sixty thousand.

352
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 8: The guy sits there and picks exactly those little stones.

353
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 8: Won but wanted to make sure. There's way too much

354
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 8: time VF though VF no VS VS.

355
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 7: But other than VS, you can do it.

356
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 8: If that's that's flawless.

357
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 5: So that's the best.

358
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 8: That's the best. Yeah, but again people can't expect, like

359
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 8: a lot of people come, yo, me get that VS.

360
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 8: Shame for ten thousands. He doesn't know what he's saying

361
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 8: it's not you can't get a via that VS. Shame

362
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 8: for ten thousand, but he heard other jewelers saying VS

363
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 8: VS VS. So they think that everything is VS.

364
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 2: I think it's important to take time out too when

365
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 2: when people come in to kind of educate them.

366
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: Also, you know, because a.

367
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 2: Lot of times I tell us he we'll go in

368
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 2: like wanting something, but we don't know what we should

369
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 2: be even asking.

370
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 8: Our brand only jewelry, we stand behind and we if

371
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 8: it's VS. We say it's VS. A lot of customers

372
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 8: buy online because of trust, because of Google reviews, because

373
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 8: they're frame boll Like this year we have forty percent

374
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:05,360
Speaker 8: repeat back customers coming buying for the season. For online business,

375
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 8: forty percent is a huge, huge market, huge number. So

376
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 8: we have the analytics. We catch who's the customer, when

377
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 8: did they buy phons before? What did they buy and

378
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 8: we see them coming back. That means that they both

379
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 8: from us, they tested it and they're satisfied. That's why

380
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 8: a year later or within the year they're coming to

381
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 8: buy more. Otherwise, if you buy something online you're not

382
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 8: happy with it, you will never buy there ever again.

383
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 2: Now, what is the point of buying like a new

384
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 2: Rolex versus a pre owned, certified pre owned Rolex, like

385
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 2: because I feel like, you know, you can find something

386
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 2: that somebody and to be I guess right, less expensive

387
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 2: if you're getting something that's pre own. Right, So does

388
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 2: it make sense to even buy brand new if you

389
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 2: can get a better deal on something.

390
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 6: I mean, it depends on your preference, Like some people

391
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 6: like new construction versus an older home.

392
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 5: Okay, it's about what you prefer in I guess your budget.

393
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 8: Budget is exactly your budget.

394
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 5: And what you're comfortable with.

395
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 6: So I personally like brand new, that's just me, but

396
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 6: pre on is just as good, right, So it depends

397
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 6: on your budget, your comfortability, and where you want to

398
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 6: be with your time piece.

399
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: All right, I want to make I want to start

400
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: making some investments.

401
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 8: You know, in today's age, between you secondhand and brand new,

402
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 8: it's not that big of a difference.

403
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you have something that's pre that's really made.

404
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 8: Addition, Yeah, So it's it's it's not like a watch

405
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,360
Speaker 8: cost fifteen thousand and getting used them for five.

406
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 5: I bought twelve twelve exactly.

407
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 7: I bought pre owned Rolexes for presents.

408
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,360
Speaker 5: For presence, yeah, and I guess you get yourself brand new.

409
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 7: No, I'm just saying like, okay, I'm gonna let her

410
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 7: know who's.

411
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 5: I bet as a girl in the d M.

412
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 7: Here's the thing with the paperwork and everything.

413
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 2: And you've got to have the paperwork, right, That's always necessary.

414
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 8: Not always necessary some people.

415
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 7: Because watch just be too old. I had to paperwork.

416
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,719
Speaker 8: No, there is some old watches with PaperWorks too. I

417
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 8: get watches from eighties still with paper Yeah.

418
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 6: I mean it still holds the value, but the paperwork

419
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 6: just makes more just better.

420
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 5: Yeah.

421
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 8: Again, if you're buying from a reputable person, you really

422
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,400
Speaker 8: have nothing to worry about because if something goes wrong,

423
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 8: you go directly to him. He's gonna make sure he

424
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 8: has to take care of it.

425
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 2: I promise myself next year, I'm gonna buy myself like

426
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 2: a nice watch.

427
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 5: He's not gonna buy it for you.

428
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 7: We're gonna get a good deal. We're gonna get a

429
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 7: good deal on that watch.

430
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: I want to finish. I gotta finish the construction on

431
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 1: my house, which.

Speaker 7: to be good, iget.

434

Speaker 5: We're gonna see definitely gonna be a good deal.

00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: We'll make it.

436
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 2: We'll make a whole movie out of it. Yes, me

437
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 2: buying my first because I have a Rolex. I didn't

438
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 2: buy it, but I want to buy like someone gives me.

439
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, come on.

440
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 5: Robert, I don't think she deserves a game she does.

441
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: Is that the wise that you would say people should

442
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 1: invest in?

443
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 2: Because I know there's a lot of different brands out there,

444
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 2: but does that Rolexes always today?

445
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 8: Okay, yeah, I think the top can never go wrong

446
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 8: with what do you think they.

447
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 7: Never go out of style? Yeah, certain watches will come and.

448
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,640
Speaker 8: It's not in the style the values always.

449
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 7: But certain watches are coming.

450
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 8: It's hot, they go.

451
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 3: It was a couple of years ago. Everybody's talking about

452
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 3: Hue Blow. Everybody was on that right, But the Rolex

453
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 3: is timeless.

454
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 2: I might want to get one of the number Guarry

Speaker 1: Yes, what about Onemi? I always hear. I don't know

459
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: nothing about watches.

460

Speaker 8: Okay, just got Cactus Jack, that one that want everybody

461

Speaker 8: out half a million dollars for that watch. That's way overpriced.

464
00:20:58,480 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 8: They just put his name on it, and that's it.

465
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 1: I guess if you can get it, of.

515
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:09,639

522
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 8: When you see a lot of it doesn't excite you anymore.

523
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 1: Now, Well, for you haven't been behind the scenes. There

524
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: was a period of.

525
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 2: Time that you were in the tabloids. I was, yeah,

526
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 2: did that help business?

527
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 8: I don't even.

528
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 6: About to say that what you're talking about? What but

529
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,919
Speaker 6: a couple of things that I did briefly see. I

530
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 6: just ignore it, honestly because the tabloids, for I don't

531
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 6: know Jack, who's here that no you speak?

532
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 7: You speaking to the world? Is your the tab list?

533
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 6: Well, I think it was something pertaining to Wendy Williams.

534
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 6: Wendy Williams, I'm sorry Wendy Williams. I don't think anything

535
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 6: happened to her. I just think people just had an

536
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 6: opinion because Wendy's such a strong figure.

537
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 7: What they had to do with you.

538
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 6: I managed Wendy Williams and I with friends.

539
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 5: I manage her, I do jey for her.

540
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 6: Just connected in so many different ways, So you know,

541
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 6: I just I just feel like everyone had an opinion

542
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 6: about Wendy, and you know, I had something to say

543
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 6: about it, but I realized I can't always respond everything

544
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 6: that I see because.

545
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: You're not used to being in that position.

546
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 5: For me.

547
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 6: So the minute they came for me, I figured, I'm

548
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 6: gonna let them know I'm not the person to come for.

549
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 6: But I realized it's just a better way to deal

550
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 6: with things, and it's just sometimes better to just be quiet.

551
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 7: It's just a business relationship.

552
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 6: Yes, that's only a business relationship. Initially, I just tell

553
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 6: you truth. Since were on way up, Wendy wanted to

554
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,199
Speaker 6: make her ex husband jealous, so she was flirting with

555
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 6: me a little bit. Yes, yes, And he's a great guy.

556
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 6: He had a lot to endure just dealing with Wendy

557
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 6: hands on. I know it's a lot, so I know

558
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 6: he had to go through a lot. So I have

559
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 6: nothing without most respect for him. But you know, she

560
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 6: wanted to make him jealous, so she was bothering me,

561
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 6: and she was, you know, taking a couple of close

562
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 6: photos and everything got leaked and.

563
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:18,919
Speaker 5: They made it did make all the weight.

564
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 7: At all.

565
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 5: I didn't go anywhere. I don't want to mask. I

566
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 5: did nothing. I didn't even give her an extended hug.

567
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 5: With friends, we do business.

568
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: I feel like extended hug.

569
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 6: I just looked that way. Yet it was like two

570
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 6: seconds it wasn't, but it was.

571
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,120
Speaker 5: It's just business. There's nothing outside of that.

572
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: Okay.

573
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 5: With friends, we care about each other. I got nothing

574
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 5: but love for him.

575
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: Did you end up? So you started up as a

576
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 1: jeweler and then she asked you to manage her?

577
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 5: Well, I think same thing like the jewelry.

578
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 6: We were having a lot of conversations and I was

579
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 6: just like, well, Wendy, you should be doing this.

580
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 5: You know, maybe you should be doing that. Why isn't

581
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:58,120
Speaker 5: this happening?

582
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 6: And I guess and just the conversations that we had,

583
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 6: she felt like I could be an asset to her business.

584
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 1: And so you still manage her now? So how is

585
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: she doing?

586
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 5: Wendy is resting right now, Wendy. Wendy needs a break.

587
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 6: In my opinion, I feel like she's been working straight

588
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 6: for like fourteen fifteen years, right and you know it's

589
