Ever Wonder Why Pimps Wear So Much Jewelry?
923783
Before reading this book, I never understood why pimps wear so much gaudy jewelry.  Now I know (hint: there's a practical reason for it).  If you love "Pawn Stars" you'll love this book.

My only complaint (and it's a minor one) is that it should be longer.  I'm sure the Harrisons have a million great stories to tell and we only get to hear a handful of them.  Perhaps there will be a second book.

All in all, it's a good book.  It's an easy and entertaining read.  Rick Harrison narrates most of the book, but there are chapters told by the Old Man, Corey and Chumlee.

WOW! Just wow! This is so nice that almost all of the people I met at last night's event noticed it. Mostly girls tho because I don't think men ever notices fine jewelry ha ha!

This is a beautiful piece of jewelry. I don't know why anyone would complain, look at the price! Although it's like walking around at a flea market and picking up some costume jewelry this is so different, so pretty. It is bigger than I expected but that doesn't bother me, it's pretty. The chain is longer also but that's o.k. too because everyone needs different sizes of necklaces, right ladies?

My mistress loves this necklace and earring set. She thinks I spent a fortune ;)

I did find myself reaching for a jewelry cloth to buff it some but I see a small addiction forming. =)

I was trying to match a darker-colored necklace I already owned, but your bracelet was much lighter - and prettier.  I do not want to send it back. No!  I want you guys to find me a matching 8-10 mm matching single, or double, row necklace.  I'm crazy about your bracelet!

I don't wear much jewelry besides a wedding band, a watch, and, occasionally earrings, so I am pretty picky about them when I do wear them.

These arrived looking exactly as they do in Amazon's ad, smallish pearls with a black background and the tiniest little diamond chip double zig zag design. The look is classic, like something you might wear to work to feel a little fancy or for an evening out. When I wore them for the first time, I first noticed the unusual (at least to me) clasp. They bend at a hidden hinge along the bottom. To close them you snap the into-your-ear part that ends with a hook from the front part into a rectangle with a lip that catches in the back. The closure seems secure, which, of course, I like. What I didn't like as much was the weight of the earrings, which felt heavy to me (I'm use to wearing the less conspicuous hook style). At the end of the day, my ears felt the relief of a weight being lifted off when I finally removed them. I've worn them several times since, and felt the same each time. I've also since noticed a small flaw along the side of the pearl of one of the earrings. I understand that pearls may have flaws, but this looks exactly like a small amount (about 1 mm diameter) of coating (which I'm not sure they even have) has rubbed off. In fact, in the photo that goes with the ad for the earrings, it looks just like the little white dot that is, I think, light reflecting off of them. In the case of the earrings I received, rubbing along the flaw removes nothing - so it appears to be an actual flaw. If I had actually bought them, instead of receiving them for free in exchange for a review, I'd be annoyed with the flaw. As it is, it bothers me little only because they were free to me and can only be noticed from closer than any polite person might be.

The diamonds are super tiny, but they do look exactly like the magnified version in the photo. In summary, for the price, you'll get exactly what you see in the photo that accompanies the ad. Best of the earrings, nice clasp, semi-fancy look. Worst...they are kinda heavy.

These beads are terrific for jewelry making, especially if you want an ethnic, hand-made look.  Of course they are hand made, which would explain why they look that way... Also lots more than 76, so you can make all sorts of interesting patterns...

The material is very thin (breathable) and the pouch holds the jewels nicely. Thus, makes you look like a male stripper ready to par'tay!

I won't post a picture because it will be NSFW.

Oh my God, I wanted a strand of puka shells sooooo bad back in the 70s but my parents had 5 kids and my mom said it was too expensive. She got me some fake ones but ugh, no way, I would rather die than wear those obviously plastic and super-fake puka shells for ONE MINUTE (I was nothing if not grateful and polite when I was a teenager). Then I finally got some real ones after laboring countless hours babysitting and snooping around after the kids were in bed, looking for porn, mostly, since I still didn't know much about drugs, except for pot, of course. And then, guess what, my sister and I got into a knock-down, drag-out, hair-pulling fight in the kitchen one morning before school and she BROKE my puka shell necklace. TRAGIC. Naturally no one had any sympathy at all because, you know, fighting, so that was the end of my puka shell phase. I broke my sister's Add-A-Bead necklace, though, so it's all good. So anyway, then it became the 80s and I didn't care so much about puka shells anymore and by the 2010s had forgotten all about them. I am not sure what triggered the desire to once again possess the puka shells--maybe I caught a few seconds of a "That 70s Show" re-run and saw a strand gracing Ashton Kutcher's skinny neck. Who knows, the point is I had a huge nostalgic 70s flashback and since I am an ADULT now who HAS A JOB and MAKES MY OWN MONEY, I zipped right onto Amazon and snapped me up a strand. I got the TIGER SHELL ones. too, instead of the boring old plain white ones. This necklace is GORGEOUS. And what the heck, Mom--they weren't THAT expensive! I would TOTALLY buy some for my daughter, if I had one, which (thank God) I don't.

I just don't get this line of Gurhan jewelry. Maybe because the brand is worn by celebrities and sold as fine jewelry at Saks, they get away with selling a line of lower-priced unattractive pieces using common craftsman skills such as the clove line. Each clove is the thickness of foil to the eye (obviously not to the touch). The whole thing just looks cheap. I'm surprised to see similar Gurhan clove jewelry selling full price at Saks but nobody will think you're wearing expensive earrings. They do come with a nice small giftable Gurhan-logo velvety bag.

Well I was shocked by the quality of these pieces. Have purchased the iced out basketball hoop and#23 necklaces and the rope chains are the perfect length that as you we're all items in question.  They are all the same tone of gold. They are just like the 10K  necklaces that I purchased. Between the iced out football helmet and iced out football. They are the same tone as the 18K rope chains &Cuban link chains. So now that I have you all confused these rope chains resemble a 10 carat piece of gold and are the same tone as the basketball hoop and the number 23 and the 30 in rope chain that is named Hip Hop for whatever reason that rope chain is the perfect tone of the Iced Out football helmet and football you cannot wear them at the same time because of the difference in color but these particular rope chains in question match the hoop and the number 23 perfectly and The Hip Hop 30 in rope chain matches the Iced Out football helmet and football to the T by no mistake these things have lasted a lot longer than they thought they would and their quality and shine you never would know that their gold filled or plated I sweat in them taking a shower in them and not once have any shade of green or a loss of tone for the merchandise it's well worth the investment just make sure you keep your pistol locked and loaded because with the quality of this jewelry in E degenerate idiot will try and remove them from your neck so like I said stay locked and loaded a little bit of moving target practice is always fun when somebody doesn't want to go out and work in earn their money instead of stealing it from good folks like us

I get so many compliments on these. I never try to pass them off as legit tapers, so I'm not sure on that aspect, but they are definitely some of the most unique earrings most people have seen. The plastic is silky soft and I find myself playing with them all the time as a result. The gauge seems to be just slightly larger than conventional earrings so you might encounter some soreness at first. My only hang up is that the loopier ones are sometimes tricky to screw together.

Is it expensive?  Yes!  But I love pearls & diamonds.  Wear them all the time.  Now my cell phone accessory can match my accessories.  The photo really does NOT do it justice.  I am afraid I'll break it off, but it's so pretty.  This is not a dime-store charm for small kids, it's jewelry.  If I do break mine, I'll cry & order another one.

I love them, some days you don't want to wear your fine jewelry.

Let me start out be saying I LOVE this seller and can attest to the gold layered items lasting much longer than other sellers, some still look nice after several years, no kidding.

I originally gave this 1-star because of the size being too big (for me), but that was my fault, not the product, so based on the quality I must be fair and raise it to 4-stars. I will likely return this, because it is too big, but that doesnt mean someome else doesnt want this size. Just realize how big of a jump this is from 4mm or even 5mm, it is MUCH bigger than 5mm.

Go for 5mm MAX in this style of chain or you will not get the look you're wanting if you're a man and not rocking dirty clothes with blue hair in middle school. 4mm is probably best which is noticeably thicker (almost twice) than a 2.5mm which is a stadard dog tag style chain. I have 4mm in real rose gold and the 3mm in gold layered (available from this seller - 5star item for sure), though I wanted to go a little bigger and try a 5mm which I had never seen in person, though a 14kgl in 5mm is simply eluding me, so I tried the 6mm.

This 6MM peice looks silly, think cheap party beads or something an emo or punk rock girl would wear. It looks much bigger than 6mm and should be named JUMBO bead chain or EXTRA LARGE bead chain, like other 6mm bead chains are apparently called (found this out post purchase). It is made very well though, if thats the look you want? Huge candy raver / but-rock beads, in a lengthy yellow gold chain? ....cough. :-?

I couldn't find a 5mm anywhere on Amazon, trying to move up from a 4 to something a bit bigger. Oh man did I ever get a nasty suprise when I excitedly opened this package.

The "dog tag" style clasp puts the tackiness level over the top. A normal clasp is a must if you want one of these style chains and want it to look upscale/player, instead of candy raver. ALSO, go for moon-cut if you can find it, which also greatly gives a much more classy appearance, instead of a juvenile rock n roll look. No moon cut is perfectly fine on 3mm and under peices. To note, I thought the moon cut would look feminine when I first decided to look into this style of chain, though it absolutely does not, quite the opposite actually.

This thing is 2 to 3 times as wide as my 4mm beaded chain. If you need a peice that can be worn daily and want beads/balls, Thug Fashion has one in 3mm that is also gold layered and will last even with daily wear for years, which is something I can't say for ANY non solid gold or 1/20 14kGF gold chain, though again, keep the lobster clasp in mind, a lobster clasp for a bead chain is a must, at least for myself, though IMO, the 3mm from Thug Fashion (without the lobster clasp), looks just fine, actually really good.

Beautiful earrings. They were a bit bigger than what I expected but still good to go. I loved them. I'm in-between jobs so a little pricey for me at the moment. I'd rather buy quality over quanity and they seemed to be of good quality. This type of earring has a wire attached to one side, you slide the wire through your piercing and then press that wire in to a prong fitting to lock it in place. You can see what I'm talking about in the picture. Obviously I don't know what this style is called. I've worn  this type before. I am always very careful to make sure both earrings are locked into their notches. I purchased these earrings a few months ago. They were so nice I decided to wait until a (Holiday) party, which happened last night. I put the earrings on then double, triple checked that they were locked. The earrings hang so they swing a little like they should. Again, I had locked them tight. I walk across the parking lot  to my car. I drive on. At the first light, a block away, I check my reflection in my visor mirror and....one of the earrings is gone! Of course, I went right back to look for it. I even recruited  hapless strangers walking by to aid me with my search. Out come the flashlights..it can't be found. I'm upset. I get another pair and go to my party. A major topic of the evening, earring malfunctions. This rarely, if ever, happens to me. I did throw out a pair of black Tahitian pearls cleaning out my pockets where I had stupidly put in my pocket for safe keeping so I'm not saying I have a perfect record, but lose one, no, I guess it was my turn. Now I'm stuck with one earring and out $60 bucks. Even after all this I'm tempted to buy them again. What are the chances that the loose lock problem has been solved?
