buying. Possibly, you only buy commodities as gifts for others.>

As I think you know, Glenn, I agree with you 100%. That is why I never buy from the Lands End or LL Bean catalogues, even though their stuff looks great. "But will it fit me? What does the fabric really feel like? How well is it really made?" Yes, that is why I stick with the Nordstrom brand, but even then, I must personally check it out before I buy.

So is it still too early to tell, or is this shaping up as a good holiday season in the jewelry (spelling ok? :)) business?
