IN THE LATEST EPISODE of Over the Counter, host Kyle Bullock tells the story of one of the most memorable custom-design sales of Sandra Locken of Sarini Fine Jewellery in Vulcan, Alberta, Canada.

In the heartbreakingly beautiful tale, Sandra is assigned a rush job for a woman dying of terminal cancer, whose passion in her final days (and even her final minutes) is creating jewelry memories for her family.

Kyle concludes: “Remember that what we do in the jewelry business goes far beyond little hunks of metal. We are invited to share in the expression of people’s hearts and souls in a very real, very emotional, and very honest way.”

Enjoy the story. (And have those tissues ready.)

Wilkerson Takes the Worry Out of Closing

MSG Jewelers has always treated its customers like family. When owner Mike George decided to retire and close the doors of his St. Louis, Missouri jewelry store, he selected a company to manage his going-out-of-business sale that treats its customers like family, too. That’s why he chose Wilkerson. “Wilkerson was able to do all the things that we needed,” says George. In the end, the bittersweet store closing was so much easier with Wilkerson at the helm. From marketing to pricing to inventory, Wilkerson does it all. “It’s a package deal,” says George.
