No matter what you may need jewelry wholesale supplies for, there are a variety of sources for obtaining them. However, in most cases, you will
find the least expensive supplies through online sources. This is due to the fact that you literally have the whole world of jewelry wholesale supply
sources at the touch of a button – and those companies are all in competition with each other.
Whether you are looking for stones, crystals, beads, catches, or other supplies and tools, you can find everything you are looking for online – at
really great prices. You can order the supplies directly, or request a catalog from hundreds of different suppliers. In many cases, when you place
an order, you will be put on the mailing list, and you will automatically receive the catalog periodically without having to ask for it.
You should never pay for the catalog. Avoid sites that ask for payment to receive the catalog, or sites that require you to pay for membership. You can expect, however, to be required to register at the sites that you do business with – at no charge. It is also important to check the refund and exchange policies for each site that you do business with.
If you have any doubts as to the legitimacy of an online business, check them out with the BBB online. If there have been any complaints, the BBB
will have a record of it, and that information is available to the public at no charge.
eBay is another option. You can find a wide variety of jewelry wholesale supplies through these auctions, but eBay cannot be depended on as a
steady supplier. When you do find supplies that you wish to bid on or purchase through eBay, make sure that you check the seller’s rating and
feedback before making the bid or purchase!
If shopping online makes you really uncomfortable, there are other ways to find jewelry wholesale supplies. Locate the various companies online, and then call them directly to place your order over the phone, or for instructions for mail orders. You can find the contact information for most companies on the website where it says ‘contact us’ or ‘about us.’
You can also purchase your supplies through discount stores in your area. However, you should be aware that you will not be paying wholesale
prices. You will be paying discounted retail prices. Wholesale prices are much cheaper – especially when you make purchases in bulk quantities.
