During this time of economic hardship, some businesses have ended up being effected harder than others. One type of business which has been hit rather hard are jewelery stores. With the tighter economy, on-line sales, and larger retailers, smaller jewelery stores which are often operated by the jeweler themselves are being driven into a situation where many are closing their doors. Despite the quality of the fine jewelery produced by these shops, demand has decreased since 2007, leading to a long stretch of declining sales. Combined with the overall economic slump, shoppers in general have lost interest in jewelery, favoring to hold onto money for the simple matter of ‘just in case’. Even though there is a decline in jewelery sales, a market remains for people who wish to have jewelery work in general done upon their jewelery. Some jewelery stores have even seen an increase in sales in the form of resetting gems and having jewelery repaired. Mainly, this increase has taken place due to people having a lack of desire to buy something new, and are instead opting to maintain what they already have. Even with the market for jewelery repair work, there is still a considerable impact which has been caused by the drop in consumer spending, which has led to a considerable slump in the jewelery business over all. Despite these hard times, jewelery store owners still want to sell their merchandise, or at least clear out their current stocks, often with workers who wish to ’stay in til the end’.
