The Truth about "Wholesale"...
One very important thing that's constantly misunderstood by people trying to start a home business on the Internet is the word Wholesale.

Many people think that working with real wholesale suppliers means that they will magically be able to sell products for less than anybody else on the planet, for ever and ever. They'll be the only one who ever gets such good prices, and they'll earn millions because no competition can touch them. They retire, and buy a big house in Beverly Hills, complete with a butler, and the whole works!

Then they realize they may actually have to compete with companies who have more buying power and get better prices, and suddenly the dream's over. They run around crying that the supplier is not a real wholesaler, and is a cheat. The sky is falling, and  all their dreams are being blown away by BAD people who 'falsely' claimed to be wholesalers. The fact is that they've realized a perfectly normal aspect of retail sales that they had not anticipated, and need to learn.

As a small business owner, you should remember to choose comparison areas carefully. Many people simply go to the big search engines and look for the absolute lowest price on earth, and then give up on selling that item if they can't beat it. That's the wrong approach. You need to be comparing prices against sites that will be seen in the same places that your site will be seen, and even if your prices are higher, you can bring in sales by building a clean, focused site. Alternatively, you can simply sell the models that others are NOT selling. After you begin to earn some profit, you can then start to buy and stock the better sellers in quantity, lowering your price, if you really want to.

Even then, you're going to run into stores that stock a lot of merchandise, and are getting price breaks on greater quantities. This allows them to sell at a lower price. Sell models that they don't, from the same brand names. You don't have to purposely go head-to-head with the big superstores.

Some Jewelry History and How-To's:
As with gold, good surface preparation is required to provide a clean surface for quality electroplating. The following practice is recommended:

Electrolytic cleaning
Rinse in demineralised water
Check surface wettability (no formation of droplets)
Dip piece in aqueous solution of sodium cyanide (35 g/l)
Rinse in running water or demineralised water
Dip in electrolyte with power on (do not touch) & electroplate
Rinse and dry.

Plating should take from 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on thickness desired. Inert anodes of platinum are used at 4-5 cm distance with a surface area at least as big as the cathode. The bath should be well agitated or stirred.
