Sure as you're alive everybody in the transac- tion is happy except the middleman that was left out and in these days of intense excitement who gives rap about the spoor" middeman? And why shouldn't everybody be happy? The man who sold the diamond had the good of the diamond for twelve years. paid him profit on the original cost. I got my small profit and Mr. New Owner saved a big percentage. These are the reasons why am the leading dia- mond broker of the Southwest. That's why l sell more diamonds than any other diamond estab- lishment in the southwest.
 So still want to buy more diamonds NOW and I'll pay the highest CASH price and then I'll sell em for from 5 per cent to 50 per cent below the market

ABE
Here's Your Answer:
 ! Buy Direct From the Owner

If the individual owner to sell his diamond to some dealer or jewery company who in turn canvassed the trade and eventually sold the stone to me I would have to pay the dealers cost of the stone plus his profit and THEN add another profit for myself, to find the selling price I'd have to get.
 Isn't it Simple Them
 to know how pay the highest cash price to local people and yet sell at 5 per cent to 50 per cent less than ordinary prices
 A man bought diamond 12 years ago. Today he wants to sell it. If he tries here and there he'll get perfunctory offers of small amounts Hesees me, I offer him the proper price. It's the highest CASH price he can get. invite him to try and secure as good price elsewhere He can't do it. The diamond on the value today is worth much more than when it was bought bought it for the HIGHEST CASH price procur- able Isell it at small margin of profit. Ihave my profit. The purchaser has saved B per cent to 50 per cent
