Teresa DeVer commented on Connie Mettler's group Jewelry Genies
"HI - I live in the chicagoland area and am in the process of changing out all my displays.  I have several gently used displays (some maybe a little more used) that I am looking to sell at a fraction of the cost.  Most of the displays are…"

"Robin, Thank you so much for the info!!  So kind of you to share!  You've definitely given me something to think about before shelling out thousands of dollars on a Dynamic Display system!"

"Lindsay, I bought plastic break apart shelves from Walmart. Super cheap. One unit made those two tables. The "fabric" is actually RV carpeting from Costco and attached by velcro. It's made from recycled plastic bottles and…"

"I have just returned from The Buyers Market. I saw a number of exhibitors with Abstracta set ups so I think that is the way I will try."

"I am also torn between the Dynamic Display System and Abstracta.  Robin - out of curiosity - would you mind sharing where you found your plastic shelving units?  They look like a less expensive alternative to the other options.…"

"I made some easy assembly tables from plastic break-apart shelving and RV carpeting. The tops are solid aspen panels which add weight. I use the inside shelf for storage. As long as they are inside the tent, wind doesn't bother them. At the…"

"I'm wondering the same thing:  I need display cases and don't know whether to go Abstrata or Dynamic (I'm going to have to check out Armstrong).  I have never used any of them, and am also concerned about the same thing.…"

Suzanne McNenly replied to Teresa DeVer's discussion Dynamic Display Systems for Jewelry - do you have them?
"Hi.  Luckily, I can also address the Abstracta issue.  I used it before I got my Dynamic Display.  I used to do jewelry, so I did have a larger Abstracta setup, then as I lessened that I used less and less, and always in different…"

"thanks robin, diane and suzanne for your replies.  I am still agonizing over the decision.  If I knew these displays were sturdy and held up well in all kinds of weather - I would probably endure the extremely high cost, but so far I am…"

Suzanne McNenly replied to Teresa DeVer's discussion Dynamic Display Systems for Jewelry - do you have them?
"I have one double Dynamic Display that I use as a cash desk.  I love it, but can't imagine it would hold up well if buffetted by high winds.  I use it indoors, or in my tent, so if it's in a tent it should be OK.  The top is…"

Diane Wright replied to Teresa DeVer's discussion Dynamic Display Systems for Jewelry - do you have them?
"Heck, I'm still using tables but I have looked into putting cases on armstrong folding desks or abstracta.  I like the dynamic displays but they sure are pricey.  I will probably do something soon and I am leaning toward the…"

Robin Ragsdale replied to Teresa DeVer's discussion Dynamic Display Systems for Jewelry - do you have them?
"I would love to use the Dynamic Display System, if I could afford it. It looks very professional and easy to transport. The ease of transport also leads me to think it isn't all that strong. I hope somebody who owns one chimes in! Robin…"

Dynamic Display Systems for Jewelry - do you have them?

I am considering upgrading from armstrong pedestals and desks to a dynamic display system.  Balking at the cost, of course - but see how these displays are much more professional.  My question is this - do they hold up well in storms?  With my armstrong display and glass cubes - I have lost two tents over 10 years - but have only lost a few pieces of glass (and they don't cost a lot to replace) and the armstrong desks and pedestals are indestructible.  Would be interested in hearing from anyone…See More

"Rick, thank you for sharing not only this story, but your solid faith.  You are correct, a life with Jesus as the foundation is what will stand firm, both in good times and bad times.  Praise God that His name will be lifted high in…"

I didn't know you were a member here.  There is an interesting post about jewelers going on.  I had no idea there were such feelings about different types of jewelry.  Got my coral necklace.  It is beautiful.  Thanks for having such a great sale.!!
