Guess the Retail; Win the Prize!

UPDATE: Congratulations to Natalie Chui! Natalie won the below bracelet with her guess of $58 retail. Be on the look out for our next giveaway!

I use a set formula to calculate the MerCurios wholesale and retail prices, and I'm currently in the process of reevaluating my formula. That's where you guys come in!

Guess the RETAIL price of this bracelet and WIN it! It's that simple! The first person to guess the correct retail price will win the prize, however, the contest will run the entire week.

Feel free to reference the MerCurios website to aid in guessing, however, keep in mind that I am reevaluating my formula AND the new collection is not yet listed. Now for the materials used...this bracelet is constructed of solid brass, ribbon & a cast brass charm.

Rules:
1. One entry per person please, left as a comment to this blog post.
2. Guess must be posted in US Dollars.
3. The contest will run from Monday, April 12 through Sunday, April 17, and the winner will be announced on Monday, April 18.

That's all there is too it!

Passage

The Key is symbolic of guardianship and passage. It represents knowledge, mystery, answers, curiosity, opening and closing. Think about it...one needs a "key" to open a locked door. Once the door is unlocked and open you may gain access or passage.

I have a very old skeleton key that belonged to my grandmother. I found the key lying around shorty after she passed away. I tried every lock in the house and the key did not open one door. I decided to keep it. It sits on my bureau at the feet of a statue of Naga Kanya.

Some folklore legends says that if you carry an extra key on your key ring you will always have the answers. ...I wonder if this is what that lock-less key was to my grandmother - symbolic of her intuition and always knowing the way.
