I decided against it. Thanks for y'all's help!

Of course I'd LOVE to pay $5 for an akoya bracelet! LOL

Actually I was thinking about buying it but didn't know what was a fair bidding price. It's Goodwill so the starting bid was only like $5.

That would be practically impossible to do because they're on auction through Goodwill.

Pretty sure these are akoyas. It's a 7-in bracelet with 24 6mm pearls and a stamped 14K yellow gold clasp. The clasp is a bit dented but not majorly. I hope I attached that right.

Wow! I figured they were Chinese freshwaters again! Thanks for your expertise!

Oh, I forgot to add the clasp is 14K yellow gold, and it is marked as such.

I saw these for auction on eBay and was just curious as to what y'all's opinions are. The current bid is $18.50, which doesn't quite make sense if they're really akoyas. However, they are vintage, but I still thought they would cost at least several hundred bucks. I'm not buying them. Just...

Actually I'm immediately returning them when they arrive. I decided no matter how pretty they are, I don't need them. I just wanted them. I need to hang on to my money. Thanks for your help, though.

I want real but can only afford fake or cheap real. Actually I couldn't even afford these, but they were so pretty I couldn't resist ... especially for the price. And I'm a doofus when it comes to pearls (obviously).

I have a set of faux pearls for every day wear. Not much different than these, sounds like. Meaning value wise there's no difference between faux pearls and this kind.

Nah, I won't be looking anymore, but thanks!

OK, thanks!

Could these be akoyas, maybe?
