The best way to buy designer jewelry at discounted prices is at private sales or sample sales. One of the perks of shopping at a private or sample sale is knowing that you are likely to find jewelry pieces that are one of a kind or at least not sold in mass merchandise stores. If the prices of the pieces are not deeply discounted, they will at least be sold at wholesale prices.

Private sales are usually attended by invitation only and by loyal customers or those that a designer would like to see in their clothes. Some of these sales may also be set up in a person's home for groups of people. At these sales, one of a kind and pieces not found at retail stores will be available for purchase. There are websites online who have information about these sales available for loyal customers of theirs too. These sales can take place online for a set period of time during which shoppers can purchase pieces of jewelry at deeply discounted prices.

Sample sales usually take place at the end of a shopping season when retailers have inventory left over and they therefore want to sell it off before the next shopping season begins. During a sample sale, merchandise that was used during that season's campaign for commercials or promotions ads will be sold off as well. So, if you have had your own on a particular piece of jewelry or wondered where you could purchase the pieces you saw on ads, you may be able to purchase that piece at these sales. You may also be able to pick up the pieces at significant discounts. Some sample sale information can be also be found online. There are websites who hold their own sales of samples exclusively for their followers including jewelry pieces and apparel.

If you are in the market to purchase designer jewelry, consider shopping at a sample sale or a private sale online. Shopping through these two sales will almost guarantee that the pieces will be sold at significant discounts simply because they are being sold at the end of a shopping season or because they were pieces used in ads. Many times, the pieces sold will not be found in mass merchandise retail stores which gives you a better opportunity to purchase one of a kind or one of a few made.
