Go to a brick and mortar jewelry store, everything is 100% off.

  100% off is free, no matter what the base price is, so that's clearly not true. (Though, oddly, it's not uncommon online, with a “just pay (inflated) shipping and handling charge” proviso.)

    I mean, if you go into a jewelry store with a gun and declare that everything is free you can get everything for 100% off (probably just the one time, though). Can't do that with jewelry on Amazon.

Maybe not even that; they are obvious targets, and as such precautions are common. http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2001-05-08/news/0105080275_1_jewelry-store-hostage-standoff-alarm http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2001-05-08/news/010508027... > Can't do that with jewelry on Amazon. You can try, once you learn where the fulfillment warehouse is.

    The guy meant 100% of the new price off from the old price. It's a bit of a reverse temporal brain fart, but it is a valid statement. For some reason I just instinctively knew that this is what he meant.

      Hey, any reason to downvote someone into oblivion is a cause worth fighting for. - Someone with too much time and too much karma.
