Solid vs Hollow chains

Apparently I still get dms, emails, comments and text about the difference between hollow and solid, some depending on their price range I offer hollow and for some reason they assume hollow is not gold, I guess for some it's their first time buying a gold chain so it's understandable, so here I will break it down for everyone who still have doubt. Basically we carry both 14k gold hollow chains (meaning lighter chains) and solid gold chains (exactly what that is solid more heavier) to satisfy customers needs and budget, obviously if u can go solid then great for those ballin on a budget hollow works well too, affordable, wont break your piggybank and still look good nothing wrong with that just don't have your girl pull on it when having that rough foreplay 😁 with that said enjoy the vid and leave a comment what you think and what else you wanna see posted, dont forget to follow my ig: TommyJewels88 for oldschool, vintage and classic pieces... it's 2017 but classic never dies!

Have had a hallow Cuban for a couple years. Still shines like new, not once have I ever had a problem with it, and cost a fraction of the price of the solid. No regrets on my end... you couldn’t tell the difference unless you walked up and felt the weight.

Yay!! I guessed {😏before you put them on the scales!}. I can tell by the weight!

[@kid4375]

For everyone wishing they could afford a gold chain or something fancy, think of it like this. To make 100,000$ all you have to do is sell a 1000$ item, 100 times. What that item is, and legality is up to you... a LB of cannabis is generally more than 1K on the streets... money is all a game and the game can be played. Even if you gotta hit a lil finesse on someone making big bank.. they won’t fail from a small loss, and that small loss to them can be your big gain in the end.. I’m not condoning or encouraging anything, just stating money comes and money goes, all a large game.

[@codyyeager2740]

Ppl who keep saying buy solid buy solid are people that probably dont even own a chain. A hollow 4mm 22inch rope chain around 700 bucks so how are you gonna tell me thats a piece of shit. Also i have a hollow chain rose gold with diamond cuts and is just as good as a solid chain. Just not as much gold....

Buy what you can afford. I personally would rather wait a little longer and buy solid. But I'm also more active than most so solid to me is more sturdy. I also look st it as something to pass on to my children.
