Very suspicious, the man asked her to show two items but after she put the 2nd item on the table, he quickly left without even looking at it.

Yes, that is what they intended to do but failed, they will try the same trick in the next jewelry shop
Pretty neat how they pulled that off! It's like something out of a movie.
