A: The loss of the jeweler * * *: 800+200= 1000 yuan.
Reasons: First, the jewelry owner lost a piece of jewelry worth 800 yuan; second, he gave it to the customer, 200 yuan. Although the boss paid 1000 yuan to the boss next door, this 1000 yuan was originally exchanged with the customer's 1000 yuan, and the jewelry boss did not use his own money before. Therefore, the jewelry store owner lost 1000 yuan.
