This is my updated photo now. The two charms at each end are the latest ones. On the left the daisy one to represent being a Mum (everyone picks daisies for their Mum), dog one to represent the family boxer dog's 8th birthday in March. Going over to the right the end one is to celebrate selling my photos on fotolia and the next one in represents a I, my hubbie's initial and who has just had a birthday.

Everyone's bracelets are looking gorgeous! Wicket2005, I love your new gemstone charm..... It's gorgeous!

When we went out for lunch today the woman taking our payment had a Pandora on so I commented on how nice it looked, and then she asked to see my bracelet.... We were chatting about charms whilst Robert looked utterly clueless!

Thanks Bob, I love it too. Ran out of funds now (again) so back to selling things.

I went to have a look at some bracelets and I was surprised at how dainty they were. They look so huge in the photos here that I though they were much bulkier

I have some money in my Paypal account so I wanted to get a couple of charms from E-bay but I'm wary after reading about the fake one. Could anyone recommend an e-bay seller who they think / knows sells genuine charms?

Wow Bev - your bracelet is looking fab. You got lots of new ones.

It was me that bought the fake (thankfully I got all my money back), TBH I really don't think it's worth the hassle of buying them on ebay at the moment as they all seem to sell for the price that you can buy them from the online retailers anyway. I have even seen some of them sell for £5 + more than what you can buy them for elsewhere.

I normally wouldn't bother but my Paypal account is linked to my US bank account and as the exchange rate is so bad I thought I might as well use the money in there to buy charms rather than send it over to the UK

Oh I see what you mean. All I can suggest is check there feedback score & make sure they have had lots of activity on the ebay account for at least a year. Also read feedback to check it's recent & relates to selling charms.

It really is hit & miss though as I did all of the above & still got conned.

I cannot recommend an EBay seller and to be honest I wouldn't buy any from EBay as it is such a popular item it is open to abuse.

I can recommend mememe accessories, John Greed and Ernest Jones who I have bought from online and as Claire mentions in this thread you can get cashback using Quidco for mememe and Ernest Jones.

Thanks Claire. I still need more, need being the word like any addiction. You buy one and immediately want another one.

Looking at buying either the dangly tulip or flower charm to represent Easter unless they bring out some more by April.

In the meantime, looking at more spacers and clips now but need cash first. One minute I have it the next minute it is gone. These bracelets are getting quite valuable when you tot the price up.

I think I might forget about e-bay then. Surprisingly enough the charms are actually slightly cheaper here in Ireland (that must be a first )


One thing I forgot to ask is if any one wears the bracelet all the time?

No, I wear different sets of jewellery each day as I cannot stand things not being used. I will wear the bracelet on a special day though as well as on the Pandora day.

I've just ordered my first bracelet and charms I've gone for

The A is for DS the N is for DD and I got the dog as it reminds me of the Target dog and I love shopping there when we are in Florida I ordered them from the US and got all 4 items for about 20 Euros more than I'd pay for just the bracelet here in Ireland. Thanks to a tip from Claire I'm going to use my Paypal funds at John Greed to get these

The Bear is for DS as he loves teddies, the T-shirt is for DD as she loves fashion and the Ghost / Pumpkin are for the first MNSSHP we went to last year. I'll post a picture of them on the bracelet when they all arrive

We have just got back from a trip into Reading where we came across a pandora stockist and my hubby bought me this as an early Anniversary Pressie

I am so chuffed and cant wait to fill my bracelet

 

[Pinky166]

Tinktatoo - That's fab!!! I am glad you managed to order so much. Can't wait to see your piccie when it arrives.

Rachel - That is excellent!!!! Is hubby going to let you wear it now or have you got to wait until your anniversary? What is the charm on the left, I can't quite make out which one it is?

 

[beckypenguin]

My lovely Hubby has let me have it early, he would only let me have a couple of charms now as i think he wants to choose some for our anniversary

The charm on the left is a tiny little treasure chest with a heart on the back , I just loved it when i saw it


I think hubby is a bit worried now i have found a store in Reading
