It costs $17 as of last week. It's open until the store in Japan closes. I'm not sure of the hours, but we went at 4ish and it was open and busy.

It costs extra if you want them to set it for you.

I am so excited about this thread!! I have been to Disney a million times yet somehow we have never done this. I told DF that since our next trip will be our Disneymoon, this would be a great wedding gift for me

I just thought I would share my experience, as my husband and I just got back.

The cost was 17.00 to pick a pearl. You need to pick a pearl before you pick a setting (or, at least, that is what I was told). So, you pay to pick a pearl first and then go back and pick a setting and then pay for the cost of the setting. I want to say the settings ranged from 22.00 and up (but please don't quote me on this).

Beware, it can take up to an hour to do the setting (and that varies on how busy it is, I believe). So, don't go as you about to leave.

Also, I was told I couldn't wear the pearl straight away. It had to set for 24 hours. And they charge you .50 for a box, so if you don't want to pay that, you may want to bring your own box/jewerly bag/etc.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Seriously go look at my posts and some of the pieces I have put up that I got. They are so lovely. I could have had ANYTHING I wanted for my 25 anny gift from my DH and I asked him to pick a pearl for me and a setting to remember our trip. It was perfect! I posted the cost somewhere on here but if memory (feeble memory!) serves me, I have two gorgeous necklaces with hand chosen pearls for less than 150.....well worth it and I am always asked where I got them..... The funny part is....I really don't like pearls! Now give me a pick a diamond or sapphire place.........

I was also there about 2 weeks ago and couldn't believe they were nickle and diming $0.50 for a box!!! I know that in May 2009 and previous to that, there was no charge for a box. And this is a small white cardboard box.

Too bad it is so much fun to pick a pearl and they have us hooked to keep going back!

I think they also need to change up the settings once in a while.

Have fun picking your pearl!!!

Thats how I was feeling, but I figured it's only 50 cents I might aswell, I didn't want it danaged whilst we walked around

I thought it was funny that they were trying to sell me a box because when you pick up your pearl, they have it in a small plastic bag and then put it in a box (at no extra charge). The box isn't a jewelry type box but a box nevertheless.

Must be due to guest demand!!

Hey just got back from my honeymoon at wdw and I got to do pick a pearl finally! so here are some photos from my experience.

it is a 7 1/2

I decided on a necklace.

 

[disgram]

Shippedtosea, this is beautiful! Is it gold or can you get a silver necklace, too?

its actually silver. I guess the lighting in my apartment is bad. I think it is also so shiny it is picking up the reflection of my skin haha. I think it only came in silver.

Do you mind my asking how much the setting cost?

 

[Lorilais_mommie]

I was wondering if anyone found the mickey cages yet?????
My DD would really like one...

 

[phyllis1966]

Awesome! I was just talking to DD and DH about this a few weeks ago. She's just turned 11 and I was thinking that for our next trip to WDW in November, she'd be old enough to appreciate picking her own pearl. We've been to WDW quite a few times and have never seen this going on, although I'd heard about it a few years ago.

Can't wait to give it a try! Thanks for all the great info. in this thread.

Before our trip (which was last week ) I bought one of the Cinderella carriage pearl cages from Ebay. Good news: I picked my pearl, it is beautiful and BIG. Bad news: It doesn't fit in the cage.

When I got back to our resort, I tried to put the pearl in the cage, nope, it didn't fit. I think, I am going to go get it put in something nicer anyway, but I just love the carriage, its so unique.

Well, you just need to pick another pearl for your coach cage ! One can never have too many "pick a pearls" in my opinion !

We go next week for a 9 day stay and my DD and I are already plotting our stops !

You're right, I will just keep trying, until I pick the perfect one! Gives me more reasons to plan a future trip!
Have an Awesome Trip!
