I don't own one, but I've been flirting with it for a while now. I think the only thing keeping me from buying it is the price. I just can't wrap my mind around it...almost $5K for a bracelet that is only made of gold? Plus, I am the type of girl who takes off ALL her jewelry before showering, sleeping etc...so I don't know how the love bracelet would work for me =(
HOWEVER, if my FH were to buy it for me as a gift, I'd gladly accept it! hehehe
 
I have one (rose gold) and love it!...I thought it would bug me not being able to take it off, but you don't even notice it's on...yes it's expensive but I think worth it. Wear it by itself for a more classic look, or chunk it up with lots of different bangles...good luck!
 
Ok guys so I got the size 17 last Friday in the mail. I tried it on way to small. It hurt the bone on the side of my wrist. It would slide up or down but barely. It fit more like a hand cuff (not that I would know)LOL! Anyway I put it right back in the large box that it came in and called the sa to tell her and to exchange for the size 18. The sa was not in so the manager helped me and said the 18 should fit better and put it on hold. I called my sa later and made sure she knew what was going on and that I would ship 17 back first thing Tues since Mon was a U.S. holiday. Well I emailed the sa to make sure she got it and she emails me back that it is really scratched and needs some time to figure out what to do! I emailed back what? It should not be scratched and I shipped it right back I only tried it on! I am so upset guys I am still waiting to hear back about exchanging for the 18. I can't believe this is happening:(
 
^^OK, this does not sound right? Where exactly are you ordering from? Even if there's surface scratches, just due to you putting on/taking off, they could be removed very easily....did the sa say they were going to ship out the 18? I would not let them bully you if the attempt is made.....they're not losing money, it's an even exchange and should be handled without any issues! Good Luck. You will love this bracelet once you get the right size, promise.
 
I ordered from a boutique in another state which I am thinking was a big mistake now. I should have just did it on the site. They have had my bracelet now since Friday and said they would call me today to let me know what they can do for me and I have not heard anything yet. The box they shipped in was huge and it was not secured down in it but they said to use orig. box. I am not sure if it may have happened then or what. I didn't scratch it I know that. I put it right back in the box. I am just sick about this:(
 
^^I would call first thing when they open in the a.m. and tell them that a resolution needs to be identified. There really is no reason, I can think of, why they would not be able to exchange out the bracelet for you. Explain what condition the interior box was in when it arrived. Be nice, be firm! Good luck and let us know how it goes.
 
That's terrible, I'm so sorry.

I would write down your key points on a piece of paper before you call. You only tried it on, there is no way you scratched it. It's a $4K bracelet, you want them to send the 18 today.
 
^^You're lucky because you just saved yourself a bucket of money, however, I absolutely love mine.......and I didn't say it was worth it "exactly" but I would buy another if I could.
 
Oh no, I didn't read down the thread to see you bought it and now are in a dispute. I am so sorry. Don't back down, if it wasn't scratched when you had it you are not responsible. Who did the shipping? If the store gives you trouble you might want to open a claim with the shipper's insurance. Or, you can contact your credit card company regarding a charge back if they won't exchange the bracelet. They can't bully you into keeping it.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Bagaday, I am not saying people shouldn't have them and love them. I just don't get it for myself. There are many things that we have that aren't really "worth" the money we spend on them. It really comes down to is it worth it to ... you.
