Well, I was going to go to the boutique to pick it up, but just didn't make it there this weekend as it's over an hour trip...so I ordered it online...

...decided to go with the RTT heart lock! I'll post pics as soon as she arrives :)

I must say, I was a bit surprised by the cheapest shipping rate of $15! I guess that price includes the blue box and ribbon!

Whoever posted a pic of part of their collection, what size is that Elsa Peretti heart? Is it the small? I'm still drooling over it and may end up getting that, too!
 
Wow, I knew their jewelry was a rip off, but do they have to kill you on shipping too? That's just kicking you when you're down, in my opinion. The box and ribbon is free when you buy it in the store, it costs them pennies. The shipping is also free if you buy it in the store and need it to be sized down. They'll ship it to your residence at no charge instead of you having to pick it up at the store.

What they charge for silver is so outrageous. I just bought Movado earrings in 18k white gold with about 2 carats of hand-set pave diamonds and 8mm blue topaz stones from the Movado boutique the other day. The cost? $600! That's the same price as the silver Tiffany heart link bracelet I had purchased with the one tiny gold heart and then returned.

I'm much happier with gold and diamond earrings than a silver bracelet. :tup: I like when my money goes a lot farther.

Did you get the regular RTT heart long or did you get the one with the little key attached?

I got the RTT heart lock. Seemed like a good choice for my first piece :)

I was a bit shocked at the $15 shipping rate...but I paid it. So I guess they figure if they can get away with it, they will. But, had I drove down to the boutique I might have paid close to that amount in gas.

I know what you mean about paying so much for silver. Seems a little silly, but it's Tiffany. You're paying for the name! I definitely wouldn't base my entire collection around it, but it'll be nice to have something from Tiffany :)
 
Yeah, I would do what you did and order something that's not so expensive, for less than $200 or so. I don't think many of their products are worth it, especially when the price goes through the roof when they add a sprinkle of precious metal or stones.
