dragonette - have you ever seen the Firefly series? I think that's my favorite. I was never a big sci-fi person until that & the newer Battlestar Galactica. Now I'll pretty much watch anything. I thought I'd get into Star Trek since I loved the movie so much but there's got to be 10,000 hours worth of ST stuff and I need a chart or something to know how the order goes, lol. And your seller sent you GREAT extras!!

Tot - congratulations on having a boy!! And thanks :D I think I'm just mad at Juicy for making such a poor version of one of my favorite childhood things. I saw a two-story carousel in France a few years ago and it was tdf.. I wish Juicy would make a full miniature carousel.

Tup I'm sending big hugs back - your little girl to be will probably come out super active if she's already wearing you out. ;) I hope you get the gumdrop situation worked out.. $109 is nothing to sneeze at and she better work with you to refund you, especially if she dared to describe it as new. And I signed up for the eBay bucks thing.. I only have like $11 though!

PP - how cute is a baked potato with pink butter?!

GLL Oh. My. Gosh. I have to keep myself away from the Wii because I get hooked in easily. If you like games like The Sims you should check out the MySims games and Animal Crossing. I also like Carnival Games a lot. As far as Wii Fit games, I only have the one that came with the board (I'm addicted to Hula Hoop), and Gold's Gym Cardio Workout to learn how to throw a proper punch. ;) Apparently I have a nice right hook! You should look into a silicone cover for the board though, because it's a pain to clean if anything gets on it.

LV did you get your cherries straight from Juicy's or another store (Nordie's, etc)? I called my Juicy store and they didn't have them in yet, but did have unpacked shipments. My SA said she'd call me back if it was in there.. I probably seem like a rabid charm-eating animal to them.

Pinkie - welcome! I purposely stay out of the Bal forum because I'd be setting myself on a very steep downward slope if I started looking at all of the photos over there. Your charms look great on your bags!

Luvmysheps - oh my gosh! How cute is that pig? I have the regular enamel version but I agree, Juicy needs to make a pink pig.

Sweetwon, thanks. :heart:

SheSaid
- :rofl: I can only imagine what other people thought when they heard that you had tiny chairs in your bag, as if it were a code for something! I like the idea of the bears on the chairs, though!

Notoriousliz, Vlady, QueenCatherine
- thanks :heart:

Watk, Anotheremptysky, Puka, Elisabeth, Jen, Dusty, dolllover, espresso and anyone else I may have missed (I don't mean to), I hope you guys are having a nice week. :)

I kind of like the ballerina.. the no-face bit doesn't bother me, as it's Tim-Burtonish and I like his work. However the giant crystals are tacky and the back of the skirt needs to be finished off just the same as the front. Hopefully they'll rework it some more before/if releasing it.

Regarding the carousel horse, I don't want to put anyone off of it. LV is right - it would make a great, regular crazy horse, or even a good circus horse. But as a carousel horse it just doesn't work all the way around.
 
Cedes- I got my cherries from one of my Nordie's. It was a really out of the way one, which is probably why they had them. Almost no one goes to that store and if they do I can almost guarantee they don't buy the more high end stuff. :p

vlady- madbargains is ok, very business minded though, so you can't really budge on their prices.
 
here are my new charms that arrived yesterday (got the chance to take pics today.)

my Mom, who passed away a couple of yrs ago, LOVES elephants.. so when I saw this.. I HAD TO HAVE IT! :love:

this silver horseshoe is so pretty! I wonder if the gold version is as striking as the silver one :wondering

question re the boxes, what does the colors mean? Like the brown boxes-- are they just regular boxes vs the pink/silver combo boxes? I think the gold boxes are just for LE charms, right?

The prices seem fair I just wondered about whether or not the charms were authentic. They have a no return policy and I was warned not to buy on eBay if:
seller used stock photos, blurry pics, no return policy,etc...
Thank you for the answer:tup:
 
TCC- Congrats!! I like the silver version of the charm, does it have the turquoise stones on the back like the gold one does?

As for the boxes...it's odd but this is the general idea:
Gold charms: Black box/blue terry lining, brown box/pink terry lining
Silver colored charms: Hot pink box/pink lining
Sterling Silver charms: Silver box/pink terry lining



vlady- No problem! I just remember GLL mentioning they weren't very nice. At least I'm pretty sure she was talking about madbargains.
 
vlady- I personally have never had a problem with madbargains and they are considered a reputable seller of authentic JC items. Hopefully this doesn't change in the future. Tup and i recently bought our peguses from them without any problem.
 
I might have to break down eventually and buy one of the pegasus charms from them if they have any by the time I want one.
They're the only ones I trust anymore since they have the old boxes and specifically say it's not the mini one. I definitely don't plan on paying $90 for one from someone else, only to get it and find out it's the mini one.
 
^^ You should go for it! Granted, I find it weird that they have so many of the Pegasus charms, I'm just assuming they bought a ton or found a ton somewhere. I've purchased many charms from them and haven't a problem. You're right though, super business minded. Which I guess can be a good thing!

Cedes - So glad that Charm Candy is back up! I've missed you and missed it so!

TCC -Congrats on your new charms!

I found a snowglobe on Bonanzle which I think is a great price original box w/receipt $139.99!

Anyone that's been looking for that charm I think that's definintely the cheapest I've seen it offered in a LONG time. The seller also has the film projector reel and several other charms up.

Other than that there are a few other charms on Bonanzle like the LE CZ Heart Charm for $49.99, which is pretty decent, considering one sold not too long ago for over $100!
 
dolllover-Thank you and I hope you and Tup both enjoy the Pegasus charms!! They're beautiful!!:love:

Lvbabydoll-Madbargains does have the Pegasus charm right now for $99!!

Got to go, "grandma" needs one more walk before we go both to bed!! Goodnight everyone!!:sleepy:
 
Tup and vlady- Thanks! I'll have to mull it over. I've done some damage lately with my unexpected purchases (whale, cherries, pretzel, panda)! :nuts:
Goodnight, vlady!

Aww, the seller of that snowglobe is one of us and is a very trusted seller!! I had gotten my pumpkin and milkshake charms from her!:yes:
 
^^ Yes! Plus I think it's a great deal. All other snowglobes are listed at $300+. And how often do you find an older charm in perfect condition and with it's original box? If I hadn't gotten my snowglobe earlier I would have snatched that up in a heartbeat! I hope someone else who's been looking for it snags it! =)

Goodnight vlady!

The gumdrop seller seems to be willing to work with me, so let's hope all goes well! Plus, that I can find another gumdrop for under $125... wishful thinking. Hey. maybe I'll find the white rabbit for cheap!

Goodnight everyone else! I'm off to dream about charms!
