Guys, if you mention this discount to Anthony at Johnston Jewellers, you will definately recieve the same.

Also, dont want to be the bearer of bad news but the price of gold Pandora items will be going up by 25%. The items with part gold and silver will go up by less, around 10%.

These prices will be effective from 1st April. :crybaby::tdown::cursing:

Anthony's discount is better. He is also a sweetie.
Well Pandora charms seem to go up a bit more each year $27 in 2007 $30 in 2008 so it stands to reason it is going to be about $33 this year. for the silver ones.
Maybe it I'll have to wait a bit longer for my gold charms.

ChocolateAlful and Gals, I need to correct my statement about the gold items.

They have will go up in cost by 25% to the sellers, and by about 20% to the customers.

Still a big increase.

I cant imagine who will be able to afford the gold stuff after the prices go up!!!!!

Anyway, anyone is welcome to layby at Johnstons if they want to lock in the current price before the 1st April.

If you particularly want a gold item to be ordered in before the 1st, it can be put aside for you for later.

Girls, tomorrow I get my very own Pandora bracelet.
My head was pulled in so many directions as to all the different ways to do this.

In some ways I felt like I really needed 2 or more bracelets to do what I need to!!!!

I started out with a silver bracelet (but am now thinking of the one with gold clasp because later it will be too expensive).

I started out wanting no gold and no colour just silver and maybe light pink.

But I ended up with a purple theme (purple enamel bead) and purple diamonte spacers, plus two tone beads. I just kept going back to the purple enamel bead and it felt so right.

So I chose 6 beads and 2 fixed beads.

Im not sure if I assembled it correctly as all the beads fit between the 2 fixed beads in one third of the bracelet. It feels sort of badly weighted this way????

But it is very pretty and will match everything I wear.

I havent officially recieved it yet...and may still change a few beads to more gold???
Pictures to come!!!!

OMG 20% is A BIG Hike!!! Is that just in australia cause the Aussie $ is sooooo bad????:tdown:

So much for doing myself a 2nd bracelet in 2 tone and Gold only- this makes it even more expensive and lets face it it is already too expensive!!!! Maybe i'll have a rethink. :crybaby:

Well apparently (this is the official story from the ladies who work for Pandora)....Pandora has been absorbing price increases for years and not passing them on.

Remember that it is very expensive and time consuming for Pandora and all the retailers to have any price change. All the printed material and stock desplays must be changed out. So Pandora cant really change the price everytime they may wish to because it is a huge endevour. As a result they probably try to factor in future price increases into the current increase. Plus, the prices for gold world wide have increased dramatically.

So, I dont know how they calculate the increase but apparantly it is based on many factors, one being that they have had a huge increase in their input costs for a few years now.

I know exactly what you mean Millymollymandy! Mine was brought to be added to as my children grow up but I can't wait that long!! I think I may end up with more than one! I am so envious of all of you that live close to stores. In the UK its hard to find shops that do them and although there is internet shopping I like the thought of being able to see the beads IRL! THIS IS A SICKNESS!!!!! lol. :rolleyes:

Hope someone could help me out here. I live in Japan, and I had written to Pandora to enquire about Pandora retailers in Japan. It was forwarded by their marketing department to their customer service person to revert back to me. So far, it has been 2 months and still no response! Anyone from Asia out here? Where do you get your Pandora beads and bracelets from?

Minda, its not nice that Pandora didnt respond to you.

As far as I know Pandora hasnt branched out to the Asian market. I could imagine the stir when it does one day!!!!!

To All Pandora Bead Fans......I'm really getting familiar with Pandor Beads, but I'm also coming across so many other brands. What is your honest opinion on Biagi Beads and how do they compare to Pandora size wise as well as quality? Any thoughts?

Hey girls!.. I received an email today from waterfall jewelers listing the pandora promotions for spring and I just thought I would share! If you order $25 worth of Pandora stuff on their site (waterfalljewelers.com) on March 27 and 28th, you get a free silver lobster clasp bracelet and you can upgrade to the beaded clasp for an extra $15... then it just gives a sneak peak of what each month will bring... it says April is a Pandora Umbrella.. May is a 1800Flowers gift card... and June is wine bottle charms and limited edition grape charms! I wonder what these wine and grape charms are?!!?!
