Hi Everyone

For those of you who are desperate to purchase one of the new 2009 beads I 'think' I have just discovered a seller from Germany who is offering part of the range - several of the gold 14k teddies, the lovely elephants, one of the gold beads, the silver knot and just one of the bi-colour clutch handbags/purses.

The seller goes by the name of bebexi24 and has an Ebay shop - MAGIC OF PANDORA. The items are listed under the shop details.

I have no previous knowledge of this seller and have never bought from them but thought some of you might like to take a look.

Happy hunting!

Girls, these photos give a different perspective to the beads which I thought was worth sharing. Although we all know the new beads now.
I think the elephant is adorable. I might get that for his little face alone. Reminds me of the Indian side of my family so has meaning to me.

Thank you for the pics:tup: I don't think that Pandora does a such great job in photographing their pieces. When I see the beads IRL, they look so much better. Littlesharon, maybe if we are interested in a bead you could take a photo? Or perhaps Pandora should just hire you to photograph their beads:woohoo:

Ha, you are too kind. My h. took the photos not me. I actually havent seen the beads irl. He took them in a hurry because I made him. LOL And I didnt think they were better or worse than any other photo. But I will tell him he did good!!!!

Girls I need some advice.

My new bracelet has a kink. :crybaby:

Do you think its because I had it too weighted with beads in the middle only and because it was too big?

Im ver sad because Ive only had it a day or two????

I would speak with the vendor and ask for a replacement. I filled up my bracelet a section at a time. I filled up the middle section first. I never had any kinking. Let us know what happens.

I found a store, Yaya's Boutique, that sells Pandora Charms online, and they have a great selection. They even carry some of the higher-end items like the this black pearl and diamond necklace, which is pretty.

Overall, prices on Pandora charms are $25 on up, which means they're a spurge item for me! I usually treat myself to a charm form something special, like when each of my kids was born, and when my business sold it's first piece. They're great for momentos like that!

My Mom had a problem with her new Christmas bracelet and the vendor replaced it. Her problem was with the clasp; she couldn't close it and come to find out it was faulty. Take you bracelet back ASAP;)

Good evening from the UK!! Oh my goodness, having looked at the Pandora charms last month while checking out some more charms for my Links of London bracelet I couldn't actually believe my boyf had picked up on my "oohs" and "aahs" - so imagine my suprise to receive a bracelet and 5 charms for Valentines!! The thing is.. I am now a fully fledged addict, buying 2 a week and I'm half full already! I've read all the posts here during work hours and think I am developing a real problem here!! Although if I'm mad then we're all in it together, lots of you have 2 or 3 on the go - hurrah! I need no further excuse! Off into town tomorrow to start on some two-tones - fancy the crown or queen bee. I do have one lil problem though which nobody else seems to have mentioned, I have the clasp ss 20cm bracelet and find it quite difficult to undo with my titchy nails - I can cope with that - but I had to take my first bracelet back last week as the "fixed" part of the chain connecting to the clasp was pulling the "circle" its fixed into away from the clasp. Not easy to explain I know but once shut there was a little lump coming out of the ball clasp, like I'd pulled too hard. Anyway, the sales lady was fab and swapped straight over, this ones doing it again today though!!!! I think I may be prising the clasp open too hard on one side - but I'm hardly heavy handled with it - quite the opposite in fact. Anybody else heard of this? I'm too embarassed to mention it to her again tomorrow - its hardly coincidence is it? I gave it a gentle nudge and its flush again for the minute. Hope to make a lot of Pandora Pals here, thanks for reading my very long first post x

Welcome to the Pandora OBSESSION! i became hooked from December and got my bracelet for Christmas. It is now officially full with room really only for a safety chain and another spacer.

I'm planning on getting the two tone bracelet now and adding all my gold AND two tone charms to it and finishing my original in silver.

I have been really really good, not buying anything new until the spring beads come out, but...I decided my black bracelet needed a new look and I went and got two new beads. I rearranged what I already had and now I love it all over again. I got 2 new yellow/orangish/golden glass ones. They are replacing a white glass bead and then just an addition. Now, it is officially finished!

Here is a question: What bead is your absolute favorite?

Mine used to be the Tree of Life, but now I think it is the flower saturn bead.

Dont be embarrest about the clasp thing. Could you show us photos of what you mean?

Also, if you might be doing something that is causing the problem, its best to sort it out now. Maybe you can ask the lady in the shop to watch you opening it. Or ask to see how she opens it. You can also buy the 4 leaf clover pandora opener, which I personally think is so unfairly priced.l To me it should be a $15 item not $52!!! Some of my friends keep these on their phones.

I can hardly open the clasp things myself but relie on my acrylic nails to do the trick. If I had normal nails ....forget it!!!!!

But dont be embarrest to get your situation sorted out, maybe it is the bracelet as well.

I use a guitar pick to open mine..50 cents at the music shop and it works perfectly!
I am off shopping today and might just have to go passed a few Pandora sellers to see if they have new beads yet, I am even tempted to go to the Pandora shop in the city... which may be a BIG mistake!

I went, I saw, I spent! lol
Got my Elephant bead and the grapes with the green dangle.
Actually the purple enamel barrel bead looks much better IRL than it does on the photos, and the handbags are very cute too.
The first place I went didn't have any of the Murano at all, the second shop I went to had the black, orange and darker lilac/pink one. What was odd was the black bead was the same width as all the other Murano beads, but the orange and esp the pink were noticeably narrower - don't know if that is on purpose or they just turned out that way, but they look noticeably smaller than the other Murano beads.

pjaye congratulations :woohoo:on your purchases. I wish they were mine. An interesting observation on the muranos though. If they are thiner I wonder if they will match in with the others without looking out of place. I am actually going into Melbourne GPO tomorrow to check them out. Please post photo of new ones so we can see what they actually look like.

Thanks for the welcomes Pandoraholic and Littlesharon!! I am off into town in a sec so I shall show the sales lady how I open it, she'll probably make it look a lot easier!! I'm bound to buy some more beads too!!
I'm loving the look of the new beads, I need need need a handbag - and the white enamel one looks good too - I've gotta reign in my colour scheme - its a bit eclectic at the moment!!
Let you all know how I got on in the shop later, and how much poorer I am!! x
