Ah, another Philly girl. You're welcome. Where are your favorite places to shop?Cyndi, thanks for that info. All 3 of those stores are close by me.
Thanks for asking. I'll try a couple around here and I'll let you know.Do you want me to look for you? I can hit a couple of shops this weekend.
Oh, right, we talked about Mark's, nice store, nice people. have you heard of any new promos coming up?I've been to Marks in Montgomeryville alot since it's right by work. I bought the majority of mine from the KOP store though.
Now I also started a Troll bracelet, I'm getting cross addicted!
Visited a couple "new" Pandora stockists. Can't tell hubby, he'll think I'm crazy. Here's the report: Urban Fusion in Skippack, PA for those who may someday be there. (LOL). VERY nice store. A whole "store within a store" thing. You would never guess from the outside. Picked up a lime green butterfly and she told me about the grapes promo for June and they are having a free bracelet promo in September. No retired beads and they were SELLING the catalog for $2.00.
Next: Shuler's in Norristown. Not a nice store and a very snooty sales clerk. Stood to the side dangling the case keys, kept asking if I wanted to look at the catalog. Now, why would I when I can look at the actual beads. She wasn't going to let me touch them, mind, but whatever. There were signs all over the store for "consolidation sale, nothing held back" but of course Pandora WAS held back.
Next: Whitemarsh Jewelers in Conshohocken. Nice store, clueless sales associates. I was asking about retired beads and they thought I meant a bead that said congrats on your retirement, etc. I had to point out to them a couple retireds in their case and showed them my retired bracelet. No purchases there.
then I find out that an order placed for me by a lovely forum member will not be sent because the beads are OOS. Still looking for Bear face and mushroom. Anyone seen these for reasonable amounts??
thanks, I saw them on there. $50 is a lot to me for the SS, but I may cave. LOLWaterfall Jewelers has them both for $50 each on their website! That's the cheapest I have seen them in awhile
Yay, I answered you in emailCyndi have got the bear head!

thanks so muchcyndiinphilly - the bear face and mushroom (along with a bunch of other 'retireds' are also available on ebay from an Australian seller called Lovelylush. She has 2 of the bears and 4 of the mushrooms - both priced at $49.99 BIN but she is also taking Best Offers on the bears.
The item numbers are: 280338907908 & 270378269443
Good luck!
any Philly/South Jersey folks, just talked to Nick at Anthony Jeweler's in Palmyra and they will definitely be getting the grapes charms in and they will hold them for you if you call. This is my absolute favorite Pandora store because they have the beads all on an open stand in aisle and you can fondle all you like. Best Customer service, wrap everything. They helped my hubby out with mother's day, etc. Just all around great store (no affiliation, of course)
Don't worry, you're not the only one of us who loves both Troll and Pandora. Sometimes cross addiction is a good thing ....I've been to Marks in Montgomeryville alot since it's right by work. I bought the majority of mine from the KOP store though.
