quality of tom binns jewelry?

[canada's]

i'm eyeing a tom binns cuff.

i love it to death, but ultimately it IS costume jewelry. can anyone comment on the quality of his pieces?

I my Tom Binns cuff (I have pictures of it in my blog), but for a relatively expensive piece, it does break easily :cry: mine snapped in two spots and I had it 'lead soldered', but I was asked to treat it very carefully, as they don't guarantee the soldering...

My friend had a gorgeous cuff as well, and her friend sat on it, and it snapped in half! So sad...

Still, I absolutely love Tom Binns...

really?!

i was afraid of that. they look so delicate. i haven't seen them irl and i would be ordering online, but i just got the feeling they were fragile. i really feel they would suit me so well.

i love his cuffs, i plan on buying one at some point. i haven't seen a good variety online though...

NAP is carrying them and has a decent selection, imho.

i'm confused, when i check the NAP site it only has one tom binns necklace and nothing else, no cuffs.

hm...maybe they sold out?

they had around six last time i checked (maybe two weeks ago).

It could be that one person is on the UK site (or International), and the other on the US site? They have different stock...

yeah i thought about that - i use the US site. i hope they get more in stock, i love his cuffs!
