But remember to go with your own intuition!Thank you Junkenpo - so now that is three Jadies who prefer the fiery orange and green one over the soft green and browny blush one
I looked at that honey brown one too!
Isn't this journey fun with all the jade sisters here to bounce off ideas?! I can tell you I have no such support around here. Not enough interest nor knowledge in these parts...
Ugh...I am Soo ticked off!!
I really wanted this bangle..I watched it and I ALMOST had it at $2.75...until ONE SECOND BEFORE someone else up-ed me by a damn quarter!!!!! Even had me almost cussin while I registered my kids for church school since It was ending at that time..
Grr....

Yes.. 4 boys...they wear me out sometimes!!! Boys are fun but they can be crazy!! And I'm thinking about that---my future daughter in law or granddaughter that I can dress up in jade
I have heard that time and time again clairejune--girls are more expensive... 4 boys....yes, sometimes it feels like a lot to deal with but they are fun and not as expensive as girls I think
Missloka, ugh, that's so frustrating!! So sorry about the bangle! I know just how that feels. Once I was trying to buy a gold and diamond ring snake on eBay, and at the very last second, someone upped their bid by 1 dollar and won. I was in a very sour mood for days after. It's been enough not to try bidding for something I love again. I did try it on live auctioneers later and lost again. Same thing...I was heart broken because I thought it would be mine!
You know, I got a better snake ring later, I truly Believe that something else is waiting for you cheer up! You never know what treasures you will find!

Yes I will and I don't have a decision made yet but it is fun to bounce ideas and get different opinions
My mom and cousins, aunts etc are not interested at all in jade and neither are my friends. I have one friend who wears a beautiful bangle but she has no interest of getting more so you Jadies are my jade friends 😍Which state / city are you in?

Lol yes I know boys can be crazy
we just came back from a long hike in the woods. At least they keep me active!And sorry you didn't get that bangle. Maybe it wasn't meant to be but a more beautiful bangle will come along....

Awww... shucks. It's hard to lose something you've been watching for awhile to a sniper, especially at a low price. I have to remind myself that if I lose, it wasn't meant to be, and that something better will come along.
.. As for boys not being as expensive... lol. I guess it depends on the boy. DS isn't interested in jewelry, but he loves his toys and DH loves to get him new ones all the time since DS is a single with no siblings to share with. DS's cousins are into gaming systems and sports, so that adds up in a different way. haha
Lol very true Junkenpo boys love their games and gadgets how old is your son? Does he wear any jade? Mine are 8 & 10 as I mentioned and they don't wear any jewellery except for a watch occasionally. They so how we know how much I enjoy wearing bangles and they will give me their opinions if asked. It's very sweet actually 😊

Yes it does suck....and I am telling myself that it wasn't meant to be mine... probably someone elses.so that's what they're called? "Snipers" --lol, wow..that Meade me laugh! I ve never heard of that. They sure sniped me, I thought for sure I had it!
YOU TOTALLY REMINDED ME!!!! yes they are expensive!! Just this past spring we spent more then 800 on fees and equipment for baseball!!! I never thought it would add up!!! And I never thought bats and gloves were so expensive! Luckily, they aren't playing football this season!!!
And gaming!!!...ugh!!!! Games can be expensive!!! Thats all my kiddos seem to love, games
I'm sure they would get along with your son

Wow....same thing happened! Last second.
I haven't bought from that seller...I wanted to check it out, plus when I saw the bid-- 1 cent--I was entrigued. The more I looked, I thought, this isn't too bad for a few bucks IF no one sees it. I saw the same seller auction off 2 bangles recently--although one looked color polished, I thought, wow!!..so cheap as well, totally my budget...although in the past, one of the bangles went for 20.00 THE OTHER that had some nice lavender on it went all the way past 1,000---and they both started at 1 cent..
ANYWAY--- so I started thinking--"you got this, no one's even bid in days"...and a 'sniper' got it (Junkenpo's cool name For them) just as I was finishing up my kids Sunday school registrations AND watching the auction.
A SOUR MOOD---describes how I felt EXACTLY!#$&
I was frustrated in Mass and when I came home I found my husband (who didn't want to go to church with us..) had left to watch football....grrrrrr!!!!
But Clairejune---you are soo wise....I'm going to take what you said to heart... I'm sure another bangle is out there for me
more jewelry sometimes I wish I didn't love it so much, I am building a collection for my boys, their wives and girl babies someday
because of that, I try to buy ALL sizes including ones that fit me (59-60mm) CAN YOU TAKE A Pic Of YOUR Snake Ring??? I'm glad u got a better one.. I will someday too... I look everywhere for jewelry, especially jades
@Junkenpo--my husband Would LOVE IT if I said, "ok I'm doNE collecting bangles.." I think he would jump for joy literally!!!!! Lol...but I am far from done. I ALWAYS see now pretties and then ask my husband, can I please?...is it possible? Can I get it?
I need to stop looking online, but I cant....there's so many pretty jades out there...I'm always screenshotting bangles and names of sellers since my memory is **** thx to an accident yrs ago.
That ring IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I was shocked when I clicked on the link!!!! It is a bit much but I'm sure it's worth it
I love the translucency and how it's set!! A beauty!
HEY LADIES...
I have a question....what Is usually the most you go down in mm from your size in a bangle? D shaped? Princess???
For some reason, a smaller princess cut bangle slides onto my wrist a lot easier then a d shaped??
HOW MANY MM CAN YOU ALL GO DOWN FROM YOUR BANGLE SIZE, WHAT THE SMALLER SIZE IN A BANGLE AND WHAT IS YOUR REGULAR BANGLE SIZE??"
