Well I went back to Jared and exchanged my 8.3 for a 7.5 and it's perfect. Finally I am able to wear my bracelet and enjoy it. I also got two clips so now I have two clips and four charms. The sales lady I had this time was better. The original SA I had was not there thank God I did not want to deal with him again. This new one was better but pretty hasty. They didn't look very busy to me but then who knows. She seemed rushed. I am glad she happily exchanged the bracelet and didn't give me any trouble. Now that that's over I can focus on what I want next lol

Hi everyone, I was just wondering what you thought about a bracelet that's murano-less? I recently got into pandora, but I'm not a huge fan of muranos mostly because I've heard that they scratch easily and they don't look pretty when they have scratches. However, I've had people tell me that having a murano charm is what makes these charm bracelets unique... I think I might buy some cheap glass beads online to try them out but considering the price of Pandora's and how quickly they scratch, I can't really justify buying them.Just wanted to know what you ladies thought about this and if you every tried going murano-less :p

With or without muranos is totally your choice as you are the only one wearing it!!! THAT'S what makes it unique!! How YOU want it!!......just so you know though, the pandora warranty on a pandora bracelet is voided if you put non Pandora charms on your bracelet, although there would have to be proof of it to actually void the warranty....:smile1:

I did it! I walked out of Ben Bridge empty handed! I went to browse and they had the summer charms in which I wasn't expecting until next week. It wasn't in my budget for this week so I looked and left. The SA even called me a "loyal customer" which made me feel good and guilty at the same time lol!!

Lol I didn't mean I lied. I meant that I spoke too soon. I left the store empty handed and walked around the mall waiting for my grandma and great aunt to meet me for lunch. At that point I posted that I left empty handed. I ended up going back and purchasing a charm at which point I posted again saying I "lied"

a random question for you pandora experts out there.

I've purchased a few pandora items that don't have the ale/925 markings on them but they are authentic. My nostalgia charm and crown charm, for example, don't have the markings anywhere on the bead.

Are these odd charms or do some charms not bear the markings but are still authentic.

I'm learning more and more about pandora. It's an interesting and very addictive world. My partner is worried about my obsession :sweatdrop: Thanks everyone!

Also, how do you know they are genuine? Did you purchase from an authorized seller?

You're right, I guess I shouldn't boldly say they are 100% authentic. I did purchase the charms from my friends and they only purchase authentic pandora stuff (so far as I know).

I'll take photos right now and upload them.

Thanks for your response! I appreciate it.

Alright, so here are the pics. My gosh, if my friends sold me fakes, I think I'll have to re-evaluate my friendship with them! They look and feel just right to me as a pandora charm, but I'm a newbie to this world so I can't say with total certainty that anything is real.

Thanks to everyone in advance for their opinions!

They certainly look real enough. I'm going to my local retailer this weekend so I'll take a look at those and see if/where they're stamped or not.
