Can you post a link to the sellers site so we can see a picture, and the sellers info? I don't remember a bear head either. I questioned the authenticity of a charm, and Paypal refunded my money.

Hi everyone,
Pandora did make a bear head charm several years ago which is now retired. I don't own one, but can only assume that it's stamped ALE like all others.
Perhaps you can call a dealer which still carries it to ask? Here one link I found:
http://www.retiredpandora.com.au
If you scroll to the bottom and click on retired beads, you'll see it in there.

Yes, they are of a very good quality and IMO they are expensive even in all silver. The all silver beads are less costly and will run around $25 - $35 each, count on more (even double that amt) if you get beads with stones or gold. But, the quality of the workmanship is very good. A full bracelet holds approx 21 charms, so multiply that by $30 (average amount of a silver charm) and you are well over $600, not including the cost of the chain bracelet. They are so much fun to collect, just collect responsively and try not to go crazy at first (like I did).

Pandora is of VERY good quality. My fiance jokes that I am allergic to cheapness, because I will break out into hives if my jewelry has any form of nickel or other cheap metals. I have not once broken out into hives wearing my Pandora!
It can be an expensive addiction to develop, even in all silver. I don't have any solid gold charms because I don't like too much yellow gold, but with two bracelets (one not even full yet), my collection is worth quite a pretty penny.
I am very excited at the moment, I have ordered myself the white leather bracelet, little girl, little boy and cupcake charm! Can anyone who has the leather tell me how many charms you should put on it? Some places I have read only 6 and others say up to 10
i get that reaction to cheapjewellery too! its horrible .... thats the real reason why i was so curious about the quality . i can only wear silver, or gold anything cheap or even expensive costume jewellery does it to me and i hate it, i wish there were a way around it.
im so excited about getting my first charm lol

In the back of the Pandora catalogue, it says a MAXIMUM of 7-9. Any more than that, and you risk them not repairing/replacing it if it breaks. Most people I know who have one say that they wouldn't put any more than 7 on it, though.
You should be okay with Pandora. Have fun purchasing your first charm!

I think I'm actually starting to calm down on Pandora now after 3 years! I've been pretty unimpressed with the last few releases and don't really like the next release too much either. There are still a few of the older ones I want though x
Hi ladies. Has anyone heard of Halia beads? Any one own any? I saw a starfish bead from them and I love it. Super cute. Thanks for any info..
Hello Hunni, The bear was part of the first collection and it doesnt have an ale because the first collection didnt. the first how ever many they made to launch, then when they went into production for the second collection the ale came in. who was the seller? JFX jewelry? they are legit and I use them often

does anyone know if there are any safe ebayers to buy the beads/bracelets from who i can be sure sell only authentic items? i'd like to buy some from ebay but not sure if i can trust it or not ...
ooooh its a difficult decision ... i think i'll be getting with the bracelet the saftey beads but not sure whether to go with gold or silver yet.
i dont know if they count as a bead ... i was thinking maybe one with a dangling charm , possibly the heart with dangling key .... i dont know . im so excited about looking in the store and choosing my first bead

You can basically narrow things down if they say "fits pandora" or "like pandora" or "pandora style" . There are a few sellers that are popular - not sure if I can mention them but basically look at their feedback score - make sure its 100% or very close to that and see what other pandora items they have for sale. You could always ask us here to check for you if you need.
