to represent my sons birthday in november I have the champagne oval lights...looks just like a citrine (without it being too orangey-yellow). For me, it looks like it just enough.....

I must check out the Champagne oval lights. My local store sold me a spacer with champagne stones in it, but it looks more like a clear stone than a yellow topaz. I like it for the 'bling factor', just the same.

Well that's what I originally thought too. But, it seems that they can ship international. I just chose my country "Australia" and the option for international shipping.. Strange..

Anyhow, I never ordered anything as I still prefer to shop locally. I actually just got back from bday shopping with DBF!

I got the s/s bracelet, Queen Bee, Key and heart, cupcake and the happy buddha!! :yahoo: So, I'm quite happy today. Except I cant wear it till my bday!

Good ones, Jasmine_88! Thanks for the tip about Lewis Jewelers, I will check it out. I was thinking about how much more we are paying here. I mean $429 for the gold clasp SS bracelet :nuts: !! Made me start wishing for a trip to the US for shopping....and sightseeing too of course!
While I'm on that subject, why don't Pandora make beads like the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, etc, ? I guess they don't want to copy the other brands that have done it. I think chamilia has done the Sydney opera house, but I don't like it much:graucho:, the bead that is ;)

;) No probs. Although, I'm still concerned about the fact that it's known that Pandora sellers cannot/don't ship international.. (which I was only aware of after posting) So I'm not sure what's going on with Lewis Jewellers. In other words, don't get ya hopes up lol! But yeh, thought maybe some people who are interested can look into it.

I think a trip to the US is definately a great idea :p Maybe I can rope DBF into taking a holiday there one day.. he can see the sites and I'll stock up on some cheaper Pandora lol.. Win/win. I did see someone selling a oxidised 19cm w/gold clasp on ebay for around $240 (if I recall) but yeh, cheap!! I just hope another bargain comes along like that when I have some spare dollars.

And yeh. It's a shame Pandora hasn't chosen to make beads of the world "icons". I love to travel and think having a bead for each destination I visit would be fab.

Does anyone have the key to my heart charm? Are there any issues with the dangly key bit getting caught or being pulled off? I'm thinking of buying it next week when I am in Bruges, if I find the shop that is.

I'm going for a two-tone bracelet with champagne stones to add a bit of colour and I was in love with the champagne trinity spacer but, I haven't seen them in person. Thanks for pointing this out as I would of thought (by the pics) it was more 'yellowish' colour. I might have to head down to the store to check them out, but yeah, I need a bit of sparkle on my bracelet, maybe these will suit well. And the oval lights, I looove it. It's been on my wishlist from day 1 :p

Aprilshack I'm a little concerned about that too as my bf just bought me a bracelet with the key to my heart bead but I haven't been able to wear it yet as it's not my bday yet :( I have looked at it tho and tried my bracelet on a few times and it doesn't seem as though it could be a problem, although I'd like to hear what the other girls say bout this.

I have had this bead for a few years now and I have never had a problme with it. Its very small and the chain isn't very long at all. Its one of my favorite beads. Go for it.

Thanks! Hopefully I'll be able to find the shop & have it in stock.Otherwise I'll probably go for the pandora perfume bottle or the silver sphere with the gold crown or the queen bee.

I called my Pandora Shoppe , I was running late from work and would not make it before they closed. They pulled 2 all gold Matrix beads. They both did not not have the ALE or the 585. The design is too open and detailed too show the hallmark. Some beads just dont fit the norm like the peace sign dangle that beads slides on it does not have threading
.
pinkchandeliershoppe looks legit. I may bid on a few of her items myself. My Pandora shoppe sells Vera Bradley and since this seller sells both I truly believe you are fine.The only negative or neutral feedback is on Vera Bradley not arriving or seller cancelling a Vera Bradley purchases.

If you still are nervous go to a regular jeweler and they can confirm that is real gold thru and thru.
