Hi Ladies, I recently bought the Wrapped with Love charm and the heart tag on the charm got scratched within a week by the protruding edges on the charm itself! Is this common? My other charms which I have been wearing for months are still in perfect unscratched conditions. Even though the charm was bought and covered under warranty for a year, however, the store will not do any exchange for me as scratches on charm is not deem as manufacturing or material defects but normal wear and tear. They mentioned that I can send it for polishing but without guarantee that the scratch will be gone at the cost of 80SGD when I purchased the charm for only 71SGD. Would anybody here be able to advise me? Thank you :)
If you've only had the charm for a week I don't know why you couldn't return it for a replacement. Did you check it closely when you bought it, it might have already been scratched from being in the display case with other charms at the store.

Yep, that will happen just because of the design. it's also common for the heart tag to fall off. It's not very secure, so be careful! :smile1:

Tried bringing to the store for an exchange but was told that they will only do an exchange for charms that are brand new and in saleable condition. And since the heart tag is already scratched they will not be able to do a replacement. Feeling so bummed now. But I can only have myself to blame for not checking it properly. :sad:

Have been purchasing my charms from overseas as its much cheaper outside SG and this is my first time purchasing from the local retail store which claims that the higher price we are paying is due to the benefit of having a one year warranty. But from what I see, the warranty is as good as useless. LOL! :roflmfao:

Alright. Enough of ranting. All of you have really nice bracelets!! :loveeyes:
Started my pandora collection back in late November last year and its half filled now!! Cant wait for it to be full :) already KIV-ing all the lovely charms and I'm gonna save up lots and buy them during my next overseas holiday!

wow! didn't know its so delicate. but probably if the tag really falls off, i can then ask for a replacement under the warranty due to manufacturing defects :p

now i'm worried about the black friday 2012 charm that i have just ordered and on its way here! >.<

You can :smile1: silver lining! Ha. Don't worry, even if the tag did fall off, it's still cute, and it wouldn't be noticeable.
 
Hi ladies quick question...I bought the bangle bracelet last week already have the silver starter charm bracelet. I have worn together for the past two days, will it cause scratching on the bangle?
 
hi tabitha,

i'm curious to know if you get a tracking number when you ordered from jewel first?

and i think i never tell you that your cat is lovely :smile1:
No tracking number. You just get an email to say it's shipped. The charms come in the new Pandora pop up box and Pandora tissue paper. I put the house charm in an old box to give to my friend as I thought it was better than the pop up box.


Thanks, my cat is such a lovely cat!x

I'm not sure which charm you mean. Do you have a photo? Charms do scratch and it's normal. You may have caught it on something and the scratch is more prominent that other small scratches. All my charms have tiny scratched and it is normal. If you have it polished out, they will just come back. You could send it from a goldsmiths (a different jewellers, not Pandora) and they will send it out to polish which may be cheaper.
 
So ladies. I've had my pave charms since Christmas. And well. I don't like them anymore on my two tone bracelet. So I'm gonna put them on my leather bracelet with the other charms I love but don't wear. Will definitely stack them. :) anyway or another I love this stacking combo. Love pandora for this exact reason. I can always change them up View attachment 2501551


Why don't you like the paves on your two tone?

The bangle will develop scratches regardless. Once you put charms on or wear it with another bracelet, it will rub and develop tiny scratches.

Thanks Tabitha:smile1: I did read earlier in this thread that there had been problems with charms on the bangle. I bought a dress charm to use on the bangle, however thought it looked better without charms.
