Doxie-
That is the manga charity bead. The pink one was for a girl's school in Singapore, and the green one was issued for the Japan tsunami.
I believe they are sold out, but sometimes you can find them on the secondary market.
This is mine...



So I've found the green one (which is the one I want) on ebay for $155. Is that average for a glass bead like that? It seems so much.
 
I drove to the closest Trollbeads retailer in my area today because they were hosting their trunkshow and it was fun! They always have a super friendly staff, my friend volunteers to work there ( and gets paid in beads, lucky girl!), and I walked away with the freyja clasp and a new bracelet.
I would buy the beads, but I am on the bead loyalty program for Trollbeads At The Commons. Plus, TATC doesn't charge tax or shipping, which I love.
I tried on the silver bangle. I liked it alot, but compared to the bracelet retailing for $46, and then you get that for free when you buy a decorative lock, at $133 (plus $40 for two stoppers and of course sales tax) I will wait and at least get the stoppers for free from TATC.
It was nice to finally get a good hands on look at the black onyx fantasy necklace. I like it way more than the pearl one! But that is something else that I will wait for and get as a gift one day, or as a splurge if I ever can afford that.
The new beads were pretty cool. I really liked the Fossil, and the starfish silver was cute, as well as the seahorses silver charm! I am a fan of ocean stuff, so of course I liked most everything from that collection.
 
I just thought I would show you what is inside my bead box.

there are still locks, an amethyst FN and my anniversary bracelet not pictures, but other than the beads on my anniversary bracelet, my other troll beads are in those pictures.

Not such a huge collection as some may have, but not too small either, I love each piece.

Thanks for sharing this with us Engel - would love to see your lovely bracelet designs from these wonderful beads.
I am envious of your RAF beads (are those even available anywhere anymore? And your Japanese Manga beads! Glad you are loving and enjoying them.

I dont know if the raf beads are still available, i got them when they were just out last year. i planned to buy two more of them eventually, but i guess this wont be happening now. :(

and the manga beads i ordered from a japanese website last year as well, i saw they are going for insane prices on evil bay now.
 
The only local jeweler that sells Troll also sells their big ol' book... For $65!! Isn't that cheap? I want to get it, i just sold some items on bonanza so now i have a bit of money. Does anyone have this book?
 
So excited. Sold a few pieces on Bonanza and not only was I able to get my sister's and mother's birthday presents done, I got myself a Trolbeads bangle! I am so excited, can't wait to get it. I personally think it is alot for a silver bangle, but I didn't pay tax and I am getting two free stoppers, so that helps!
