jomaxsmith Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I've just won two charms on ebay from the dutch seller - for £16.50 for both - one of which I was planning to buy full price. I just need to find the letter T for ds1 now and some beads. And to think, a couple of days ago I hadn't heard of Trollbeads! Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I've a feeling we may have been bidding against each other on a couple of things I found a Guardian Angel for £50 but it wasn't on Ebay. I've found an Ebay shop that does sterling silver bracelets to size...... .......and i have about 20 emails that I'm too tired to read now....... I'll check in the morning.

Lynsey noticed that they relist more quickly so you don't need to bid too high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jomaxsmith Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Jo, there is one on here http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI ... dback:2:uk I won the letter C from her and also the chicken. Thank you! Am watching it. I feel very uncomfortable with having bought two beads full price in a jewellers today now I've seen these! Oh well, put it behind me and move on!! Really must stop looking now - I'd planned to buy 4 beads to represent hubby, myself and my boys and I'm already one over that! I've seen some lovely lampwork beads too, just got to decide on colours Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I just convinced myself I am saving money.... that's what got me through my ebay purchases, however I have stopped now, I have nothing in my watch list, I am being good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phonix Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 well ive found some bracelets on ebay that fit pandora and troll beads charms on - can that be right? If it is i'll have to get one lol they were quite cheap which means i'll be able to get charms right away too xXx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 there are charms on there that 'seem' to fit many different bracelets and that is fine if you want a charm bracelet with a troll or pandora look to it. You could do it quite cheaply I wanted to keep mine all one brand and decided on troll, so I only buy authentic troll charms. which are of course a lot more money most of the time. By doing this I also guaranteed they would be all the same colour in silver, ie not some polished and some dull etc, which I thought would look odd.

Sunshine Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 How can you tell if the charms are real troll/pandora ones? There must be some fakes on there. I havn't had a proper look on ebay yet but don't want to bid on fakes one, but would like to get cheaper charms! Emma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 The glass beads I'm buying aren't authentic but there are very good copies around now. I've also found an Ebay shop which makes sterling silver bracelets to size - I think someone else has mentioned her so I've decided to take the risk. I've just bought bracelets, clasps and beads to cover........ 4 Birthdays - including mine (from Carl ) 4 Christmas presents ....and a few odd bits and pieces that I know will find a home with one of us..... When I can sort out exactly what I've bought I will also look to see how much I've saved...... PS - I chose the Troll Bead sized bracelets so that we can add authentic Troll Beads or Pandora.

Emma it's a case of reading their feedback, checking the description against other retailers etcf.. I am satisfied I picked an ebay seller that is legit as it were.

Paola Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Here's a pic of my beads Something that I have just realised, I can only fit 20 beads on mine. You have 24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) Well, I've finally seen them in real life and am even more smitten. Good job with all the beads on the way to me. The shop does think the guardian angel might be ok on a bracelet but they haven't seem them in real life yet. I've also ordered one bracelet and two more glass beads from them.
