Lesley Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Stacey - I've bought from two sellers....... oozy-le-sooz - her Ebay shop is called findingsnfings. This bracelet is listed as being shinier than an authentic Trollbeads one, my son's girlfriend wanted a shinier one. You have to order a clasp as an extra but they have the plain one and the lace one. Heather at Orkney Bracelets - listed as St. Silver Snake 2.5mm Bracelet - fits all Trollbeads It looks coiled and has blue beads on it in the photo. This one comes with 3 stoppers and a clasp. It is in the middle of page 2 of the full list of items. both sellers have been very easy to communicate with and very helpful. I ordered today and both orders are on their way (will be sent tomorrow on Next Day from Orkney) I also bid in a Dutch Auction with the Dutch seller..........all in English but the emails come in Dutch! That was just for one bead - Three in One. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 ooh those beads are gorgeous. I mustn't I mustn't I mustn't. Now these are the times I need a daughter as an excuse to buy more... I have a daughter, a granddaughter and a son's girlfriend and myself of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paola Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Have you seen the leather bracelet for Trollbeads? Not sure if I should go for one of those or another silver one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 yes I saw those, either in brown or black leather they are a totally different look which is nice, quite tempting really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phonix Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Have you seen the leather bracelet for Trollbeads?

Lesley Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 The lady at Orkney Bracelets sells a starter set on a leather bracelet - £12.99 - you can choose the colour of beads used. I've ordered one for Lauren and then she can have a more expensive bracelet when she is older. I just went and paid for the Dutch one - it seemed the easiest thing to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 The three in one is a nice charm you bought Lesley, I looked at that. I keep getting my little chicken charm out and having a look, she's my little chicken of fate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I also like the Three Siblings - but not sure what it looks like on the bracelet It seems to have a large hole through the middle and not the same as other beads and charms.

Cooks Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 yes I know what you mean, there's a few charms like that, I guess is would dangle a bit more than the others. ?? is there not a shop locally you could take a look at it? You don't have to buy from them of course.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I think it's easier just to say I want them all -lol Am really please with the lucky dragon as I got that for £15.49 instead of £40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jomaxsmith Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Lesley - I think you and I were bidding against each other on the Unity bead on Monday night but luckily there were 3 of them so the price didn't go up! Hubby had chosen that bead to represent himself on my new bracelet so I was pleased to see it on eBay (and since dh himself buys almost everything from ebay it is rather fitting!) abwsco - I love that dragon and was going to bid last night but thought I'd wait to see what my Unity and Tupilak from that seller are like. I wonder how long they'll take to arrive from the Netherlands? I also won a 'T' from the other dutch seller last night and have ordered some glass beads from http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Artisan-Dichroic-by-GeeJayC to see what the quality is like. I hope everyone is going to post pictures when they've got all their beads and bracelets together! Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I was thinking the very same thing, pictures are a must I think with something with them like a penny as a size guide, as some are just a lot bigger/smaller than others. I better get the camera charged. My total before my birthday (have been told to stop now) Butterflies Teddy Pink Pearl Drop (supposed to be a pendant but I like the thought of it hanging proud in memory of Poppy my little dog. Chicken and the Pearl Flower Clasp. No glass beads as of yet, but hubby says there's Xmas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
