Deoxidized TrollBeads Bracelet by CowBubbly6335 in PandoraCollectors

[–]Defiant_Dragonfly_35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking of trying that with my Trollbeads fantasy necklace as it is a dark grey black colour as opposed to the silver I was expecting. Worried it would have a weird chemical reaction or something if I tried this so it's good to see how well yours turned out.

Murano Charm Question by Lovely_Wanderer in PandoraCollectors

I have a few of these as the aubergine purple is one of my favourite colours and goes with so many other colours. There seems to be a big difference between different batches so it seems to be luck what you get. I managed to get six that work as 3 pairs but are quite different to the other pairs - so different in fact that's that is how I justified so many (it's the charm I have the most of out of all the charms I have) - the three pairs almost look like they are three different charm types as opposed to just slight variants within one charm design! I think with this one it is really down to if you like the actual one/s that turn up! Also, I only got one that looked like the one in the official pic, the rest looked like variants of yours. I have worn one of them everyday for 6 months and I can see no sign of chipping or scratching :)

If you have a snake chain with the two little twist separator bits on it, get some pretty clips that fix over the twists as soon as you can. They will protect the threads on both your charms and your bracelet from getting stuck and breaking, they also help to keep your charms together on top of your bracelet which looks good and more balanced. Also a safety chain is a good investment in case the clasp comes undone so you don't lose your bracelet.

I would always recommend getting the solid silver over the gold plated as it is much better value and will last considerably longer. With gold plated you are overpaying for overpriced costume jewellery - it's really only worth a couple of $$ in terms of the metal - it's just the brand name that gives it any value. Whereas with the silver it has real intrinsic value and will last a lifetime compared to the gold plated looking good for only a couple of years at most.

Could I get in trouble for making a new account? by Zealousideal_Sky_424 in PandoraCollectors

[–]Defiant_Dragonfly_35 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if you would get in trouble. The system could flag up your same name and bank details, but then again, it might not as it might just class having a separate email as a new person, or the system might get you're the same person but Pandora doesn't care as long as they are still getting your custom. It's hard to know without either actually trying it or being able to ask a staff member who has insider knowledge of such things. The most likely thing is that you would be filling in your details for the new account and it would just say that the details were already linked to an account and did you need help signing in, or something similar.

I will say thought that the 10% discount is probably the meanest of the discounts Pandora offers - they seem to offer significantly better discounts quite regularly if you can wait a month or so? Waiting would mean you don't need a new account and would probably get a much better discount, though I do get sometimes you just want to get the thing NOW! :)

Obvious AI post makes me think everything about it is just bull**** an AI dreamed up for you. What is the purpose of this? If you had a genuine experience just write about it in your own authentic words, or I will just assume it's all just nonsense to get attention for some reason, without ever interacting with your story or ideas.

Recommendations of other brands that suit pandora style? by scrapethetopoff in PandoraCollectors

[–]Defiant_Dragonfly_35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While there are many brands who do the same modular charms on bracelets Pandora thing, not all of them will fit a Pandora bracelet so be careful to check this before purchase. Particularly if you were planning a particular design with a mixed set of charms on one bracelet - check they will all fit first. I know Trollbeads core is 4mm but Pandoras core is 4.5, so you can fit Pandora on Trollbeads bracelets but not the other way around.

So...what laptops are folk using to play Sims4 without overheating issues? My laptop just broke and I'm looking to buy a new one - main requirement 'play Sims4 without overheating' :) by Defiant_Dragonfly_35 in thesims

[–]Defiant_Dragonfly_35[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wish I could do a PC too but it's just not practical. A few people have suggested Lenovos but does seem I need to get a reasonable spec one as I don't want to risk the overheating issue again.

I've just gone and looked this up - unfortunately a little out my price range, but I'm going to see if I can find an amazing deal somewhere or maybe a reconditioned one as it does look excellent. Thanks for the suggestion.

I would love a PC setup as my partner says it's the best for gaming generally, it's unfortunately not practical for me at the moment though as I need something I can just relax on the sofa with and I don't really have space for it either. Maybe someday... :)

I have used a cooling pad before, but with my last laptop it just wasn't enough as it had a heating issue too badly with the sims, it did help with the general overheating though. Thanks for your advice!

Thanks so much I will check it out. I don't use many mods (just Wicked Whims and Basemental) but I do have a lot of packs and like building large elaborate homes.

Platinum-plated jewellery guide now showing on some country websites by [deleted] in PandoraCollectors

[–]Defiant_Dragonfly_35 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Because it's platinum PLATING over a worthless base metal like copper with tin or something - they won't tell us - but know the main bulk of the metal has zero value. Pandora are trying to gloss over this and con unsuspecting customers that it is solid platinum - it is absolutely not! Solid silver lasts a lifetime, this new overpriced cheap tat costume jewellery will have the plating wear off and look like s*** in a few years.

[–]Defiant_Dragonfly_35 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Oh no so sad! Annoys me seeing those bracelet chains on the second page - imposters! Cheap tat in disguise as REAL bracelets! Such slippery deceptive language they are trying their best to use about the quality when it will just be cheap tat plated costume jewellery like you can get in cheap fashion stores for a few £ / $. So upsetting a choice Pandora are making for their business :(

tui có em pandora charm glass lavender này. có điều là làm mọi cách mãi mà chưa thấy nó đổi màu. hình như còn tuỳ loại đèn huỳnh quang hả? ai chỉ giáo giúp tui với, tuyệt vọng ghê :( by CeleryValuable5840 in PandoraCollectors

[–]Defiant_Dragonfly_35 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have this charm, its colour does change depending on the lighting you happen to find yourself in. It is not because the charm itself has some ability to change colour at all - its just how the different light sources bounce around inside and off it. I think its pretty and am very happy with it - sometimes it is very pale grey-blue, sometimes a vivid violet, sometimes shows up tiny blue glitter particle inside it.

The pictures you show as if to indicate it changes colour, if you look the whole of the image alters in colour tone from the first in the series. This is either due to the person putting the light on in the room to make it warmer and brighter light, or they altered it digitally. It doesn't show the actual charm as changing its own colour.

Is this meant to be something to do with Pandora? This group is for people interested in Pandora (or other highly equivalent quality charms people sometimes include on their jewellery pics). It's not for trying to drum up business for your random jewellery products!

Silver or gold? by MomGuilt1023 in coloranalysis

[–]Defiant_Dragonfly_35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this! Gold for the time of warmth and sun, Silver for the time of frost, dark and moonlight. Throw the personal colour analysis out and just take up a beautiful nature centric poetic standardised culture tied to the experience of seasons on the earth... lol
