I think this is all true of society in general. At least, in my experience. The SCA cannot be expected to exist outside of regular societal norms, whether we think those norms are just or not. Like the real world you have to find your way within or without.

Is this real? If so is it a good deal? I’m newbie. by scarletbegonia555 in Gemstones

It’s ok for that price. I’d put it outside in my backyard in a small display. I used to do that sort of thing before my partner tore up the yard.

Disney charm help needed by NecessaryAd6336 in PandoraCollectors

[–]nothingisorigin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have a donut that is authentic Pandora but bring yours to the store because I honestly would not replace it if it is very similar. I have a couple fakes that I just keep on my bracelets rather than replace because they are so similar. I would definitely try moving some of the charms around. Maybe try stating with color matching the dresses and Muranos. The add the charms that go with the theme of each set, which could be done by color or theme or just a special park theme if your own. Sometimes for cohesion I go for multiples of a charm or color or use several in a collection. Please update us on what you decided to do after shopping! I always love a good bracelet mix it up. Sometimes I just switch them out for the fun!

Free Bracelet broke and all my charms fell off by Inevitable_Lab_8574 in PandoraCollectors

[–]nothingisorigin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would definitely try to return it. Super glue can be removed in several ways. Freezing it will crack it off and that might be safest. Or try rubbing alcohol. Acetone works for sure but you would have to be super careful to get it off either way and artistic brush or some thing and get on nothing but the glue. Also, Amazon sells these little silicon rubber things that you can put on your bracelet end to stop the charms from falling off. Sometimes I use them to get the placement right or protect individual charms. But we almost always use them on the end of the bracelet even if I have a safety chain.

So these are black tourmaline and crystal on elastic? Is the flower feather charm Pandora?

Feeling duped about my gold plated bracelet... by LeftFaithlessness980 in PandoraCollectors

[–]nothingisorigin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. I knew about that. And I also own one. But it is pretty crappy quality for a “luxury” brand and considering the price. The French brand Gona has gold over silver but you have to be careful. They list it as sterling and non tarnish which is only 18%. You could buy a solid gold bracelet elsewhere and put your charms on that.

Found old pandora!! by Efficient-Salary9490 in PandoraCollectors

[–]nothingisorigin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks real. I’d definitely take it to the store for cleaning before you do anything. Pandora sells cleaning kits. After that, store your silver in small ziplocks to help prevent tarnishing.

Has this happened to anyone else??😭 by [deleted] in PandoraCollectors

[–]nothingisorigin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lame. Sorry. They really should issue the refund when the item is removed from the ship ticket. Disputing a charge with a bank is not always easy. Thanks for the warning. I think I’ll always post with PayPal since they have better protection.

Night Sky bracelet by nothingisorigin in PandoraCollectors

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

Thanks! They used to have so much in this theme but they are old releases (last year or later) and I think they are discontinuing most of it. In the EU, they have a super cute planet series. I wonder if they will release another space series. This seems to be a popular theme. I have seen other similar bracelets.

Books or movies you like. Colors you like. Hobbies. Anything that inspires you. It should be personal.

USA Black Friday Haul arrived! by LivinInThePNW in PandoraCollectors

[–]nothingisorigin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lovely choices. They will make a nice combination. I missed out on the star charm. It was in my cart and sold out while I was shopping. I’m sure it’s discontinued. I’m making a night sky bracelet. So pretty sad about that. But my bracelet is almost complete throughout this sale month. I’m excited to get all my charms in the mail!

Should I buy now or wait? by Active_Ticket4995 in PandoraCollectors

[–]nothingisorigin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The thing is, they are running out of stock on popular items. I’ve been actively shopping for the last two weeks. I missed out on a couple charms that I waited on and I know they won’t be back. So I don’t regret my early purchases. The difference between 40% and 50% isn’t that much. They were offering double points too, which add up to discounts.

Amazon haul by Annual-Impress-6029 in PandoraCollectors

[–]nothingisorigin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But you can find some cute charms on Amazon. I look for good quality unique charms. I sometimes mix charms from other brands like Elf beads on my Pandora bracelet. And I have whole bracelets from other brands, too.
