Hi Ali...actually..I'm looking for a silver bracelet to buy at wholesale prices..that I can string large hole beads on. Not looking for an actual "pandora" bracelet. I guess I should have been alittle more accurate in my description...just one of those days when the appropriate words escape me....fogged in today.

you should check out the bulk buy section. i know that there has been biagia bracelet buys in the past, there will probably be one in the future. :)

and if you don't mind if its not sterling i think karen thomas has silver plated bracelets on her site.

have ordered from deffego, here is the link:

The bracelets are nice and work for the pandora style glass beads with or without rivets. I also purchased some of their big hole beads and stopper beads to go on the bracelet. Also purchased the 3mm snake chain necklaces which look great with a large rivited bead.
There is a minimum order of $100. Check with them as I know I have never order a dozen of any one type of chain and only purchased one bracelet when I bought the necklaces.

I put this in the bathroom last night but then I went to bed and didn't check back in to see what anybody said. lol Anyway I was looking on ebay for Pandora or Biagi bracelets and saw that someone out of China is selling them for $9 and free shipping. I was wondering how they can sell them so cheap and if they are the real deal. They have all but good comments too. Anybody know?

Thanks for the links...Ali...I definately want sterling silver...but thanks for the link anyway!

Kris...I saved deffego's website and will check it out later. Looks like great prices..thanks!

Corey...I'm not familiar with the ebay seller you've mentioned..maybe someone else has some experience with them and will chime in.

I usually buy all my silver from Rio Grande...but like to shop around for other prices/products.

thanks again!

What I need is a good gold snake chain bracelet with stopper beads.
I am allergic to silver.
Most of the brand name ones are so expensive.
I guess I could raid my savings and buy a Troll bracelet.:rolleyes:(not)
I am looking at the silver ones with the gold clasp beads but just not sure yet.
I know if I get the gold plated kind it will wear off and be
making my skin blister and itch in no time.
It would be so cool if they made some in stainless because I can wear that.

great links to check out, thx guys..

I was checking out sterling silver bracelets and actually found that the original Troll Bead Byzantine SS bracelet to be less expensive than FireMountain and a couple others.If you buy in bulk at FM..of course the cost goes down..but unless you are buying 40 plus to over 200 items..it doesn't go down significantly.

to Corey. Avoid the ebay bracelets like the plague. I import from China and have just checked my (reliable) suppliers site listings. I cannot get a 3mm SS bracelet for less than $14, although I can get a 2mm woven SS for $5. What I can quite easily get are plated bracelets stamped 925 for around $1 each, not that I would :) That is probably what they are selling as silver on ebay. Basically, if it sounds too good to be true, it is!

There's someone here on LE "Mirjam" (company name begins with an "A" I just can't recall it at the moment:-s) who sells lovely sterling bracelets that fit all the BHB's. She has great customer service (once had to replace a lost shipment and was extremely responsive) and great prices! I'll try to do a search later and will re-post if I can find it!

Ck Hayley's BHB exchange/current thread as I think Mirjam is going to participate.

Hope that helps!

Actually Pandora was started in Copenhagen (Denmark), then developed making own business dealing with high demand. You can find professional dealers for selling Pandora jewels on internet.

Whoa...I saw my name in the first post of this thread...forgot I had asked about the bracelets over a year ago!:)

Hi! Well, I do have experience buying Pandora bracelets from suppliers in China selling on Ebay. They are silver over copper, and they do not hold up very well at all. I would avoid any seller from China on Ebay. I have also purchased many snake chains from Ebay as well.... same thing, silver over copper. I am new to lampworking and have just been checking it out. This is actually my first post!
