What is your recent ALCHEMY purchase?

Got the discontinued Countess Elga chocker.

Didn't really save big on it (just 5 GBP) as the postage is a total rip-off (no surprise on ebay). If it turns out they posted it with tracking I'll be forgiving, but if I see they paid like 2 GBP while charging me 6 GBP - I'll go ballistic. :evil: Oh, and I rather not say what I'll do if they overcharged me on postage and I get charged customs on top of that. *blood-thirsty*

Love that choker! It's gorgeous.

I recently bought myself the Victoria's Glad Rocks Ring:

Woo! You won it!

A saving is a saving.

>.< I'm having to return one of my hairsticks because it came to me already damaged..The seller mentioned something about a lifetime warranty and how she wants me to return it and she'll refund me. After that her email gets a bit confusing.

If there is a lifetime warranty, couldn't I just send it straight to Alchemy myself? :huh: I've never heard of this warranty before.

Thanks! I was the only bidder. :silly: Although, by the end of the auction I was hoping someone would overbid me, because lately I'm not really that good with money and there are other stuff I want to buy which I could use better... :S)

Regarding the warranty - Yup, that's not a joke. Alchemy has a lifetime warranty. Don't know if they have it stated anywhere black on white, but they will exchange any damaged items, but as I remember you have to go over the retailer from whom you purchased the item - but I'm not sure on this part.

Which hair-stick arrived damaged? Mikado or the Raven Bat one? (Seems like luck hasn't been following you around ebay. )


@ firensia:

Ah! The \"bling-bling\" ring! :woohoo: Sorry, think I already commented something along those lines to another forum member who purchased that ring. Did you pay it full RRP or also got some deal on it?

I paid full price at my local dealer but it wasn't expensive. Only 14.28 GBP including shipping. It is very blingy but I quite like it. That's what I love about Alchemy, they have a great variety of designs.

Yes, fortunately they do. The only thing I don't like about the ring is that it's such a big skull, but overall I like the design idea.
