And why does LBB show the Gorjana Gracie earrings as blue when the Gorjana website and comments on LBB shows/says that they are, in fact, green? 

 

[HelloLeilani]

Was going to offer the purple earrings for the Gracie ones but my husband came over and vetoed it. He likes the purple ones better. He describes them as "punk princess" earrings.

I heard from someone that LBB told them that they get stock photos from the suppliers. A person I know got the yellow hope bag and it was different than pictured (pictured changed now), but when they asked why it was a different bag that is what they told her.

My love for Gorjana knows no limits I swear. I'm going to end up offering the purple earrings I fought so hard for. lol.

Don't do it! You must have something else to offer them that's easier to get back? I don't think you'll get the purple ones back unless you open a bag with them.

I bet there will be other chances to get the Gracie ones anyway.

Tough customers today. I'm offering low on some things, even on others, and high on still others...and nothing! I guess I'll be trying to trade up my low stuff and try again later.

That's what they told me too but it's weird when Gorjana's actual website shows a different photo. lol. Pretty earrings either way, but a rather big shock for someone who looooves blue to get bright green earrings. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

That's why I gave up the $80 one, they were on sale for $32 but are now sold out...so I would have kept them just because they were sold out but when I saw the picture it shows the pendant being sideways so it wouldn't lay straight (if that makes since) and would just stick out. I think that would get annoying!

That Disney Believe necklace is one of the few things my sister really wanted. I keep getting even exchange or slightly higher for it. i had to trade $71 to get it! Mine is going nowhere, and I would guess that the other ones who have it now want a really big payday for it, or it's going nowhere with them too.

In the end, I agree with both you and my husband. haha! I've been trying for weeks to get those earrings. There is only one person with them at a time it seems, if at all. I almost opened a bag with them as my main item on many occasions.

 lol.

Haha I had to do it! The people with the stone earrings STILL haven't responded to any of my offers!!! So I wanted at least one crescent thing I really want /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I ended up trading down quite a bit (first for the scarf, then for the MMS clutch) but I LOVE orange...

I really don't need another bag though. so I may take a good 3 item trade that's showing up. At least then I can trade them back up to other things...that scarf and the leather and coin earrings I had before it were seriously going nowhere with trades...maybe it's better this way to start over from the bottom haha

That would be me. I love blues and am iffy on greens. The blue color was what had me considering them, then I saw someone's photo of it and they were definitely green. If the earrings were in the lower price ranges than maybe. I think a lot of Gorjana's stuff is overpriced, but they have some cute pieces and don't mind getting them through LBB.

haha, he loves giving his opinion on my trading. 

I took back my trade offer of the purple earrings for the Gorjana Leo hoops, until I think about it for a while. The Leo hoops went down to $32 on clearance as well, which is even less than what my purple ones went down to on clearance. hahaha. Also, elsewhere online, my purple earrings have a higher "retail" value than it says on LBB. I don't know, I like both almost equally (the clearance prices doesn't actually matter to me, I'm just being a dork, lol) but the purple ones are definitely harder to get on LBB.

O.M.G... I didn't think about how pretty that crescent necklace would go with my stone earrings coming in today! Crap. I may end up opening a bag with them as my main item in the not so distant future. 

 I just wanted it because I have a Sailor Moon obsession and crescents remind me of her.

That's exactly how I plan on expanding my own Gorjana collection. As part of 3-7 things in my LBB haul, it's a fantastic deal, but one piece for $50 to $100+? Pass. Even though it's hard to pass on pieces like the Gorjana Eros necklace. *big siiigh*

Did anyone get the bikini bag yet? I'm thinking about it for my daughter's swimsuit for vacation but I'm not sure about the print.

 

[HelloLeilani]

Oh wow, I never thought someone would take the trade of my nail polish (that I loved, such a gorgeous color) for that brown/gold bracelet. It was the ONLY trade (that wasn't a double item trade) I had out that involved my nail polish! I really want that bracelet to wear with my fringe necklaces I got in recent LBBs. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted it *badly*, until they randomly changed the photo, and it wasn't the brown print with the hot pink writing anymore.
