Trollbeads Royal Orange and Aurora

I'm hoping that the Aurora bead is not sold only with the bangle, but I will not be surprised if it is.

My LD has said that the Aurora will only be available with the bangle & is released on the 19th of April.

It does seem unfair - especially for someone whose already bought a bangle....

Oh thats a good answer - bangle und Aurora - i am happy -

Thanks for sharing the news :-)

It's a shame TB are only selling as a set, it will just be a repeat of the ring and Pink Prism fiasco thateveryone hated. We can look forward to overpriced Aurora beads on the secondary Market or mad frenzies on FB and lots of unwanted bangles going cheap. I bet all those who have already got a bangle will be seething. Who would want two bangles?

Also why limit your market sales ? I dont have a bangle for they are over priced and even a aurora bead added is still over priced. so many people will not buy this for the money and today is there any value in TB?
More business for the artisan bead makers.

I already have a bangle, so will be very disappointed if you can't purchase the aurora bead seperately.... As much as I love my bangle, I don't have the funds to buy a duplicate just to get aurora

Christa made glass beads much like the Aurora bead. Since I got quite some of those similar colored beads, this 'offer' is not tempting me... as I've got two bangles already...

Both beads are beautiful. The auroraset is my favorite.
I think I have to go for one of these! Have been longing for a bangle for a while now.

The Aurora looks like it's made fom Double Helix glass..I've had beads like this made by Jacqui Swain (Dolly beads) too...very pretty but I don't want a bangle...

I hope that they will be available separately if there is enough demand.

The Aurora looks interesting but if it comes only as a set - no way !

I don't have a bangle so might be tempted BUT if the bead sold separately I would buy at least 4 probably more so why force me to buy a bangle when I would happily buy lots of the beads on their own


Anyway I don't believe the hype any more, I'm sure given time the beads will be available singly

Big shame if Aurora is only sold as a set, because although I don't have a bangle, the Aurora bead is one I can imagine myself having multiples of. But multiple sets - no thanks!
I'm sure some shops will break the rules anyway, but then again - that's sort of screwing over the loyal shops who follow rules.

It seems the aurora is defenitely part of a (gift)set-with-bangle. TB should be ashamed of herself to 'reward' her loyal buyers who already have a bangle.

TB can keep Aurora, there are other beads I love and my money is not reserved to such an awkward business,

I am an independent woman!

That really does seem to show a lack of understanding of how TB buyers shop... I could see me buying several of these if they were available individually, because they're bound to vary like the azure bubbles. But as it is... I won't even be buying one

Hear, hear! You tell them, Catsworld.

Silly not to offer both the set and singly and keep everyone happy. TB seems to love these ridiculous marketing schemes, limited editions, etc. making fools of us and themself in the process. Enough nonsense!

I think both are beautiful. UU core would be fine with me, since I currently have more Pandora and other larger core bracelets and beads than I have TB. I also would not buy the bangle set. I don't like the open design of the TB bangle, I am planning to get the Pandora bangle when it is released next month.

Saw them both today the Aurora is beautiful and normal core size its just a shame you have to buy a bangle which i already have so won't be bothering as for the orange facetted bead i thought i would love it but it was so bright it was almost dayglow not at all warm like the images i'd seen so will have to pass on this release
