Do not hesitate to add your name... I promissed you all to send the list to Denmark when the list reached 50 names or more... so today, I will send all our names to Denmark with the message that we like the bead but not the book... If they send me a reaction, I will let you know right here. Thank you all so far...

Maybe you can order it also here? Without the book. I did it too.

They want the quartz without the book for the usual price of a collection stone Wink

by PMJ Mon Mar 26, 2012 12:15 pm

Actually The prize don't change with or without the book you pay the same prize... If Trollbeads doesn't do anything... I wait for the combination in Holland in may so I can coose my bead for € 79 ( the bead on the site you give me costs € 84, 06 with or without the book ). I'm still waiting for an answer from Denmark at this moment !!!

by GRUMPY Mon Mar 26, 2012 1:26 pm

I would love the book sooner or later.. not sold on the bead.

by kimvw Mon Mar 26, 2012 2:27 pm

I sent an email to trollbeads myself as well:

I was just wondering if the rutilated quartz will ever be on sale without the book? I love the bead and I don't have the book yet so I will buy the set, but if I would want more rutilated quartz' (I love to mirror my bracelets) I would have to buy them with the books again too. I don't need several coffee table books. There are also alot of trollbead fans who already have the book, but now have to buy the book again to get the bead. Maybe it's an idea to sell them seperately but do some sort of deal that if you buy both the book and the bead you get a certain discount on the total price? That way everyone is happy. Fans that already have the book can buy the bead seperately, fans that don't have the book yet can get one for a nice deal.

I also really like that you rereleased Joyful as a LE. I started collecting late and missed alot of the cool older designs. This is a great chance for new collectors to get an older retired design for a reasonable price. Hopefully it will also reign in the prices some people ask for retired beads on the secondary market. Would you guys ever consider releasing the tulip lock? *wink* *wink* *nudge* *nudge*

This is the reply I got:

Thank you for your mail.

We are currently working on finding a solution for the customers who already have the book, so that they can buy the stone separately. I will get back to you as soon as I have received concrete information on this.

We are happy to hear that the rerelease of Joyful made so many happy, as we have had a lot of request on this bead for the past five years! Nothing has been decided on whether we try it with another bead or not, but suggestions are always welcome;)

Take care for now, I get back to you soon.

by PMJ Mon Mar 26, 2012 4:01 pm

I hope the topic I started with the list is a step in the right direction !!!

Maybe PMJ's email list will push them over the edge regarding the rutilated quartz beads!

AND this gives me a lot of hope for more re-released old classics! "Nothing has been decided"!

by Silmaril Mon Mar 26, 2012 10:46 pm

Great email, and very happy with the response. I have one of the books, and already told my LD I wouldn't be buying another to get the stone. Happy with what they say about retireds, of course that would be the case, never is not forever in business.

by PMJ Wed Mar 28, 2012 6:56 am

Sorry everyone, but I will let you know that I've send my mail to Denmark the weekend and till now I don't have an answer of them... I hope it's quite because they are thinking of a solution for all of us...

by lisa Fri Mar 30, 2012 2:41 am

Wish I'd seen this sooner. I would have happily added my name to the list. It was a great idea to contact Troll PMJ.

The book is wonderful but why would you want 2 copies-- even though it does have my picture with Santa Claus??

this is what Endangered Trolls Posted today.

by PMJ Fri Mar 30, 2012 6:44 am

Like I said earlier in this topic... The problem is that you pay the same price with or without the book and I think that this isn't correct !!!

by casarobi Fri Mar 30, 2012 10:57 am

I'm with PMJ. I think it not correct to pay a huge amount just for the bead.

by LindaJo Fri Mar 30, 2012 1:38 pm

I think TB looks at it this way---the price is for the gemstone bead. The book is "free".

A gemstone with facets, is in the class of € 57... ( exept the ruby ) We have to realize that all the transparent / white of the bead is quartz and only the black is tourmaline... so € 79...

Then TB should realize it's certainly not "free" to pay overseas postage on that heavy book! Shocked

Still have my hopes up that PMJ will get us unencumbered gemstones! pirat

by Louey Fri Mar 30, 2012 3:47 pm

If your looking to buy just the bead without the book www.acotis.co.uk is selling it for £56 as they know most trollbeads collectors already have the book cheers

by PMJ Fri Mar 30, 2012 3:48 pm

I'm sorry, I mailed TB twice and I still have no answer. I sent them my our list, in the hope that they will realize how many peaple like the bead and dislike the book. Hope they will do something !!!

I know but if you have an account you pay 71,45 euro. Not much in my opinion. But I do not know how much shipping outside Europe is Sad
