I feel guilty for getting one.{#emotions_dlg.sad} Hopefully this is the same situation as the gold fish necklace -- where only a few got to order before they were sold out, and then a day later, more were in stock (and last I checked, STILL available).

Don't feel guilty for even a second. Congratulations to you for getting one.

Re: J288023 Silver Fish is up to order!

This may not make anyone feel any better who wants one of these & is missing out again because the Q can't get it's head out of it's, um, sandbox when it comes to adequate orders, but last year when I missed out on the gold version & really wanted a silver one, I found a great substitution in a genuine vintage sterling silver Taxco articulated fish skeleton pendant. I found it on Etsy, although similar ones sometimes turn up on ebay as well. It's 4" long, a little wider than the Linea version with a large enough bail to accommodate many chain widths , fabulous, & cost me $50. It's just the kind of boho jewelry look that LDO is always showing with his casual clothes, & some of you might love it, too. Worth consideration if you can't get the Linea version.

Re: J288023 Silver Fish is up to order!

I canceled mine last night when I realized how many of you really really wanted this one. I just wanted it to do the outfit Louis showed with the blue shirt. I figured that wasn't enough of a reason to deprive someone who would wear it 2-3 times a week from catching her fish. I figured the most democratic way of getting it into another's hands was to cancel so that it would go to the first waitlist in line.

Re: J288023 Silver Fish is up to order!

A backorder will normally process, but a wait list can be uncertain. The only good thing is that there is a wait list offered, and it doesn't show "sold out". Maybe if the buyers realize there are a lot of us on wait list for the silver fish, they will place a reorder. I hope so, at least.

I checked yesterday evening, and there were only 22 gold fish still available. I did order the gold fish, and placed the silver fish on wait list.

Not up to me to convince you, but as I own the gold I can say that the picture doesn't even come close to what this looks like in real life.

Also, while you're entitled to your opinion blah, blah, blah, is there really a need to be nasty?
