You must have not read all the prior threads warning about this. Believe it or not some say they don't care.

I'm sorry you fell for the bs. It's like the bronzo story, it's all c*ap. it's costume jewelry plain and simple.

I would never buy this stuff especially at the prices they are asking.

I prefer HSN's Technibond because at least it's gold over sterling silver.

Michelle--there absolutely is something you can do--call CS and tell them you are returning this defective bracelet. It doesn't matter if it is over a year. The worst case scenario is they will deduct the original S&H from your refund--but if it is defective QVC should absorb the cost of both your cost to return and the original S&H.

Bronzo is definitely not gold - they say that every time they present it! And even with the gold-colored BI, it's one color all the way through. How could it wear off?

I don't think the Oro Nuovo should wear off so quickly, but because OP doesn't seem to listen well, I'm wondering if she even bought Oro Nuovo. Hate to assume this is a fake post, but I'm going to assume, that at the very least, some of it isn't true because some of it is just not accurate.

Not surprised at all. At these prices you will get only gold dust over the resin.

Yeah, this resin (or silicone) filled deal just gives them license to use the very thinnest gold sheeting possible. Wouldn't touch it. I would save that money toward a quality gold product.

In reference to the Bronzo, mentioned at the end of the OP's post, I'm not sure what they think the 'bronzo' (whatever all that is) will wear off OF, but I think it's also over-priced. Is that Bronzo line also something that is layered over something else? I have to admit that I've never watched presentations of it, as I knew going in that I had no interest in it.

In regards to the Bronzo, some people have reported that they are seeing "wear". I believe it is the tarnish resistant coating wearing off. And I'm sure body chemistry plays a roll as well.
