Re: RIPKANISTAS, Which Do You Prefer?… Need Your HELP!!

Since you already have ice cube in ss, get the pave in clad. It looks stunning and instead of having 2 similar ones, you will have 2 different great pieces to enjoy. Also, I do not have any toggle bracelets, but few necklaces that I own have toggles and they are ok, and I'm just more careful with them as oppose to when I wear regular clasp.

Re: RIPKANISTAS, Which Do You Prefer?… Need Your HELP!!

WOW! Thank you ALL for your wonderful advice!! And wouldn't you believe, just as I made my decision to get this toggle bracelet home because I can't stop thinking about it, I turn the TV on (totally forgetting Ripka had a show on) and lo & behold they're showing THIS bracelet!! BUT now my size is sold out!!!!! Are you kidding me?? I am completely disappointed! My wrist is on the teensy side so size Small would have been my ideal fit. Now I have the option to get the Average or nothing at all. Not sure if this bracelet would look good with a lot of drape. Ugh! I just can't believe it!! {#emotions_dlg.ohmy}

Oh no!! I agree, go on wait list if you can. I have a small wrist and the small is perfect.

Thank you kaplan for the welcome. I was considering waitlist but just really dislike going that route because my experience with waitlist means that's usually somebody else's return.

Furthermore, I have a birthday coming up in just a couple of weeks and thought this was going to be my present to myself and something I can make my signature.

Just my luck, the ONLY bracelet that's on waitlist is the one I NEED! Small in Gold Clad! ALL THE REST are available! {#emotions_dlg.angry}

Wondering if Average would be too big and not look good with this one?

If you're unhappy with WL you can always return. I have a 6" wrist and got the average and hope it has room to play b/c I like drape. But you don't want it to be so loose that it falls off. Your call, but I'd do WL, which I did for the necklace.

I would never give up the ice cube bracelet for the toggle bracelet. Not in a milion years!

Hi Sheesh, I totally agree with you, my silver ice cube bracelet is my favorite bracelet from Judith's line! Nothing sparkles like it!

Go on the Waitlist---a lot of people put the piece on Check Hold and then change their minds and don't send the check in---then the item is released back into inventory to fill Waitlist orders. Also, people cancel their orders before they ship, etc. You are not necessarily getting a return item.

Re: RIPKANISTAS, Which Do You Prefer?… Need Your HELP!!

OP is "concerned" and "trying to decide" and "asking for help" and "having heart palpitations" and "visiting a bracelet online every ten minutes"? Ye Gads. You people do know Judith Ripka doesn't even design the QVC line any more, don't you? Imported, mass-produced stuff designed and made by Xcel for the Ripka label.

Maybe you should just step back and think this through for a minute or two. {#emotions_dlg.crying}
