My wife is driving me nuts about a Pandora charm that you can only get in Asia.

Here is a link to what it looks like. It is the silver dangle one 3rd from the left.

http://pandoraaddict.wordpress.com/2012/01/25/latest-updates/

Part number is Dragon Dangle Silver #790991

Looking for someone who would not mind buying it and shipping to me. In return let me know what I can do for you.

I know this is a long shot but hey you never know.

    I'm in Japan, I'll check tomorrow. Current time on deck is 10:52 pm so everything is closed now. Let me do some home work on it. You simply pay for your items and shipping, that's all that is required on my end.

    Definitely a Chinese piece but probably available throughout East Asia? Sorry can't help out at the moment. Might be able to ask my sister-in-law about it. She's involved in the import-export business from China but it's not always easy to get a hold of her.

    Sherardp, what do you have? Did you find some?

    Have the items in hand gents. I have the items packed in the original Pandora Tokyo bags, with official catalogs from Pandora Japan (may have cool factor) written in Japanese . Also included are receipts and business card from Pandora Japan, this is the official stuff.

    Pics to confirm, and to show you what I'm talking here.

    Sherardp, My wife just passed out after seeing the picture. Not only did you get the Dragon but she pointed out the money bag charm as well.

    Huge thank you to you and your wife for doing this and I can not thank you enough !

    In a huge way you have helped me get a Joule Electra LA-150 SE (new) preamp.

    Sir, I owe you in ways you cant believe.

    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE call on me if ever I can return the favor.

    If your wife wears Pandora my wife has a rare charm she would like to send her.

    That small red packet is a spicy powder, you add to your curry to spice it up. I sent you a PM on how to make the curry as well. Let me know. Nice pic btw.
