Posted: Fri Aug 15, 2008 9:24 pm Post subject: Swarovski crystals? Advice needed pls! |
|
|
Hello everyone!
I was just wondering if anyone knows of a good Swarovski crystal wholesaler? I'm still using my wholesaler in USA but now i've moved back to UK could do with finding one here?
I understand that it takes you all alot of hard work & time to find reliable sources  and you may not want to give up names and website's etc - but just a nudge in the right direction would be so greatly appreciated!
Many thanks
Holly  |

Try Crystals4Less. I haven't actually used them myself but I've spoken to them over the phone, and found then very helpful. They've been dealing with Swarovski for about 6 years and can get you anything at all from the range. However, to get the best price you need to buy complete packs and these need to be ordered which takes about 2 weeks. I did a quick price comparison with my US supplier and found there was very little in it.

I saw Crystals4Less at Farnham Bead Fair in July and they are closing down so a lot of their products are sold out.
I use BeadsandCrystals too. _________________ Kelly x

has a reasonable range of 4mm bicones but a bit limited otherwise: good prices.

again, good prices and she has an ebay shop too.
But one really has to shop around for particular colours/shapes.
I also buy from Only registered users can see links on this forum! Register or Login on forum! | - they have 2mm round and 2.5mm bocine, which many shops don't have. _________________ Jen |
