I am going to try tonight to get them from Ebay, can't do it from work. Also, all the information is at home on my pc. So, I will tell you tonight where I get them from, I just can't remember the name right now. But, I did do a search and typed in Starfish Necklace under Jewellery and found lots. These are just the ones I liked the most.

My FH will be happy you all picked number 3, its the one he liked the best. Not that he actually really cared which one I picked, he just had to put his opinion out there. lol

Are you getting the Tiffany & Co knockoff? I was looking into that but I know they'll ask if they're real and of course I'll tell them.. if you google search "Tiffany & Co Starfish" They come up on ioffer.com and a couple other places with the pouches/bags/boxes.... lol

little worried because they ship from China though and who knows if their necks will turn green..

It is not a knockoff, they just show it on a tiffany colour background.

I have ordered things that shipped from China many times and I have had no problems at all. Also, my girls would not know if they were Tiffany or not and nor would they ask, so I have no worries there, we are not into that whole name brand thing (my group of friends), if we like it, we don't care who makes it. lol

I can tell you how it looks when I get it. Also, I doubt they would turn green, these sellers need good reviews to get more customers, so they make sure its a good product. I always look at the review first.

Personally... I am so plain... Love #2

This is the listing if anyone is interested

eBay.ca: fancy starfish pendant, 925 Sterling Silver Necklace 83 (item 250141297924 end time 12-Jul-07 18:42:30 EDT)

I emailed them to ask how much it would be for 4 total with shipping to Canada. I will tell you what they say and let you all know.

Thanks for all your input, its greatly appreciated.

This is the only one I could find on the Tiffany site (I am sure it comes in white gold as well), and I don't think it looks anything like the one I am getting, so I don't see how they would think it was a knock off. Just something to think about if that was the reason you were not getting it.

Tiffany & Co. | Item | Elsa Peretti® Starfish pendant, mini. 18k gold. | Canada

BTW, I wish I could afford to buy these for them.

Thanks so much for the link.. I hope you didn't think I was making fun of you or anything..that's so not what I meant. I was really making fun of myself because I too was looking for the starfish necklaces for my girls and I came across a bunch of Tiffany knockoffs and read that E-bay got in big trouble from Tiffany for letting them be sold.

Anyhow I thought it would be fun for them to see the box and wonder.. I want to get them something special, but that would break the bank. They aren't into brands either, but what girl hasn't wanted something out a Tiffany box? lol

I like your choice!

Of course I did not think that!!! I am sorry if you thought that from my response, its funny cause I was just trying to find you the real one so that you did not have to worry about your girls thinking it was real, I was trying to help you in case you wanted to get them as well. lol

You are right though, something in a little blue box would be great in my mind.
