cruiserjanet Posted October 23, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 23, 2015 When we were on the Ruby a week ago, they were out of the Princess 50th Anniversary Charm. I have sent an email to Princess to find out how I can get it. Our next cruise isn't until next year. Anyone have any other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yensidlove Posted October 23, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Hello, The charm is available for me to select when I go into my cruise personalizer for our upcoming cruise on the Royal next week. I am willing to order the charm in advance on my personalizer and then pick it up on board for you if you're not able to find one. My email is kruzkrazee@gmail.com Let me know if you'd like me to try to get one for you. Thomasina :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserjanet Posted October 23, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted October 23, 2015 They were completely out and had been and weren't sure when they would be getting any. If I don't hear from corporate in the next week, I will call them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyosma Posted October 23, 2015 #4 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Be careful if you pay ahead. If they are out of them I don't think you will get a refund, you will have to pick something else. I ordered ship specific cards on the Royal last year and they didn't have them when I boarded - I don't think they make them for the Regal/Royal. No refund, no matter what. So I had to pick something else of equivalent value. I wound up with a goofy fridge magnet. Good luck!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else who can comment on a similar situation? Well, since you can call to order - I do for the UBD - you could ask before you order. Get the person's name and note it and the date you ordered. That might help. They might know if there is any stock left as well. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheeseclan Posted October 24, 2015 #11 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Ihsail, What we did for our Ruby cruise this past May: I went on the roll call site and asked if anyone on the cruise prior to mine would be kind enough and go to the gift shop and have them hold one for me. Someone was nice enough to do this. I just gave them my name and cabin number and it was waiting for me on my cruise the following week:) Hope this helps!

cruiserjanet Posted October 25, 2015 Author #12 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Thank you for your responses. I'm going to call Princess this week and see what I can find out. I believe that if they are out of stock on the ship then we should be able to get them off the ship. If they say I am out of luck, I have taken someone up on her offer to get me two (one of me and one for my BFF who went with us) and will update this thread with what I find out.

cruiserjanet Posted October 27, 2015 Author #13 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I received a call from the Princess Boutiques Department this morning and she said they don't sell items post-cruise and they are in the process of restocking the ships. A friend has offered to get two on her upcoming cruise. What's sad is that if they are out of an item on the ship that I would really like, then I'm out of luck, especially if it's something that they may not ever have again. Fortunately there are not a lot of things that I would really like that I can't get on the ship, but the charm is one thing that I want. I think I am missing something here.

cheeseclan Posted October 28, 2015 #14 Share Posted October 28, 2015 cruiserjanet I will be on the Emerald Dec 27 of this year. I can see if they have one of the charms if you would like. Just let me know at cheeseman3@comcast.net Cheeseclan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notentirelynormal Posted October 28, 2015 #15 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Well, because of this thread, I now know they have the charm and have ordered two of them. Might buy a few more for the kids and grandkids too. I'm not a big charm bracelet person but this seems unigue and fun since we've been cruising Sitmas, now Princess, since the 1970s.

cruiserjanet Posted November 2, 2015 Author #16 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I just got a letter from Princess informing me that they are sold out of the 50th Anniversary charm. I have a friend on the Ruby right now so I will wait to hear from her and see if they say anything different. I'm not counting on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let everyone know when I get back. I had to pay in advance so they have my money and even though it isn't a life or death thing for me, I will make a stink that they are selling something that is not available. They still show available on the cruise personalizer though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geocruiser Posted November 2, 2015 #18 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Do you know how much the charms cost? And do they fit a Pandora bracelet? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserjanet Posted November 3, 2015 Author #19 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Do you know how much the charms cost? And do they fit a Pandora bracelet? Thanks They are $20 each and do fit the Pandora bracelet. My BFF and I were hoping for one to add to ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiserjanet Posted November 4, 2015 Author #21 Share Posted November 4, 2015 A friend is on the Ruby and emailed me that she was able to get them. She gets home in 1-1/2 weeks so I should get them sometime after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
