He loves the little cruise book they sell ( sold), little ships and knows about our upcoming cruise. He usually gets a tee shirt from the ship, and a representative stuffed animal from each port. . I think they will add more stuff. I asked about Christmas ornaments and they said "not yet." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FolsomMike Posted December 13, 2018 #27 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I haven’t seen any mention of the shop where they sell items made from the ship steel. Can anyone comment on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oville Posted December 13, 2018 #28 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Funny, we saw this cart near the Martini Bar but can’t remember what was being sold, guess not interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone comment on it? It's called the Gem, I believe. If you scroll down here, it describes jewelry inspired by the ship's architecture. I'm going to look for it when I go back in January.. https://www.celebritycruises.com/edge/onboard-experiences/shops/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Edge shop is pretty small - my guess is that it will sell the higher end stuff and the less expensive stuff like cotton t-shirts, toys, etc. will probably be sold on tables in the hallway like they do on the other X ships. At least, I hope they will have some cheaper stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisestitch Posted December 15, 2018 #33 Share Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) No and I just realized the photo isn’t very good. You can’t see the Magic Carpet shaped slider on the two chains. It’s behind the top corner of the glass display case. Will try again tomorrow.

Rare cruisestitch Posted December 15, 2018 #36 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Pretty reasonable considering the price of T-shirts. Slider necklace 200, bracelet 250, magic carpet cufflinks 175 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisestitch Posted December 16, 2018 #39 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) One last comment about shopping on the edge. There were no $10 sales. Well there were no $10 items to start with either. Obviously the ship is Too new to have any clearance sales.But there were no bargain racks in the hallways like you see on other ships, No pashminas Or evening bags or big floppy hats or any of the stuff that ends up on the tables outside the shops. And another thing which was very welcome, there were no advertising inserts in the daily program. Edited December 16, 2018 by cruisestitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not like the current Tiffany catalogue items in my price range, and Cartier is out of range. But a little birdie told me I might get the dancing diamond necklace I have been longing for..As I mentioned, it is a big birthday.! Still would like to browse for costume jewelry..those little tropical bracelets are great gift items..,,..need gifts for my grandson....even postcards.

Hope shopping for those little things has improved oooh.... DH bought me a nice Cartier watch.... this held us up at customs for a very very long time....only one agent working. Oh and the cruise line took our sea passes and we never got them back. We kinda collect those! I reached out to Celebrity and they were going to see if they kept them.. never heard back. I would get a customs declaration form before you get on the ship... because guest relations will tell you that you don't need it... then while the long wait they hand you a form to fill out... it was a mess. You might do better making a purchase off the ship... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your experience highlights a good reason not to buy really expensive items on board...but they are fun! Glad to hear about the tee shirt sales!

Caribbean Chris Posted January 20, 2019 #45 Share Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) Noticed this post. I definitely saw different merchandise on our January 6 cruise than I've ever seen before on X. In expensive stores (and once on a Royal Viking Line ship) I've admired these pricey Alviero Martini "1' Classe" designer handbags and totes with vintage map designs for years, but always too $$$ for me. This time I had a lot of use it-or-lose it OBC.😃 Yay! I'm not much of a shopper and like to take home odds & ends for friends and neighbors but little goodies like inexpensive jewelry, scarves, etc are still not available on Edge.

Cotton is my friend...so maybe just a plain tee for me, Sadly then you won't find it on the Edge. The $55 t-shirt is the least expensive one they sell.

Rare C-Dragons Posted January 20, 2019 #47 Share Posted January 20, 2019 It's good to hear that they will be adding more items, hopefully at better price points, to the stores on Edge. Looking at the pictures of merchandise taken on the preview cruises, it is apparent that there wasn’t a lot left by the time we boarded on Dec. 9th. It was kind of strange that the stores only had very high priced items in very limited quantities. Others on the cruise were disappointed too. I ended up purchasing a journal for my granddaughter in the Malala store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
