The cheapie from Ebay is the full size one right? Is there a knock off of the smaller factory size one? (besides baublebar=all sold out)
I didn't like this necklace at all at first - well, the big one, anyway - but now I kind of really want the factory one! but I don't want to pay so much for it. You guys really infiltrated my brain and made it so I couldn't stop thinking about this freaking necklace. :-|
No. sorry, I just measured the one I have and they are also same 16" as the ones I posted. I am going to remove those links.. those are not the smaller version. Sorry.

I have the ebay version and I like it. It's cute and fun and for $15, I shouldn't complain. BUT...I just saw the factory version this weekend and it is stunning in person. It's definitely more high quality, and the faceted beads create a really luxe effect. My store was selling it for $88 with 20% off. It makes my ebay version look like a F21 piece.

MsAmy - thanks for the input! DAMN I want the factory version, for 20% off though! My J crew factory is practically in Mexico though and I don't want to go all the way there.
I agree with MsAmy. I saw the factory ones in person and the big one too and the finish on the real things are much better! I am looking at the one I got from bellasposa and while the bubbles are fine, the metal finish is definitely cheap looking. You get what you pay for of course.

Hmm....Maybe you can call a store and ask them to ship it to you for a small fee.

I don't think the factory stores do that. Too bad! Maybe I can ask my mom to go for me.... that way I don't have to go to Mexico for it... lol. OK OK It's only a 15 minute drive from my work.... and it really is on the border with mexico! Should I do turquoise? or yellow? I actually wanted the red but beggars can't be choosers!
