FFX Jewelry

[merylsilverburg]

I don't know if anyone has created a thread like this, but I was wondering if anyone here is planning on getting the official FFX, Tidus and Yuna jewelry. I'm planning on picking up Tidus' and Yuna's necklace, pinkie ring/ring, and bracelet. I'm also trying to search for the Blitzball, but so far, I'm having no luck. If any of you guys are going to get it, I have a tip: DO NOT GET ANYTHING FROM EBAY, UNLESS THEY ARE FROM JAPAN. I was so excited when I saw millions of auctions for Tidus' ring and Yuna's necklace and ring set, but they turned out to be fakes. I was so angry. :mad:

[Rei]

Yeah, on Ebay can happen to buy fakes believing they're original.
Do you know some Japanese site where to find those goodies?

[merylsilverburg]

No I don't. :( I was planning on going to California or New York during the summer and going to the Japanese towns they have there. Maybe I'll get lucky and snag the jewelry at a game store or something. I heard that they were going to be released in the US during March. I also heard you can get pre-orders, but where, that's where I'm clueless.

[Rei]

So I'll wait till March and see if it's true ;)

[jenova_jeb]

I'm planning to pick up some of the stuff once I get some extra $$$ to spend :rolleyes: .

[merylsilverburg]

Do you know a place to get them?

[jenova_jeb]

I know of some anime/tcg/videogame shops about an hour from where I live. They have everything Final Fantasy. I'm sure they'll have the jewelry, but I don't go there alot, so it may take a while before I get it :rolleyes: .

[merylsilverburg]

Man, you're lucky. I have searched online to find a place where they actually sell them, but nope. Not a thing. All I can do is go to PlayOnline Japan and look at the jewelry and weep. :( I really hope California has them!

[Pu the Owl]

There must be an online shop in the US that imports and sell this kind of goodies.
You just need to look for it very carefully.
Sorry, I can't help you, because I've never purchased this kind of things online.

[merylsilverburg]

Hey, it's no problem. I'm pretty sure I'll find one but it is pretty hard. Some online stores I go to are in pure Japanese and of course, they don't deliver to the US. Other stores that say they carry "import" items, the items are really copies and are from Thailand, China, etc.. The Ebay ones I got.....omigod, they were awful. They looked pretty good on the picture, but when I got it, it didn't even have the .925 stamp engraved. I'm still pissed over that. But, it's my fault for being too stupid! :o

[IcyMourdor]

I don't know of any places that might have the jewelry. I'm still looking for a Grivier pendant from FF8.

[merylsilverburg]

I've got Squall's necklace from Ebay, so I'm pretty sure it's a copy, but I'm satisfied with it anyway. :D It has the .925 engraving, but still, I don't think it's the offical product. I also got Rinoa's necklace with her and Squall's ring on it (a copy too, I bet). But, it really sucks about FFX's, 'cause Tidus' necklace is so cool! There's also the earring, but I don't think I'll get that. I really want the Blitzball though. That looks really cool.

[DragonSphere]

I've seen some in local import shops, but I couldn't buy them since they are so expensive. :(

BTW, isn't the Blitzball just an inflated beach ball?

[Sword 4 Hire]

Wow...I never even knew they made jewelry

I think it is, but the design is different! Which is why I want it even though it just might be an inlated beach ball. That's me, I just like to waste my money on useless stuff. :) By the way, how much were they selling the jewelry that you saw, DragonSphere?

Yeah, they started the jewelry merchandise when FFVIII premiered. I'm not sure about FFVII, but I think Squaresoft only makes jewelry for the tall characters, such as FFVIII and FFX. For FFIX, they only made plushies. I think the jewelry is great for collecting, but you gotta have a lot of cash.

[Soul Angel]

I think the jewelry looks really good I really like Tidus's and Yuna's necklaces, but There really expensive to buy :(
So I think it is going to be very unlikely that I will be getting them, oh well :o

Hey I have some pics of some ffx jewelry.

Yeah and what really sucks is that there are more jewelry this time than there was in FFVIII. In FFVIII, there was only (to my knowledge) Squall's ring, necklace, and keychain, Rinoa's necklace with her and Squall's rings on it, and Seifer's necklace. But now, they have (this info I got from PlayOnline Japan) Tidus' necklace, bracelet, ring, and earring. Yuna's necklace, pinkie ring, bracelet, and extra charm for the necklace. That would cost so much, especially if you order it directly from Japan! :eek:

Yup, yup! That's it! The jewel in Yuna's necklace is really supposed to be turquoise, so beware if you get one with a diamond. At least that's what I heard. I got Tidus' ring on Ebay, but it was a fake because it wasn't that shiny like it is in the pix. Mine was made out of iron. :mad: The Yuna necklace that I also got from Ebay had a diamond, so mine is definitely a fake. :mad:

[jenova_jeb]

I want Tidus' necklace and ring so bad. They're both awesome :eek: .

I think around $50-$60 each necklace, which is pretty much out of my price range.
:(

[merylsilverburg]

What?! No offense.....but that's pretty cheap to me! Does this import store you're talking about really get real imports from Japan? 'Cause I heard that the necklace is 15,000 Yen and converting that to US dollars.....that's around $113.35! By the way everyone....I gave you guys some wrong info. The necklace for Tidus comes in TWO separate parts. You have to get the necklace chain and the pendant separately. Which means you'll have to spend extra $$$. Sorry everyone for giving you the wrong information. That's really stingy though! Buying the chain and the pendant when it could've come in one whole necklace. Damn! By the way, have you guys seen the new FFXI logo? PlayOnline Japan already has two merchandise from the game! It's a keychain and I think a poster. Here is the pic for the logo:

Yuna's Necklace Pendant (Yes, I think you'll have to get her necklace chain and pendant separately too, just like Tidus. Sorry again)

Aren't they cool?! :)

[jenova_jeb]

That's it, I'm getting Tidus' necklace, bracelet, and ring! (looks at pennies, hmmm..... maybe not :( ).

I want his ear-ring too, but it'd be a waste cause I'm not aloud to wear them and they look dumb on me anyways :rolleyes: .

[merylsilverburg]

Yeah, the earring would be cool to collect but it would be a total waste. I hope I can save up enough greens to get Tidus' and Yuna's jewelry, the Blitzball, AND Lulu's dolls. Oh God.....I'll be broke forever! Here is the list of prices:
Tidus' Earring- 3,500 Yen= $26.42
Yuna's Pinkie Ring- 5,800 Yen= $43.78
Yuna's Necklace Pendant- 2,500 Yen= $18.87
Lulu's Dark Cat Sith Doll- 2,000 Yen= $15.00
Tidus' Necklace Chain- 58,000 Yen= $437.73
Yuna's Bracelet- 19,800 Yen= $149.44
Lulu's Moogle- Same
Blitzball- 1,500 Yen= $11.32
Tidus' Necklace Pendant- 15,000 Yen= $113.20
Yuna's Necklace- 21,000 Yen= $158.49
Tidus' Ring- 9,800 Yen= $73.96

OMIGOD! Tidus' Necklace Chain is for $437.73! Can you believe it? Well, it's Japan......everything there is soooo expensive! :(
The Blitzball is only for $11.32! Hmmm....maybe I'll get that first. :D

[jenova_jeb]

I think if I do get the stuff, it'll have to be from a poser company :( . Man that sucks :( :( :( :( .

[Soul Angel]

I really would like to have Tidus's necklace and Yuna's one too, but I'm too poor to get any of them :(

But I was just wondering, does Yuna actually wear a ring in the game?
Its just that I've never seen her wearing a ring in any of the screenshots which I've seen? :confused:

[jenova_jeb]

I'd have to go boot up my system to see, I'm not very observant (sp?) :rolleyes: .

I'm pretty sure they do, it had the official box and everything. Oh, and I forgot to mention I saw those prices in Hawaii during a trip I took. I actually live in California, but haven't found the jewelry heare yet. Sorry. :p

Really? That's funny, the one I saw had BOTH the pendant and the necklace...

[merylsilverburg]

Oh...that's okay, DragonSphere. Hawaii has a lot of Japanese living there too, so now the import store, I believe. :) THAT IS SO GREAT! $50 for the jewelry?! Omigod....I'm going to Hawaii! :D :cool: That's sucks about the jewelry not being in California, but I heard that it was coming out to the US in March, so maybe it's not there 'cause it's not out yet. About the separate pendant and necklace chain....maybe I'm wrong, because I heard from my sister that you would have to get them separately. Augghh....I dunno now. :o

[DragonSphere]

Yes, it's all very confusing. :rolleyes:
