I signed up- but I somehow feel like I just joined a club that will keep sending me something that will eventually charge me. Oh well, we will see!
 
Well... if you don't give them your CC info, I guess they can't charge you, right?
 
I did a bunch of research on this and did find other people on another forum that was discussing this:

I can't find anything that says this is a scam so I guess I'll try it.
 
Thanks! But couldnt sign up, they have closed it until August 20th... due to overwhelming response.
 
I just got an email from them: :teeth:
Status: The Pearl Earring Give Away

We had a remarkable turn out from those interested in the pearl earring give away. The overwhelming response left quite a few of you out. Not to worry though, we're launching it again in August so stay tuned!

You'll find all the details on your status below:

I confirmed my email address

If you confirmed the email that was sent out then you are good to go and will be among the first to receive your earrings! Your details were entered and confirmed into our database and our computers will be telling us where to ship shortly. Keep an eye out for the mail man!

I signed up But no confirmation e-mail arrived

The computer server was overloaded that day due to the high response, thus, we were only able to deliver a confirmation to a set number of applicants. The good news is even though you didn't confirm your data is still in our database on file. Please keep an eye open for the confirmation email. You might want to add this email address to your safe senders list so the confirmation email doesn't get labeled as spam.
There was no sign up button

With all the people that signed up we removed the button from the sign up form to give us time to catch up with the orders. As previously stated we are opening sign ups again on August 20th possibly before depending on how quickly we can package the current orders.

When will I be getting them?

Just got an e-mail, the important info as follows:

Status: Your Pearl Earrings
Over 60% of all the packages have now been packed and prepared for shipping! Shipments will be sent according to your zip. Eastern America packages will be sent first followed by packages to the west. USPS has informed us we must allow 3 to 6 weeks max for the earrings to arrive due to the sheer quantity of mail that must be sorted.

Overall we had 90% of the sign ups a complete success! The other 10% of the signs ups had a combination of zip/address typos, and individuals breaking the terms of agreement by trying to get more than 1 pair sent to their house under multiple aliases. All orders that broke the TOS agreement have been thrown out.

Thank you once again for your interest and support! We hope you enjoy your earrings!
 
did anyone ever get those fake diamonds?
 
this is still going on, but you have to pay 3.50 for shipping :|
 
I just got this email. :claps:

We are proud to announce that all of the pearl earrings from Phase 1 of our Pearl Earrings campaign have been shipped!

Overall we only have 1000 packages left to ship! The leftover packages are all individuals that recently signed up under phase 2 of our program. The majority of you that ordered a while back are all set!

Again, USPS has informed us that we must allow up to 4 to 6 weeks for the earrings to arrive. We would also like to take the time to thank USPS for their hard work ensuring all the packages were shipped as quickly as possible!

I got that e-mail, also--very confused, tho. Isn't Hawaii part of the United States--like ONE of the states? Four to six weeks to get something from Hawaii to the mainland? Wonder if the dolphins can swim that far...
 
The earrings arrived in my mail today, along with a coupon for a free surprise gift if you purchase something from their site.

I expected teeny tiny seed pearls, but these are a really nice size. Not huge, of course, but you don't need a magnifying glass to see them either. I was pleased with them. :)
 
I got them too today along with the coupon...
and its not fake diamonds.. its pearls...but they're not fake... They're cultured I think.
I like the color though!!
 
Mine came today!! Now I just need some backs to put w/them LOL
 
Just got the mail -- My earrings came. They're a peachish color, pretty, simple, prob. about the size of a small advil or similar round pill. I was surprised that they were mailed in a small white (think thank you card) envelope, in a little baggy, wrapped inside a small sheet of bubble wrap. :) Oh, and my earrings DID have backs.
