1.0 out of 5 stars Nice earrings, but what's with the color?, September 29, 2010

So, I got this item and I loved it. They felt nice in my ears and didn't hurt at all.

Well, that all changed a few weeks later. I had wore these earrings for pretty much 24/7. I took them out to let my ears breathe to find out that one of the earrings had turned a gray color with bronze coloring underneath it/mixed in. I also noticed that the back wire part of the earring looked like it was about to snap off. I really like the look of these earrings, but a total of $10 is a little pricey for a single pair of earrings that seem to wear pretty easily and are questionable quality.

I then sent a message asking about the earring quality and the problem I was having, and all they said was that it was sterling silver and that I could return the RING for a refund. Firstly, I didn't order a ring, I ordered a pair of EARRINGS. Secondly, they seemed rather rude in the message. You think a company would apologize, and explain why the item turned out this way and maybe even offer to send a replacement. I'm just a bit baffled. No I don't plan on making a refund, seeing how i'd have to PAY to mail them back. I'll just keep the pair and take my business else where.

1.0 out of 5 stars disappointing in the long run, January 30, 2011

I'm wondering if the company Sabrina Silver shipped different products to different people, because my experience was right in line with the reviewers who said the earrings started out fine but then discolored and caused (mild) infection at the piercing site. At times I've had sterling silver earrings tarnish and was able to re-polish them with conventional silver polish, but these appear to have worn down to base metal, so it looks as if they were silver plated and not sterling silver at all. I have multiple ear piercings and typically successfully leave earrings in the upper holes without taking them out for cleaning very often, but it took about 3 or 4 weeks for these completely to deteriorate, and my ears are not particularly sensitive; IOW, I often do fine with dollar earrings!

Yes, the style was exactly what I wanted but for something that didn't last and did not remain comfortable or wearable the price was far too high. However, I've bought other jewelry from Sabrina Silver that has been wonderful, which is the reason I'm asking if products got switched off in some cases.

1.0 out of 5 stars Cheap Metals, NOT Sterling Silver, September 29, 2010

This review is from: 2mm Sterling Silver Ball Stud Earrings (Electronics)

I received this product as a gift and within days the "silver" coating wore off exposing cheap metals, which ended up infecting my ear. Originally these were intended to be used as a nose stud (as the description claims they can be used as) which is not true at all. Nose studs DO NOT have an earring back. Trying to wear this as a nose stud is painful and unsanitary. This product is NOT made of sterling silver. Avoid this product if cheap metals irritate your skin!
