    Hi everyone. Here is a surprise for you! When we were at convention, Alison told me about a new exclusive Harrods solid that will be coming. She didn't have the solid to show or a pic, but I just received an email with a mock-up photo. Here's the info!

    Harrods Wimbledon Solid Perfume Compact.
    Match Point Compact filled in with Pleasures Solid Perfume
    Available in Harrods from 20th May
    £200

    It is really cute but will be almost $400 with the current exchange! YIKES!!!!

    Is this going to be a limited edition?????????

    Are any of the Harrods Solids going to be limited???????

    At £200 a go, it would be good to hear especially if the market is flooded and
    we have the opportunity to buy them through whatever means, at knocked
    down prices!

    Harrods used to state on the little card which accompanied the solid(s), how
    many they were releasing…….

    So, what's up Doc?? <img src='style_emoticons//ohmy.gif’ border=’0′ style=’vertical-align:middle’ alt=’ohmy.gif’ />

    Sorry…no details, the only thing Alison said was that this solid was exclusive to Harrods. <img src='style_emoticons//ph34r.gif’ border=’0′ style=’vertical-align:middle’ alt=’ph34r.gif’ />

    Exclusive to Harrods or not!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will not be buying it.

    £200 pounds is just to much money for a solid. I think it is a bit of a rip off, we all know that some of them will find their way onto ebay one way or another.

    Yeah – sounds like a little sparkly tennis ball is going to be made . . . . or a racquet . . . will be interesting to see where the harrods logo will go.

    I am looking forward to seeing it . . . . don't know about the price yet – will have to see if I like it first! <img src='style_emoticons//cool.gif’ border=’0′ style=’vertical-align:middle’ alt=’cool.gif’ />

    Very pretty. I'm probably going to pass. It's too expensive. Plus I don't play tennis and can't justify buying it. If it were under $200, then maybe later.

    Not sure! My first reaction was that it maybe a little bland……..Taking time
    out and will try and see it first hand to say whether I like it or not.

    The English Emblem was one of their fantastic solids. So pleased I bought it
    although it was less expensive than the tennis racquet. The Emblem was also
    limited

    Have just been looking at the other pictures and there are so many which I do really really want. The Birdcage for one! I was going to buy the older version of the Birdcage but with this one, am having a change of heart. The box with the crystals on the top is beautiful as are the others!

    What to do????????????

    Many, many thanks for the pictures…….appreciate!

    If anyone is looking for a Showgirl or Lucky Hand……..they may help to pay for some of the new ones. And I may sell an English Emblem. <img src='style_emoticons//ph34r.gif’ border=’0′ style=’vertical-align:middle’ alt=’ph34r.gif’ />

    I think I prefer the solids that have the Harrods name on them – particularly the shopping bag and tea caddy.

    Is this the first time there's been a Harrods shopping bag? I thought there was one already… maybe I'm thinking of Saks.

    No Ar, you're right, there was a Harrods Shopping Bag in 2000. Are they running out of ideas? At the current exchange rate I am going to limit myself to the Teddy. I like the others, but that's a lot of money. ( $2000 + shpg )I am also smitten w/all the new US solids, particularly the Foo Dog, Bonsai Tree and Great Wall. I think they will make a nice trio in my curio cabinet. Also love the Airplane & Sailboat. It's never ending.

    STOP THE PRESSES or the phone calls to Harrods as it may be!! I just received a mailer from Nieman Marcus today with a pic of the Pleasures Tennis Racket, available in June 2007 for $250!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought this was a Harrods Exclusive, or so I was told. <img src='style_emoticons//blink.gif’ border=’0′ style=’vertical-align:middle’ alt=’blink.gif’ />

    I will call Niemans tomorrow and find out the scoop.
