I’m sure that crystal fanatics wish they had a crystal ball (pardon the pun) to know how this one is going to sell in the future: buy only one for their collection, or buy several in hopes of making a few bucks? (Reminder….Swarovski indicates on their web site that quantities are limited to 3 per person). I have purchased mine (just one). One thing for sure: you’ll want place your order now, so that you won’t have to pay secondary market prices to add this Swarovski Limited Edition to your crystal collection later.
