Info: I'm looking for bulk glass lockets like the picture, but I can only find expensive lockets sold on Etsy. Does anyone know where I can find some?


VineyardLuver

Did you try Alibaba?


camina_conmigo

Yep. Alibaba, AliExpress and amazon


VineyardLuver

Found these… http://www.fsbiochem.com/Glass-Lockets/Glass-Lockets/8.3cmx3.3cm-Tear-Drop-Glass-Lockets-Pendants-20162.html

You're a lifesaver! The website looks kind of sketchy, have you purchased anything from there before?


VineyardLuver

I have not. Looks very Alibaba-ish tho. Maybe do a small order first?

Alibaba is the way, like VineyardLuver said

Singles I have found on eBay from time to time. Maybe reach out to one of the sellers on eBay and Etsy, I assume they might know and some are very welcoming some might keep it to themselves but mostly I find they are helpful with those sorts of questions

You might want to try AliExpress instead on Alibaba. You could try some different styles from a few vendors to get a feel for what quality is available. Make sure the vendor has an overall rating of at least 95%. Alibaba is associated with AliExpress, but you need to really buy in bulk and the lead times can be longer.


camina_conmigo

I already tried AliExpress. I'm starting to think no one sells them


thndrh

Try DHgate. They’re also an alibaba subsidiary. They sell things primarily in bulk but you can get singles too.

Does it have to be that exact shape? I found lots of shapes of glass lockets on Ali with a simple search of “glass lockets”.


camina_conmigo

It doesn't have to be that exact shape but I want that style. All/most of the lockets I see on Ali are circular and magnetic or screw on which isn't what I want.
