Rainbow-London?

Anyone know what's happened to Rainbow-London? Their website went off for maintenance a few weeks ago and is today totally gone.

I wasn't a buyer but more interested in their oddly low priced Swarovski crystals...

Even Google says it's undergoing maintenance and not picking up any of the previous key words. Rolling Eyes

There were threads about this subject on the board some time ago. Might be worth searching them out as we all offered some interesting theories on their prices at the time ROTFL

Rainbow- London used to have an Ebay shop and that's gone too. Confused

interesting, maybe Swarovski caught up with them?

I buy from a company who is ''partner'' with Swarovski, only a few selected companies can have this ''status'' with them, to which they guarantee their best prices, although with strict rules. There is a limit on how low you can sell Swarovski beads before becoming suspicious.

I was on the mailing list for Rainbow London's newsletter and I got one ages ago saying they were selling off all their swarovski stock and concentrated on the czech glass that had started to appear.

They said they couldn't stay competitive so weren't going to supply Swarovski anymore.
