FYI,
There is a difference in the making of the charms that could show up after a while. The "high quality" charms are stainless steel, 18K gold, and enamel. The "inferior" charms and also stainless steel, but the enamel is just paint. It's not a true enamel. I have had my bracelet for about a year, wear it about once a week, and I have one "inferior" charm that has now lost all of the enamel paint color.

I'm holding out hope that they'll have a WDW charm by the time I go in Oct. I know, wishful thinking. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
