in2up2 Posted August 7, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 7, 2019 When we sailed on one of the Edge preview cruises last December, there were no ship magnets for sale in the gift shops. Does anyone know if there are now magnets, and better yet, if someone is sailing her soon, would they be willing to pick me up one and send it to me?

Cruise a holic Posted August 7, 2019 #2 Share Posted August 7, 2019 We were also on for the New Years sailing- they didn't have magnets nor any inexpensive trinkets. We did purchase a beautiful crystal replica of the ship which wasn't very expensive and really nice. I also purchased a necklace- but it broke! We will be on the ship again in March and I will see if they can fix or replace the necklace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtcruising Posted August 7, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I had my own stuff made. I found a company online to make notebooks and pens from Edge pictures (not copyrighted) to give to people who helped with our roll call cabin crawl. I also had a tote made for a very special person's birthday. I made calling cards for my DH and I to have in case anyone asked for our info onboard, an iphone cover and a mouse pad. I didn't order an magnets, but maybe next time! 🙂 Everything was pretty reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A great way to spend a milestone birthday! Maybe I will do that at my next milestone ..... 40th coming up in a few years ....😉 I really hope they put a "lower end" shop on the Apex so that we can get some official little souvenirs. 🙂 Edited August 7, 2019 by vtcruising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALWAYS CRUZIN Posted August 7, 2019 #6 Share Posted August 7, 2019 No magnets just a bottle opener engraved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted August 7, 2019 #7 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Guess we'll go for the key chain.. I did get the nice EDGE Prism necklace for myself and a swarvoski ( sp?) necklace for my dtr , but they had zero for my grandchild...dh or sil.. Dh looked bad in the hat and the $95 sweatshirt was a No! I already have plans to buy gifts shoreside in Nov. Was caught off guard last time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJSailors Posted August 7, 2019 #8 Share Posted August 7, 2019 From what I have read about the Edge and the direction Celebrity is taking with their new ships, high end shops is the type of shops that will be on the ships. Celebrity seems to be trying to focus on a passenger demographic that is young and trendy. Not the sort of passenger interested in purchasing magnets and trinkets.

MHO I agree that is what they started out with on the Edge, but they soon listened to those of us who might be "magnet-buyers" and instituted paper trivia (had been all electronic initially), loungers and coffee tables in suites when received feedback, a book exchange cart and some other tweaks, so maybe will listen to feedback about having some lower end souvenirs. Seems like they are trying to keep as many people happy as possible. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted August 7, 2019 #10 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I didn't see anything very special for the young and trendy or anyone else..Coach Bags , Tiffany jewelry ( same as in the catalogue) John Hardy..... I am a shopper and there's not much exciting stuff in the shops that I could see .Not even a Brito scupture...or little wooden puzzles like ones we enjoyed in EDEN.. What would be young and trendy? Perhaps an EDEN costume???. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebInAntigua Posted August 9, 2019 #11 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I would love an Edge magnet. We plan to (try) to collect one for each ship we've sailed. It's an inexpensive way to bring back memories... see them on the fridge every day as I get milk for my morning coffee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtcruising Posted August 9, 2019 #12 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I did get a magnet for my fridge and cherish it. My buddy who led a group of 24 women on a journey on the Edge gave me one their group’s magnets on my Jan cruise. It was a fun group!!😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
