KSCnCA Posted August 20, 2004 #1 Share Posted August 20, 2004 In early May we ordered a bottle of wine and HAL glasses from Ship Services for a gift to be delivered to my parents on a Dec cruise. When the credit card billing didn't show up by August we finally called Ship Services and were told that the item was discontinued and they would fax us a new order form, which of course, has nothing similar on it . Does HAL sell wine glasses with their logo in the ship's gift shop? We are really disappointed about this. We don't really want to send flowers and thought the wine glasses would be a good keepsake. Does anybody have any ideas for us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted August 20, 2004 #2 Share Posted August 20, 2004 I haven't seen any wine glasses with the HAL logo on them for sell in the boutiques - but I could be wrong. HAL had cut back on a lot of items with logo on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LAFFNVEGAS Posted August 20, 2004 #3 Share Posted August 20, 2004 The only thing I remember in the gift shop was the Coffee Mugs and the Thermal Mugs. I would like to have HAL Wine or Champagne glasses myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted August 20, 2004 #4 Share Posted August 20, 2004 I don't think you can even buy any at the bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakrewser Posted August 21, 2004 #5 Share Posted August 21, 2004 Can anyone ell me if they still sell ship magnets on board? You know, the ship name in gold on a black background. There weren't any on the Volendam last October, but the clerk said they had "just sold out" during the previous cruise. But I also haven't seen any mention of them on these boards.....:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSCnCA Posted August 21, 2004 Author #6 Share Posted August 21, 2004 Well, it sounds like I should start selling HAL wine and champagne glasses! It's not that hard to do, I am surprised they don't offer them. When produced in large quantities they are darn cheap! We had 72 wine glasses made for our parents 50th anniversary party and gave them to the guests. The cost was about $6 each for glasses with our own design on the side in 24K gold and a gold rim. It was about 5 years ago, so the cost will have gone up, but just think of the quantities HAL could sell and the price they could get! Maybe they are just too fragile to deal with? HAL: if you are listening, take heed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterlovers Posted August 21, 2004 #7 Share Posted August 21, 2004 I am looking at the gift order form I just printed online from the HAL website and item 502 under the "wine and beverage" is ...HAL Logo wine glasses PLUS a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon, Robert Mondavi, Oakville $69.00:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSCnCA Posted August 21, 2004 Author #8 Share Posted August 21, 2004 That is what is discontinued! They sent us an updated order form, most of the same stuff but nothing with wine glasses! :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted August 21, 2004 #9 Share Posted August 21, 2004 I didn't want to get you hopes up, but we had down loaded HAL's gift packages and 502 was listed on it - just down loaded it a couple of weeks ago. Just goes to show how quickly HAL changes things. Guess I can throw out that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't recall the cost but think they were around $5.00 each. Seemed to me they were one of the most attractive souviners and do not look at all tacky. I hope they have not discontinued them.
