I'm sorry, but I cannot negotiate on the price. This is a pendant from the brand H.Dubin. The original cord was a light purple rubber, but it stretched and discolored, so I tried to replace it but gave up. I couldn't find the same kind of rubber, so I tried using a string, but the look changed, so I decided it would be better for someone with an idea to use it. The original rubber is on the left side of the second photo. I will send it in the condition it was in when I gave up.
