On 6/14/2013 Vickie00 said: FYI. I just called CS because the June InsideQ magazine had the TSV price as $279.50 and now on air it's $289.90 so over a $10 increase. After I told the rep what page I was looking at, he finally came back and said it was a "misprint". I don't know if I buy that as a misprint on a TSV is a big deal in my eyes. Anyway, he asked if I wanted to order the bracelet. I didn't buy it but think he would have honored the lower price. And I also see that the item number changed. It was suppose to be J279541 if you ordered it today. I think QVC just decided to raise the pric... Continue Reading

 

Re: "Argento Nuovo" -- now they're doing sterling over resin, too

Perhaps it isn't marked differently because like with gold, if it can hold its own form without the resin, then it does not need any other stamp on it. Also, isn't there a way a jeweler would know there isn't something inside when they test it? That little wand thing they touch the gold with that tells them if it is 14k or 18k etc.? Doesn't that tell them if there is something else in there? I agree that it would be good to have another stamp on it if it is filled with jewelry-grade resin (lol) because how does the average person buying it know? They may pay big bucks going by weight wh... Continue Reading

I was a little hesitant when Lisa said the factory was overwhelmed making the TSV's so had to enlist the help of 21 of their local friends to help make the cuffs. She said they were artisans, but I still think of "temporary" help for a cuff that will be well over $300 to get it to your door. I would have left that little tidbit of info out. I am liking the byzantine bangle. Continue Reading

Unfortunately I could not decide so I got 2. The multi and the London blue. I also got the multi earrings this morning. I love the sleeping beauty. I have held back the rest of the day by talking myself out of it. I always think I get better deals on the sales on shopnbc. Over the years I have got some really nice jewelry from them. Out of the three choices the multi was my favorite. I didn't order because I... Continue Reading

I agree that Lisa says "absolutely" too much, but oddly it doesn't bother me. I like Lisa doing the Italy shows but would enjoy watching Antonella do them as well. Continue Reading

On 6/14/2013 faeriemoon said: Someone said it's sterling over stainless steel. I don't think it's worth the price even if it were all sterling, so IMO the $249 price tag is a real rip-off. It isn't stainless steel that is clad in silver. It is two separate pieces. The stainless steel is supposed to make it stronger and keep its shape and the silver weave around it is all silver. It is a separate silver piece over a separate steel piece. It is pretty but I am not ordering it. Continue Reading
