Not especially. 

When I lose the TV controller, it's always in some remote destination.

I am enjoying it although I missed most of Gem Day- had to work long hours today, just trying to catch up.  I am adding items to my wish list and then will pick my favorite at the end of the day!

It really hasn't been all that great to me. Prices are too high on a lot of what I am seeing. During their "Colors of Sapphire" show, I really liked the bracelet in choices of sapphire color on a sterling silver adjustable chain, but, good grief -- it was over $200.00! I've seen similar items on JTV for far lessMan Frustrated

I don't watch Qvc Tv the way I did in the past.  I remember when I would watch for hours and hours a day.  I do like Gem Day, I hop in and out for a few minutes throughout the day.  I can't say I actually buy anything.  I just think Qvc prices are still a little steep, I can get better values and better styles on other shopping channels.  Qvc is not my "go to" for jewelry but it is for almost everything else.   I ended up fiddling and diddling over the TSV ring; I couldn't decide between the turq or the opal.  So, I searched Jtv to see what they had and they are having a Southwest jewelry shows....and.....I got hooked and never returned to Qvc.  I'm a turquoise jewelry collector but I haven't bought anything new in 2 years.  So, I spent part of my tax refund on a gorgeous muti colored turq braclet and long liquid silver chain.  Funny thing is that if Qvc had not had their Gem Day, I wouldn't have even thought of buying jewelry today.

I love gem days - they're my favorite!  There aren't enough of them across the shopping channels for me.  Many of the Q items were out of my price range, but I still enjoyed checking in yesterday to see what they had.  I've read complaints from ladies who want 14k gold items, and they certainly had alot of those.  I think the prices were quite reasonable; I just wish I could've afforded a piece or two!

at age 61, I rarely wear any jewelry so it does not interest me.  Back 20 years ago I loved jewelry shows. I guess it  just depends on each person.

I love gem day, the pieces are interesting, the prices are very high. Silver bracelet in 400 dollars range after taxes. Sigh....

I didn't watch all day until late I caught the Turquoise show on the Plus channel and ended up buying the One Time Only Ethiopian Opal ring set. The turquoise set was just as pretty, too, but I only own one opal so I am glad I finally turned it on.

Love love love it! Wish they had them more often but probably better for my budget that they do not.

 

I wear a pretty ring or 2 everyday. A pretty gemstone on my hand brightens my mood.

I loved gem day for a few reasons:

 

1.  I'm relatively newly retired and enjoyed being able to binge watch.

 

2.  We were snowed in anyway so it was nice to have something I love to watch.

 

3.  The easy pay was tempting.  I bought 2 sterling rings that were $89 and $68.  Pretty stones and affordable sterling.   The only real splurge was the Santa Maria pendant.  I know it's small but if the color is as pretty when I get it home as what I saw on the demo, I'll be keeping it.  I already have a larger aqua pendant so if I have to return this one, it won't be a big deal.
