Temptations

I still can't get an answer from Tara of temptations about the polka dot creations. It was only around a few times and apparently retired. I am not alone in liking that pattern and have written letters and posted to her but nothing. She has a lot of designs that are of interest to a small few, why not bring back the polka dots.

@brcala Don't expect a reply. I've never had one from her despite sending my questions through every contact means available.

@brcala I'm sorry I can't help you with contacting Tara, however, your post states "She has a lot of designs that are of interest to a small few," I believe that would be your answer. If there is only a small few out there that purchase a specific design, I wouldn't imagine they would continue with that pattern. Maybe try Ebay?

@PA Mom-mom I bet she doesn't have a problem endorsing the checks she gets from QVC. Not a Tara fan.

@brcala As @cjm61 suggested, eBay is an option. I have bought some items of my pattern there. The big drawback is usually the shipping costs. Check the listings carefully.

@brcala I am drinking my coffee from a yellow polka dot cup right now. Loved the pattern. I have the plates to match. They are especially nice with the raised edge.
I would like to see this pattern come back too since my daughter has "borrowed" half of my supply. 🙂

I'm sorry she doesn't respond. That's bad business. Did you try to reach her sidekick, Lisa Gleason?

Maybe she doesn't like polka dots. Maybe that pattern was not a big seller so it is not profitable to bring it back.

Why don't I see cranberry as a choice in new temptations products? I would like to see cranberry items brought back to the products.

@brcala

try E-bay.

800+ listings today (4-2) for polka dot Temptations, a lot of it brand new...

As someone else here mentioned,check the shipping charges carefully.....you will see why the 5.50 QVC charges to ship is a BARGAIN!!!!!

You do NOT have to "be a member" of E-bay, and they have thier own "easy pay" like plan or buy it now...you do NOT have to bid on an item. You can buy just like on Amazon....speaking of which, they have a few of her items in that pattern listed too!!

@brcala I would not waste my time with Missy Tara. Some years ago i bought some pieces in a particular pattern t hat I really liked and she said on air with David if they sold out she would definitely be bringing more in as people were really liking it. This was several years before covid. I know things can and do change. I understand. I emailed Tara and simply asked would the pattern be offered again as it had been sold out for some time. I was somewhat surprised when the response i got from her was not very friendly, almost as if she was annoyed by me asking. Led me to believe that what you see on air with David as far as Tara is concerned is a fake persona.
