EXPENSIVE LIST OF PROGRAMMING

Shanus — Fri, 30 Mar 2018 12:27:03 GMT

Last night was not a good lineup of shows. We’ve all asked for “less expensive” offerings.

There were expensive wigs, Stephen Dwek (over the top priced jewelry) and Vince’s clothing....way too high prices for a top or top.

Why put these shows all in a row so no one can purchase?

I watched a bit of the jewelry - no idea how many of anything they brought in, but the pieces I saw were beautiful and seemed to be selling.

I didn't mind the prices, but I'm irrelevant. I am sticking to my resolve to wear the jewelry I have already and the show reminded me to look for the Dwecks rings I have from a few years ago - haven't worn them for ages. Shame on me!

Didn't watc any of the Vince show, so I can't comment on that, but I did watch the TSV for a few minutes. I thought the TSV top looked much better on almost everyone than it did in the pictures for the pre-sale. Great colors. I wasn't surprised to hear Amy broadcast the sales of it.

@Shanus, very well stated.

Really unsure where the Q is going these days.

The expensive brands, the shoes are just so over the top.

This again will fall on deaf ears in my opinion.

But I am sure that there are many who purchase the 545.00 necklaces, the 180.00 shoes, and on and on. I find myself watching less and less. SO MUCH FOR THE V IN QVC...NOT MUCH VALUE THESE DAYS.

I don’t mind that QVC has products to appeal to a variety of incomes.

What I may find expensive, others might not.

I love looking at the jewelry but this particular designer makes items that look like every other Sterling designer that's out there ever since Sterling became Big.... I have enough Ripka pieces, disappointed in the Hawkins line and my favorite that I've not tired of at all and made supremely well.... Jai. So I'll watch and enjoy but not invest.....

I noticed there is more easy pay to help us purchase the stuff we can’t afford.

@Skididdy Someone did research (don’t know which forum) that Q’s targeting women 35-70 w/ income $50,000 to $250,000. Who are they kidding? That includes most of us, but we “ain’t” buying!

@deeva Any way you look at it, a lot of the offerings are expensive. Some purchasers can afford it...different story.

Watching Lisa Rinna now while folding laundry....$73.50 for 1 flowing top?!?!? Easy pay or not, it’s still $73.50!

.....and what’s with the front of her tops shorter while the backs hang down to the knees. They look like knit tops that stretched out from tucking them underneath your behind to sit. When that happens to my knits, they get donated.

........”but Harry will never have to work again”.

Joan Rivers used to be 100% more stylish and not only big shirts...also reasonable prices even for her great boucle jackets. Not now.

Isaac’s prices along w/ Halston have gone out of site.....and don’t even ask about Logo.

Funny to me, but none of these items are done in expensive fabrics like all cotton, linen, silk. They’re poly, rayon, etc.

Good point @deeva. And we have no idea exactly who is buying, despite claims otherwise.

O/T - can't make everyone happy. When Barefoot Dreams was brought here a few years ago, I read a LOT of posts that this is what some wanted to see - a better quality product. So they bring in some better quality brands, and they get complaints.
