Lisa Robertson & David Markstein

DeeDee14 — Mon, 16 Oct 2017 18:19:25 GMT

Today I rec'd an email from Lisa R. and in the email is a small video of her with David Markstein, the Italian gold buyer for QVC. I was wondering why he wasn't on the gold shows lately with the hosts. I guess this is the reason. Lisa said he is a member of her team. She must be doing very well with her online business if she can lure a 20 year employee to her team. Anyone else see this video?

He is a director with Jewel Source in NY. Maybe LR bought some pieces from Jewel Source. I won’t shop with her again after an item was stuck in her warehouse and they couldn’t call the people who worked there. What? LR told me on her FB page that she didn’t own the warehouse. They could only email. It took 3 Days to find out where my order was.

I don't think he works for her. Sounds like more of a consulting job for him. I'd be shocked if she paid him

She is sure not the person I would trust to order anything from!

Last week, some of the tribe were crying the blues because they missed out on a cadelabra thingy she was selling. It sold out, for the 2nd time I think. Someone posted to the broken hearted not to worry, they could find the exact same thing on...I want to say Joss & Main or something like that. So I went and did a search. Sure enough there it was, and about 12 bucks cheaper. That person's post was deleted of course, which actually I could understand.

The jewelry not as much, but the rest of what she sells can often be found from online wholesalers and home furnishings websites, or very similar items. Not as unique as she hopes people will believe.

It used to be more common, both on her FB page and the Tribe FB page, for people to post where they found Lisa’s items or similar for less $$ - and these were instances where Lisa was sold out, so it wouldn’t have hurt her sales. Now, it’s all routinely deleted, “in case” she might get more and it might, at some future maybe time, possibly hurt her sales.

I don't care what Lisa is doing now and I don't buy from her. I just thought it was interesting that she could get someone, David Markstein, who has been with the Q so long to work with her. I haven't seen him on air for awhile.

It is NOT her warehouse. It's a fulfillment center. Look up what that is.

They do business with several companies, including QVC.

As for Markstein, you think he quit? Yeah, OK.

Truth has no place in her life or on her social media. She can't handle it.

I wonder if Lisa pays people on her staff to post and to keep her name relevant here at the Q?

I was just wondering if anyone knew if he left QVC. He usually does the gold shows with the hosts and I haven't seen him for awhile. Can I please just ask a question? No need to be smart about it.

WOW, seems you really have strong feelings against Lisa. May I ask what she ever did to you that makes you feel this way? It sounds personal to me.

I wouldn't have been happy about that. She's posted plenty of pictures of herself inside the warehouse unpacking boxes and going through inventory.

Lisa mentioned in her chat that her and at least David are getting ready to leave for Italy again this weekend. The poster that said David might be a consultant - while I agree w/your thought process - I don't think he is. Lisa said in 1 of her chats that he's part of the group now and only has a 5 minute commute from his house. That doesn't sound like a consultant- it sounds like an employee. Unfortunately. David sounds like he has not lasted anywhere long since he exited the Q. Maybe they'll become partners. Lisa mentioned in the same chat that Nancy ( COS) has a 2 minute commute from the upstairs bedroom. So it sounds like she lives there p/t along w/ Katie... interesting little mini company that's been put together..

Sorry, Bibbee, but once a while this kind of post really gets me. Not all of what is in this thread is "gossip". This thread is like thousands and thousands of others-past and present: posters sharing their opinions, thoughts and experiences. I don't understand the point of scolding others for utilizing the boards in an acceptable manner.

“All gossip” in your opinion, because you don’t appreciate what’s being said and don’t want any of it to be true.

Don’t you have something “better” to do than chastise other posters who post things that you don’t happen to like or agree with?

Sheilaray, Thank you. I didn't mean to start all of this chaos with a simple question. I just was wondering if David M. Left the Q. I realize a lot of people don't like Lisa, but I enjoyed watching her and her style. When people that don't like her see a post with her name they should just pass on by. No need for the insults and mean remarks. We have a lot worse problems to worry about. I appreciate your input.
