TOO MUCH DOONEY!!!

fortune — Sun, 28 Oct 2018 05:36:59 GMT

Today (10/27/18) we were exposed to hours and hours of presentation of the Dooney & Bourke TSV. Sometimes it was on both QVC and QVC2 at the same time. How in the world do hosts stand going over and over and over the same marketing spiel! I know I, as a viewer, was disgusted. Click!

@fortune. No, it's too much TSV. It doesn't matter whether it's a Dooney or a mop, they beat it to death.

I don't understand. Op thought the Dooney shows were overkill and "disgusting" but she ....watched all those digusting overkill shows? I saw 15 or 20 minutes of a TSV presentation and then all day long, I didn't see a second of any Dooney show. I wasn't interested in Dooney (as much as I did love the Tsv) so why the heck would I sit and watch hours and hours of various hosts selling handbags that I had no intensions of buying? It mystifies me that there are women who seem to think they are required to watch a shopping channel and they mad when they don't like what that shopping channel is selling. Also, how is that some people don't understand that QVC is retailer? It's not entertainment. The "shows" are sales pitches and the "hosts" are sales associates.

@chrystaltree The OP never said that she sat there for hours watching the Dooney shows. That is why she posted "CLICK" at the end.

You do realize that folks turn on the TV at all times of the day and do see the same shows over and over.

Your post was meant to make what point? It didn't apply to the OP.

That's your interpretation. My interpretation was that she watched because otherwise, she wouldn't have noticed or cared about all the Dooney shows. Most people can't be bothered or irked by something they don't see. My point was that complaining about the merchandise that a big multinational corporations sells to it's customers for holiday gift giving should be expected, it's what retailers do. I get it, half the fun of this board for many women is complaining about the things the choose to watch for hour and hours a day. Watch..complain...watch complain.

I didn't see yesterday, but like you, I don't understand selling the same product on multiple channels. My personal opinion is that Dooney is on way too often whether it's a TSV or not!

@fortune ..... the hosts are making tons of money so they don’t care how many times they have to present the same product .... I know it wouldn’t bother me 🙃

The way it appears to me, and maybe no one would agree, is that QVC has become telemarketing central for a limited number of brands. Philosophy, IT Cosmetics, Dooney & Bourke and a few others. And in between the telemarketing hours they sell some other stuff.

wagirl — Sun, 28 Oct 2018 16:16:03 GMT

It's ALL TSV's, everyday. Haven't been watching much anymore--what can you say about the TSV after the first 1 or 2 hours? All the words have been spoken already. yikes!!!!

@shaggygirl, I agree. The question crossed my mind yesterday, as I clicked on QVC and then clicked it off (several times I might add because there was Dooney again) do they own part of this company ? I have also thought the same with Philosophy and IT Cosmetics. Those three seem to be on ALL the time now. I remember when there used to be a variety of brands of hand bags on now it's all Dooney all the time ! They do have others on line but rearly have presentations of them. I for one am sick of all three of these lines !!

I enjoyed to Dooneys yesterday. I like Sue Clifton had QVC on for background noise for quite a while yesterday.

It’s an infomercial station. What do you expect? Don’t watch! I love my Dooneys, but

I don’t watch all those sales presentations. I have a life, and I get on with it. You can’t watch an infomercial channel and then complain when they try to sell you something. Makes no sense. It would be like saying, “Oh, I hate all this junk mail I got today”—and then reading it!

LOL, let's throw some Lock n Lock in there, too!! Every cooking show has it or it seems that way to me.

@fortune

The hosts are hypnotized!!!!!!

I can't think of the vendor's name who presents the Dooneys - but I get distracted by her long black hair (?????) So fake and outdated. She needs a makeover like the Lock 'n Lock gal.

@Kachina624

They should use the Dooneys to mop the floor. Then vacuum it up with a Dyson. Would make great TV.

@chrystaltree

We're hoping QVC presents items like they did in years past. It is very hard to watch now - with those Christmas trees in the background. People want to watch - QVC just makes it difficult to watch.

Re: TOO MUCH DOONEY!!!

QVC must be making a fortune with the constant airing of Dooney, philosphy, it, logo, graver etc. Products that don't sell don't get air time. So blame the buyers, sellers are going to present what makes them the most monery
