Is this a joke???

PhillyGirl23 — Tue, 06 Sep 2022 03:46:33 GMT

A hoodie for $66? (with tax/shipping) This looks NO DIFFERENT than a Hanes sweatshirt.

Candace is laughing all the way to the bank!!! INSANITY

It looks sloppy! Not flattering.

I agree! Even the SG tops are at almost 60 dollars now. Perhaps we are paying the price of 2 or 3 hosts on a show. Q is spending too much to sell product. I think it was fine before all this . I don't know where this is going.

@Mustang Shar

Its going to other retailers at least for me. I would spend that for a quality garment but not for this.

The visual may look like cheaper ones but I'd be willing to bet that the material is much softer than the gym type Hanes hoodies are! It depends on what you are wearing it for. I like the Hanes for maybe walking the dog, working in the yard or wearing under a jacket in the winter to shovel snow.

I see nothing wrong with going to the bank.

And laughing all the way.

Good for all of them and continued success and financial fortune!

I agree! Most of the fashion prices on the Q are, in my opinion, over priced. Apparently, there are some that don't feel the same and that's fine. It just won't be me sending the vendor laughing all the way to the bank.

Kohl's Tech Gear has great sweatshirts. Good quality for a fair price.

I agree that Kohl's Tek Gear is top notch for hoodies and all sports wear! Highest price I ever paid is $14.99.

@sann I bought 2 very basic tops at Kohl's for a total under $20 with tax. I hope they last longer than I expect them to because if they don't, even at that price, they are overpriced.

I was also considering tanks, not one style I tried on was body appropriate in any size.

I had never walked into that store before so I'm happy to report they had probably 5 times as many sales people as the Macy's near me and every one of them I stopped for information was cheerful and helpful. And the place was spotless!

@sann Didn't mean to sidetrack your thread, so I guess I should tell you that my alltime favorite hoodie is about 6 years old and if it were still available today, I'd buy it again although it was well over $100 when I splurged on it. It's not worn out- just huge on me now.

I don't always splurge - my oldest hoodie cost less than $10, has been worn and washed repeatedly and still looks just fine.

@rockygems123 I bought an SG Essentials top a few weeks ago at a total cost just over $40. It's something I expected to wear "forever" when I ordered it - and now that I have it, I know I should be able to.

I just paid half that for 2 Kohl's tops which I can wear only as layering pieces. I do not expect them to last as long, but Graver had no tanks in my size in the colors I needed for the shirts I want to layer - and I'm assuming some day southern Florida will cool enough for me to wear a long-sleeved cotton shirt over the very lightweight poly.

I don’t think this looks anything like a Hanes hoodie. You use a lot of words to say “I can’t afford it”.

Can someone explain to my what the point here is? Is it that you wouldn't buy it? Are you implying people are stupid if they buy it and you aren't? I don't get it because the world is full of stuff that is more expensive than I would pay for it, or that I would never spend a penny on (like a cruise).

But it's not something I think about or would post about. I don't see the point here, ok, so it's expensive. The world is full of expensive stuff.

The poster mocks every single clothing line at QVC in the same way: the prices are ridiculous, they don't like the designs and the designer laughs all the way to the bank.

Same commentary.

Every.

Not all hoodies have front zipper openings. Then it would be a jacket!!

Relax!

She can say whatever her heart desires.

And I may take appropriate note and make my observations.

Post Away and Beware the Responses.

That's how it works.

Her behavior is TROLLISH. Baiting. Insulting. Unkind. Violates the Community Standards. Rude, hit and run behavior.

There's more to this situation and it needs to be addressed instead of allowing it to fester.

It's NOT okay @Luvsmyfam
