Quacker Factory Observation

Goodie2shoes — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 23:13:36 GMT

is it just me or does it appear that QF is not on much anymore, mainly during the Christmas Season selling the Holiday themed tops. I watched part of the QF show with Angel and Leah, didn't see anything I would buy. Anyone make a purchase or 2?

Have never purchased a QF item & been here before they arrived. (Brice)

Oh my ! Yes QF has been on QVC for years ! I have several pairs of jeans and a couple of the holiday tops. I remember Jean Bice the owner of QF when she was the sales person before she died. Angel often mentions JB when she is presenting fashions. Many on this forum remember Jean Bice.

Most QF shows are on QVC2.

I just wore my lovely new QF orange spiderweb top this past weekend. I also bought my SIL the QF pumpkin face top. Some items seem to sell out quickly, and yes, they do not seem to be on the air as often, but I shop online all the time.

I have been shopping and wearing QF for years and years--they are just a great casual wear brand. I have many sweet QF holiday sweaters, lovely, intricate flower tops, fun Summer dresses, and some comfortable pants.

You may have to have the type of personality that likes sparkle and shine--like ME! Too bad they do not make long, formal gowns that I could wear on a cruise (smile.)

I've purchased many pairs of dream jeans years ago but they just haven't kept up with newer styles and it seems like there is less to choose from. I have the feeling that QF is on its way out at the Q.

I thought the tops were cute, but I don't buy holiday theme sweaters. The time that I can wear is too limited and would rather purchase something I can wear all winter.

QF has 3 shows coming up in the next week on QVC (one of which was today).

4 shows on QVC2.

Also, some on QVC3, but I never watch that so no idea whether they're repeats of the other channels.

I have no idea why this topic seems to keep coming up - that they're not on much anymore or that they're on their way out. Almost as if they're wishing them away.

I get emails all the time announcing the upcoming shows.

And just today I was wearing one of my favorite QF items: the soft corduroy pants. Look great and so comfortable!

I don't trust Angel. She had a perfect opportunity to wear a QF subtle top to J Coffee engagement party. Instead she wore the plainest black outfit. If she doesn't want to wear QF why should we?

Oh good heavens. Does every host and vendor on QVC (or with any other retailer) have to wear the brand(s) she represents to every single event?

It was a private event. How ridiculous to expect someone to only ever buy and wear a certain brand of clothing. Just because Jen Coffey chose to share photos of the event, doesn't make it public.

What if someone happens to snap a photo of her on the street? In a grocery store? At the doctor's office? And heavens!!! She's not wearing Quacker Factory!!!

So untrustworthy.

(Talk about taking things to ridiculous extremes.)

@Nancy Drew. I thought I'd heard everything, then you came up with this? Seriously, you don't trust Angel because she wore an outfit of her choice to a party? Unreal.

It's not like she robbed a bank and didn't wear QF.

Hi. I have noticed that Quacker Factory isn't what it used to be. I have been shopping on QVC for many years and after Jeanne Bice (founder and owner of Quacker Factory) died and Angel and others took over, it just isn't the same. I remember one Christmas, Jeanne Bice made a 2 pc set that was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. It was very soft and it had the most beautiful angels on it. I bought that set in blue and wore it that Christmas. I got the most compliments whenever or wherever I wore it. It washed beautifully!!! I believe the angels were sewn on....not just an iron on patch. I hope that Angel will bring that set back. The quality of Quacker Factory just isn't the same now...sadly. Also, Quacker Factory was on in the prime time slot. Now, it is on at times like 1:00AM or weird times during the day. I am wondering how much longer they will be at the Q.

@Katydid62 - I have a lot of QF and I have never received anything with an iron-on patch.

I also haven't noticed any decline in the quality. When was the last time you bought anything, just out of curiosity? (I've purchased several things in the past month.)

-------

NB: Today's show was on from 6 to 7 PM.

The show on 11/06 is 3 to 5 PM.

Not weird hours like 1:00 AM. Those are most likely repeat showings.

@Kachina624 - Everyone should be required to only ever be seen in the brand s(he) represents. And if not adhering to this requirement, perhaps we should brand a scarlet letter somewhere visible to show that person is untrustworthy?

I think Kim Gravel took over and as we all know the more you sell the more TSVs you get and the more airtime you get. There are many brands that have been downgraded in lieu of newer ones. I feel like even Isaac is on less than he used to be.
