Chuck Clemency Leaving ShopHQ for ShopLC

Admittedly, I don't watch ShopHQ much at all, but I did see his jewelry shows from time to time. This is his FB post.

Wow, he's been there a long time. I guess Michael is the last remaining amigo. I'm not even sure I even get that channel. Good luck to him.

Wonder why he's doing this. Shop LC, know nothing about this channel, do not watch it. Wonder just how much of his stuff he'll sell on this channel. He's probably gathering up all his stuff he has left over from HQ. His jewelry looks great on tv but you get it and it's all tiny and not well made. Anything I've ordered - and that isn't much of anything - I've returned b/c of both of my reasons noted.

We dont even get that channel on Comcast here in MD. . Chuck and his family are family on SHQ, this is sad news. He has been there almost 30 years.

It's a low brow network. Mostly jewelry (like JTV, tons of sterling silver) They would offer silver jewelry under $10.00. You name it, it's set in sterling silver. We don't get if 24 hours a day. We only get it during the day. They might be trying upgrade their jewelry.

I use to watch Shophq a lot. They had a lot of variety. However lately it seems the dubrows,(Heather Dubrow even has a clothing line)
and Invicta and selling masks and shields have taken over. I don't watch much now, I usually check out HSN and I watch JTV a lot. I have seen people post positive things about Shoplc, however it is hard for me to watch the hosts. Mybe their format will change. The jewelry on shoplc is lovely.

Wow. Color me shocked. I saw this come across FB but never even read it. I thought it was an ad for an upcoming ShopHQ visit.

I think ShopHQ is heading to closure so maybe he wanted off a sinking ship. But then hasn't his son been selling jewelry on ShopLC?

I don't get ShopLC anymore on Spectrum Streaming. I can get it via YouTube just like Q2 but I never bother. I never bothered with the channel when it was included in my cable package. The hosts are super annoying and there were too many "smackdown" events.

@Shelbelle I have Comcast Philadelphia and get Shop LC on channels 794/1044 for about 4 hours on "most" days starting at 2 or 3pm. I say most days as there are times when Shop LC is not on at all. I honestly cannot sit and watch this mess. For me, it is pretty unbearable. Reminds me of the old old old Home Shopping network.

I would not call silver jewelry low brow. JTV has wonderful silver pieces and they always tell you how many grams in each piece. if you can purchase a nice piece of jewelry at a decent price why is that low brow. Pieces do not have to be over priced to be good. For example I purchased one of Tova's rings on JTV for under $30.00 it is good quality. Because it was priced at a reasonable price does this make it low brow? I think it makes it a good deal, on Q it was priced at over $100.00 I like silver, thank goodness becauase gold is ridiculous.

ABOUT SHOP LC

Shop LC is a member of Vaibhav Global, Ltd (VGL), a vertically integrated retailer of jewelry and lifestyle products. VGL manufactures many of the products found at Shop LC, and also operates in a traditional business-to-business model. A sister station, The Jewellry Channel, is based out of London, UK and offers the same amazing products to its customers across the United Kingdom.

It is entirely possible that ShopLC already manufactures his jewelry.

The company that manufactures SLC jewelry is STS. The pieces are stamped D'Joy. Most is made in India. Chuck designs some of it. So you do see some of Chuck's SHOPHQ pieces on SLC sometimes.

They have their customer and its not that anyone is "low brow" .they use the falling auction format, not for everyone. my .o2 take a look at their Community forum you'll see they need to plug a lot of holes in their CS and products.

i do enjoy watching Blake Clemency, he is their best host or at least most easy on the eyes and ears!

Delivering Joy is ther slogan hence D'Joy.

I've seen The Jewelry Channel. Intersting pieces. They have quite a few jewelry channels in the UK. One of them was called Gemporium. Some failed, some are still on. I saw a lot of 9K gold. UK does not have 14K. They either have 9K or 18K. Noting else.

I dont think it is a part of our Comcast lineup here in MD, but I will recheck. We do get Gems TV on Ch 216. Nice to meet you, my son lives and works in downtown Philly!!

LC DOES make Chuck's jewelry. I have a bunch from Chuck and LC both, the stamp inside is the same, STS. His son Blake has worked there for a couple years now. Chuck talked about going to a new company for manufacturing a few years back, they were the one. I can see the handwriting on the wall for Shop HQ, their emphasis is on categories I won't even watch, The Dubrow Huckster shows for one.

Re: Chuck Clemency Leaving ShopHQ for ShopLC

I believe Gemporia or Rocks TV was the US based English arm of this company. Craig Rooke from the current Shop LC used to be there.

@sunshine 919 and @songbird

Beautifully said.

JTV has Gold - from 10k to 14k to 18k and also gold over sterling if you cannot afford the pure stuff.

Their sterling is rodium plated and the pricing on the gemstones they offer is amazing.

They have a tremendous array of stones not even seen on the Q, much less offered in gold.

They educate you as they sell the items to you, they disclose the stones that are enhanced and have artisan lines in silver that are truly ART.

BTW Chuck's things are beautiful, well crafted and he stands behind them, he too is the real deal. (A Jersey guy-what's not to love! *wink* )

I agree 100% with you Yellow919, and if you have not watched JTV in a long time Songbird - tune in for the laughs alone, Robert and Scott are informative but GOOFY as all get out.

I came across the channel and saw Chuck’s son Blake so I thought there might be some connection. The channel has really low prices, but looks like it is produced in someone’s home. The hosts are ones I seem to recall from non defunct shopping channels. Good luck to Chuck and I think ShopHQ will turn into the Invicta Channel.

That is surprising. Is Shop LC where Karen Connelly is a host? She and Chuck were always good together.

Karen Connelly is listed as a host on ShopLC, I have never seen her though. I don’t watch this channel a lot but have never seen her.

I do watch it a lot and Karen is definitely on, although I don't seem to hit her hours that much. I watch mainly in the day and the one I notice the most is Cheryl. She is the new Dan Dennis, a bit loud and whacky. She started out very quiet, at first I thought she was that blonde who was on Moonlighting with Bruce Willis, Cybil Shepherd. sp?
