ShopLC makes most of their own jewelry so there is no middleman. I've bought many pieces from them. They were the first network on TV to sell lab diamonds so I bought a pair of studs at a super-low price. Also got a pair of lab bixbite studs for the lowest price I've seen. Their Swarovski jewelry, both crystal and zirconia, are very low priced and set in sterling which is not the case at a Swarovski store where theirs is set in base metals.

LC company started as a gemstone manufacturer and then to making jewelry with gems making them available to other jewelers including homeshopping networks. They didn't start selling on TV until years later.

Also, if you are interested in moissanite, Shoplc has far better pricing than JTV. Charles Winston is on JTV and still is trying to keep the prices up even though his family's patent on moissanite ran out years ago.

'LC' stands for Low Cost. Their hosts say that all the time.

So isn't qvc at times. A lab grown sterling silver pair of hoops 659.00 on sale? Sorry lab grown is NOT imo a from the earth diamond. Although probably better quality, that much money for a fake diamond and in sterling silver earring is ridiculous.

ShopLC has a channel finder on their website. Find the link at the bottom of the page under TOOLS.

Yes, I agree. Lab diamonds are too expensive for what they are. But they are not fake. They are real diamonds just not from the earth. Lab diamonds cost a lot to make. Their creation requires tremendous amounts of high energy used in 'ovens' plus the yield is only about 70% at best. Lots of the rough goes to waste spiking the price of the gemmy rough.

Well technically they are fake. The ground makes diamonds over thousands of years so to recreate in a laboratory is fake. I understand the chemical make up is the same, but can't you appreciate that mother nature made your gemstone not some guy in a lab?

I prefer not to tear up the earth to mine for gems when some of them can be made in the lab plus there's the human suffering which comes with mined gems, not to mention the legal issues placed upon exportation of gems controlled by corrupt countries.

Gold is so expensive, most of the shopping channels either offer 10K or do the usual 18K over silver all of which are lab grown diamonds. You usually don't see natural diamonds on silver except pave or tiny accents. Solitaire (natural diamonds) is only reserved on 18K or platinum. But lab grown doesn't have resell value of natural diamonds. So you can lab grown on just about any kind of metal. I don't know what will happen to gold, as it continues to go up. i had predicted it go up to $5,000.00 an ounce by 2027. Looks like it might beat that date....

No, it stands for 'Low Cost'. I've heard their hosts say that over and over again.

Their original name was The Jewelry Channel then it changed to Liquidation Channel but after that...ShopLC where the LC stands for 'Low Cost'.
