I read somewhere he sold his company and retired. But I am not sure if the source of this story is reliable, I think I may have read it here, somewhere on the QVC forums.

Lee seems like a nice man. QVC customer service usually knows NOTHING. Worse comes worse, call them.

Yes he did retire. I remember watching him say this on one of the last shows he did.

It was just a rumor that he retired. He didn't say hes retiring he said he was scaling down the business. He's supposed to have shows in October, this month.

Yes, I remember him saying that! He said the flight from Hawaii to PA is so long and as one gets older flying becomes less fun; as if.. Anyway, he's cutting back. No quitting!

You're right he talked about the traveling. I think he had to do one of the shows by phone because a flight got delayed. Can't imagine all those trips he's made over the years. I like him and his shows.

I thought he had retired/sold his stores. I've been buying many items on eBay. But I also thought I read somewhere or saw an interview where he said he would keep coming back to QVC as long as they wanted him.

Thanks everyone. I really like him. Such a gentleman.

I love his wallets but I think he has established his brand enough that a host could do the show, as I'm getting older the traveling can be a lot. Riding down to north Carolina which is 5 hours for me was a chore on the last trip...so I can just image how he feels.

Yes, I saw that as well and it made me very sad. I loved his artsy items, made from natural things.
