JEWELRY DAY DISAPPOINTING

HoliBerry — Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:51:10 GMT

Just wanted to post that Vincenza Style Jewelry Shows today are so disappointing.

I've been flipping back & forth to QVC today & they are showing the same thngs over & over & over again. These shows just aren't like they used to be. Just wanted to say !! Does anyone agree?

I was just thinking there are some cool items in these shows. Up to date and modern.

Nothing I'd wear from what I've seen so far. Turned off.

I'm not fond of anything Bronzo so it's not hard to say no.

I don't want to own anything filled with resin or silicone with a candy coated shell (I mean a 14k or 18k shell).

Most of the 14k Gold and Silver are just too expensive.

Sooooo.... I'm enjoying watching but have not been tempted to buy anything at all.

I agree. There is not one thing that is tempting me to buy. It's not like it used to be when the prices of gold and silver were much lower.

I finally bought the two tone Bronzo watch, but I agree it's the same product over and over again.

The watch was the ONLY thing that caught my serious interest. It's really beautiful..... but I have a great watch and I rarely switch....

I was really hoping to find some more positive comments about the Vicenza Jewelry Day yesterday. I thought there was a great variety of items AND prices. It's been a long time since I've actually watched the Q and, while I missed seeing Lisa in Italy, I think the Q did a great job presenting. I know a lot of people are anti-Bronzo, but I have to say that I own many pieces and every one of them looks as good as the day I bought them.

If the truth be known, maybe it was just the fact that it was all-day jewelry that I enjoyed the most! Those days seem few and far between among all of the shopping channels anymore...

I actually saw many items I loved! Only plan to get a couple though. The pave trimmed hoops in black and bangle to match to wear for a wedding reception. Plus a rose gold earring to go with a blush outfit for a spring wedding chowder.

The show is not the same without Lisa. I found it very boring and turned it off. The highlight of the show was Italy and it lost it's special feeling. Lisa made the pieces stand out. Not so much with Rick (can't understand why they have him hosting jewelry).

I have nothing against jewelry plated or filled but I was looking for silver and all gold items especially when it is an Italian jewelry day...there was nothing in gold other than one pair of earrings for $800 and a bracelet for over $2000. Maybe some old inventory was presented but I was only interested in new gold...so for me the day had no interest. I am surprised QVC on an Italian jewelry day offered nothing for people looking for the gold pieces but they must have decided we are of little importance in the big scheme of on air retail...okay, back to the tried and true B&M stores for "fine" jewelry with time tested value and pieces not stamped made in China.

Agree, show was disappointing. Also think Lisa's presence used to flow over the entire show and her absence contributed largely to my disappointment. The shows to me were lackluster. Lisa had that special something that QVC has not replaced for me.

Bought a pair of earings (advanced sale), and a necklace. I agree, though, the show was a little disappointing, no matter which host was presenting. Even QVC's diamonique shows haven't been the same in a long time. I tuned out after awhile.

I had planned on watching a few of the shows. However, it became readily apparent that most shows were just repeats of the previous one. Very disappointing. And as I've said on a couple of other threads this morning, I'm just not interested in having to wait 3 months for an item I've ordered. No thank you, QVC.

Very disappointing day. Without Lisa ...... Very oridinary jewelry . I can find much better in almost any store or department store. Really appears QVC is on. Downward spiral. Hope they can figure this out and re-structure before to much sales are lost. You would think the powers to be could figure this thing out by sales and customers comments.

I own some Bronzo pieces that are lovely. As I stated yesterday, I think some of those pieces were quite modern and beautiful.

I really don't understand why some people "HATE" the Bronzo jewelry.. I have a few pieces of it and I always get compliments when I wear it..I am not a RICH person and the PRICES OF GOLD up until recently are out of sight,,We can't go back to the days when gold was affordable..so..If you love jewelry like me and like some of the new styles..I can have them at an affordable price and look like I have all this expensive jewelry...Oh yesterday I ordered a two tone Cuff and 3 pairs of Ear Climbers....All are advance orders..

I'm not interested in buying real gold since the price is still too high compared to what it once was. I buy more silver now. Won't buy gold plated resin stuff.

I'm more interested in gemstones than plain gold at this point anyway. Right now I'm saving for a certain gemstone that I really want. When I've got the amount saved, I'll go to NYC to jewelers row, pick a stone and then have it set. I've never done it that way before so I'm excited.

No surprise here. I didn't watch one minute of it.

Just had two rings made with a couple stones from my grandparents who are long gone. It is the absolute best thing I ever did. I even used all my scrap and broken gold to help make the jewelry. It is something I will treasure the rest of my life and my mother is thrilled to see her parents gemstones being used.
