JUDITH RIPKA

I do not watch Judith, I feel her items are way over priced. I would not spend that much money on sterling silver. I just hate it when she is on.

Isn't it nice that there are a couple hundred other channels on our TVs to which we can switch when she is on? I don't care for her or her jewelry either.

I agree....it all looks the same after awhile.....and Rick is so over-the-top when he hosts with her.....and his laugh is very annoying....so I have to change the channel.....

I think her items are pricey as well.

I just saw a bracelet with cheap gemstones in SS for over a thousand dollar Store! Really, she has got to be kidding. Don't buy anything from her anymore. I do have a few pieces back when her prices were reasonable. Also, now everything looks the same, SS and diamonique. And the hosts falling all over her is sickening.

Perhaps this has changed, but it was my understanding that QVC sets the item prices. The vendor sells the item to QVC at a certain cost and does not participate in the final pricing, promotional deals (EasyPay, free shipping, etc.) or similar marketing plans. At one time, a vendor had to pay to be included on a special day (such as all-day beauty or cooking), but, again, I don't know if that is still in effect. I never bought a lot of Ripka to start with, but today I only look at items on clearance. The prices are too, too high for me.

I don't watch her either, but it's mainly that her jewelry is just not my taste. I prefer less ornate designs.

I can understand not liking JR's style of jewelry and/or the cost, but what people need to understand about it is the quality. I own many of pieces and every single one looks like it just came out of the package new, no matter how much I wear them. I wear one of her rings for a wedding band almost every day and it's never tarnished, discolored, faded, and the stones are all intact and sparkle. That goes for my clad JR pieces, too.

So, my point is, I believe it is of the highest quality costume jewelry that I've ever owned, and worth every penny I paid for it.

Way over priced, and all looks the same, you can spot it a mile away.

That's great you can spot Judith's jewelry a mile away. That way people will know you have good taste.

You could have just ended it at "changing the channel"?

To me it means that it all looks alike, so it is really not a compliment.

Usually on TSV day, the face behind the brand is on for all but the overnight hours. I wonder what was up with Judith that she was MIA for her ealy evening shows.

Although I don't buy much JR any more because of the cost, I still like to watch her shows. I wait for her stuff to go on clearance and love her rose gold clad, I wish her Diamonique line bracelets were not so pricey. I do own the Diamonique rolling line bracelet though in the sterling.

I really enjoy some of her items. I don't have a lot of them, and don't think for a minute they look "real" as they're always saying.... but I love some of it and own some of it....

That's what I love about life.... there's usually something somewhere for everyone....

I take what you say with a grain of salt Because you're constantly negative.
