Charm Bracelets

Wow those charm braclets on today are nice but way over priced in my opinion. QVC hasnt met any of my expectations this year on sale prices. QVC no one wants to spend that kind of money on darn bracelets especially at Xmas. I mean what they hey they arent gold they are sterling silver for goodness sakes. Those bracelets shouldnt have been priced for no more then $20's at that price $60's is a reasonable price. $124.80 grossly over priced. Heck the charm bracelets that were made with Honora pearls didnt cost this much. We love the charm bracelets QVC but we want them priced reasonable.

Compared to what they charge for Alex and Ani, I think they are reasonable. Pandora sells their bangles for $70.

I watched Shawn presenting these, and get so tired of her philosophical presentations. It is more fun to buy from someone like Antonella that just sells, and is happy about it.

@SuziQ2I caught Antonella at midnight -- and I thought she WAS philosophical.

I wasn't buying sterling silver anyway, and I know nothing about how these items "should" be priced, but no, Shawn is not alone in selling an idea as well as a bracelet.

Yhat seems to make sense to many, many people, so I don't blame either host for doing something wrong. It's just not a line of reasoning that sells me jewelry.

I'm fine with the price, the Alex and Ani ones cost the same and they aren't even sterling silver,

I too think they could have done better with the price. I bought one of those bracelets recently for $29.96 as a one time only, I believe. It was the same thing by Extraordinary Life. I got the anchor and I love it.

They should have kept these to just under $100 IMHO.

@thequeenbeeI always think that if the person doing the buying can't tell the difference or really doesn't care what the differences are between an item priced at $20 and one at $120, then the buyer should choose the $20 item - not expect the more expensive one to sell for the same price.

Whether today's TSV is actually priced right will "come out in the wash," as buyers make their decisions.

Does no one want to spend that kind of money on sterling silver? We'll know by the end of the day.

I always wanted the Roderick Tenorio Medicine Bear cuff but never got it, well last week I offered $50 on ebay and was accepted, cuff is 46 something grams. I should get it Monday and I can't wait. I got a great price.

Look! I just spent a few hours at DSW shoe warehouse looking for shoes with my granddaughters (12 and 13). My 13 year old wanted UGGS. I didn't mind buying them (I know they are over priced, but that's what she wanted). Her sister could care less.

Anyway, in the area where we live (near D.C.) it's all about the name. My granddaughter had on an Alex and Ani bracelet.

If I gave her one that wasn't Alex and Ani she'd be gracious, send me a thank you note and never wear it.

My girls wanted Jordache stuff (they're 42, 40 and 35 now). I used to tell them I wasn't letting them do free advertising for Jordache jeans or shirts with their name blasted all over. If they wanted it, they should get a job and buy it. Well, they eventually got a job and now one of them (this girl's mom) is having a fit about the price of UGGS. I think it's funny.

As for me, Grandmom. What the heck? I have the money and I don't mind paying for them. I think they are terrible for feet and are ugly but it's not my problem anymore! I get to be the fun grandma! Incidentally, the kid ended up getting ..... are you ready? She got a pair of high top sneekers just like the one's she had on!. Here's the funny part.....they are as white as snow! Yep! Around here evidentally kids wear white tennis shoes in the Winter!

Does anyone know where I can purchase some of those ugly rubber UGG labels so I can glue the label on a pair of QVC's Lamo boots? Ha!

@Susan-QVC Why thank you Susan-QVC. It was nice of you to respond. I have thought (on more than one occasion) I am like a pebble in QVC's shoes, (i.e. trouble maker, pain in the X#$).

You made me smile.

I don't know what you were looking at, but 92.5 sterling silver (not the paper thin variety) charm bracelets start at $450.00 at Belk and that isn't the fashion jewelry area!

These are sterling silver bracelets, not junk jewelry! I ordered the Holiday selection for myself, and got it today and they are so nice, I cannot wait to wear them! BTW, they are not real thin either!
