I like Shawn..But I really wish she would know the truth before she says something..She' doing a Dooney show and QVC is putting spme bags on Clearance..and she proceeds to say that there are no other Retailers that do this...and she looks straight at Sue Clifton when she is saying this and Sue said NOTHING..Because Sue knows like I know that DOONEY on their Website does it and I know Macy's is always putting Dooney's on sale and I'm sure there are others...So,Shawn please stop saying stuff like that!

Are you sure she's not talking about Easy Pay?

EVERY STORE THAT SELLS DOONEY PUTS THEM ON CLEARANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In addition, there are several Dooney outlets and websites that sell clearance. Shawn sounds like a fool every time she says none do!

Not surprising, she makes up her own vocabulary. Annoying.

My guess is that she is just speaking to fill up space, and that she is not really cognizant of what she is actually saying.

Of course Dooneys go on sale. I see them on sale in Canada too.

I bet this topic gets poofed soon. Too critical of Shawn.

Another poster that does not listen carefully then rushes to post accusations.

OH Puhleeeze! OVC has it's fair share of hosts, as any business does, who need some fine tuning! Poof away. Not every host is acceptable, not every product is perfection. All of the hosts should be cognizant of what they are saying all the time, it's their job. They are in the public eye, by choice I might add, and should behave accordingly. Bags go on sale all the time. Shawn was wrong to make that statement.

I guess all the hosts misspeak sometimes. It's bound to happen when you are speaking before a crowd or in this case in front of cameras. It's just that Shawn does it so often and makes no apologies for it. It makes me, as a viewer, feel that she disrespects us and doesn't take the job she should be doing seriously. Her primary function should be to give us accurate information about a product so we can make an informed decision. In my opinion, she needs to do her homework, take her job more seriously, and be more professional and truthful in her presentations! Until then, I turn her off.

ITA. But, monitoring has been so strict lately we cannot say one negative thing. Threads have been poofed for lesser offensives.

This post has been removed by QVC because of unkind remarks about the show host.

OP is correct. That is exactly what she said. It had nothing to do with easy pay. It was a gross misstatement. Beyond that after an hour I had to turn the show off. Shawn and Sue are not a good combination in my book. Too much babbling. And Shawn really needs to lighten up on the status, horsey etc references to the bags. I tell you I liked the last show with Jane alone so much better. I know some didn't like the bag throwing but I felt like she covered the bags so much better without trying to sell us on the supposed pretension of the brand.

Re: Shawn

appleseed — Sun, 12 Jul 2015 01:13:09 GMT

Yep, I saw Jane and the bag throwing and thought that was funny, in a good way!

Today when Shawn made the statement about no other retailers putting Dooneys on sale, the look on Sue's face was priceless!

Re: Shawn

appleseed — Sun, 12 Jul 2015 01:15:32 GMT

Did anyone else hear Shawn reference Carolyn Gracie's medical condition as a sales tactic for the pink bag? Sorry but that struck me as a no-no..

Re: Shawn

Shawnie — Sun, 12 Jul 2015 01:28:20 GMT

Yes, I saw her reference to Carolyn's blog and using that as a sales tactic. Bad form is all I gotta say about that.

Yea, right, just like QVC is the only place on the face of the earth where that kiss lock coin purse can be purchased...

I used to like her. I grew weary of her very, very quickly.

And I also agree that her tendency to use sad stories as a regular part of her sales pitch is just so very unfortunate. I've seen Jill do it too and it's no less unfortunate.

I have to agree stevieb. It's a shame, I've always liked Shawn but feel the same way.
