Nice things, seagal, lighter than before but similarly priced. It's about 80% back. And way better than local stores as far as the pricing.

The clearance jewelry has a bit extra off today, or the earrings I bought this morning did--

I've been posting here for 15 years and there has always been a lot of bickering. It used to be interrupted more often by shopping than it is these days.

Here it is today, the mother lode, the Klondike Gold Rush, and no one has posted a thing about it that I've seen.

I've bought two gifts and am perfectly happy.

I used to look forward to the gold rush and silver strike days. Now, I look at the jewelry and then look at what I own, and I cannot do it. I was cleaning around my house and found a receipt for a 29 gram 18K bracelet from Value Vision for under 550.00 - this has to be 12 years ago. sigh. I still have that bracelet and love it.

What did you get, Burnsite?

This place always bickered. Come on folks, it did.

I go back to 2000/2001 and never was it all sweetness and light here.

I am going to go peek Burnsite, I would love a new piece of turquoise! Its a good day here to do that if I find something.

I am glad to hear the gold is coming back around. That is good news for the economy. Enjoy your new pieces.

I get a complex that this place was so much better before I began to post. Cowinkydink or not?

tans, nothing has really changed in the 9 yrs (7/2005) I have been here. I think they are going back further than that.

I found this place when Natalee Holloway went missing, I googled her name and this board came up

seagal, Much less of the plating and finessing. The items are lightweight but real gold, 80% at least. Gold is back.

Beautiful gold and turquoise pieces. My weaknesses are jade, turquoise and pearls, and the turquoise is sleeping beauty. I love the opaque stones.

I have a lot of pieces from when prices were comparatively inexpensive but did get the line bracelet with turquoise as well today.

I think turquoise looks best when set in gold. And one simply doesn't see that--ever--in my local jewelry stores.

Hi, Burnsite! I'm a huge fan of turquoise in yellow gold. It definitely is hard to find, perhaps simply because of the fact it's traditionally seen in white metals in this country. I have a few pieces from the Q from the 1990s when I started watching them, and I've found several when visiting Spoleto USA in Charleston, S.C. (not sure why they seemed to offer it there).

I'm glad gold is back. I'm fortunate to have more jewelry than I really "need," but it's great to see the solid pieces beginning to surface on QVC again.

I don't have it in hand, in my safe deposit box, but my most valuable turquoise piece is done with gold, 14K, by LeVian . . . and the turquoise is the Robin's Egg. My other pieces are just Lucky or Fossil and others.
