Did she???

Croemer, I think I read on the Jewelry forum that she had.

There were 2.361 results on Ebay for her jewelry. Some of the prices are very reasonable.

I have many of her QVC and couture pieces. I enjoy watching the shows, but her pricing is crazy now. I wait for clearance on QVC stuff, and trunk shows for the couture.

I think I read that with the sale, she is getting out of the couture.

Did anyone else read that?

I doubt it and I'm sure she doesn't care. She has her little chrony following who will buy anything.

I don't wear silver jewelry, but do try to keep up with what it is costing for those that do. The way I see it is.....those that sell silver jewelry are taking advantage of the price of gold, and are gouging the silver lovers for this. They figure if people will pay for gold pieces, as some do, then they will sell even more silver pieces.

As for gold, I will not buy any gold that is filled in with that silicone stuff. They have been cutting back on the gold weight and think people don't think that is being done. But, it really is. I had a jeweler tell me not to buy gold right now at all.......I have gone to this man for many years, and know he would not tell me this if it wasn't true. He said he is not encouraging any of his better customers to buy it.......and yes, he knows he is telling folks this and he's not selling it either. They have hurt the gold folks by doing that filling the way they have..... He said in the long run, his business will get better again down the road....and the customers that aren't buying now will be back to him because he is honest.

I had to stop buying her things. Barbara Bixby. Outrageous. Judith sold her company for $20 some million!!

Yes, very recently. I Don't remember all the details though.

Thank you. If I remember correctly some posters thought it might be why they are raising the prices. I am going to check and see if I can find the thread.

I will be checking there in the future. I have found myself buying more and more Victoria Wieck from HSN now.

Remember that heart ring? It was one of the first pieces she brought to QVC. It was $39 or something. Lol

I have asked this question before and none of the Ripkanistas have answered.

Where can you wear the big cuffs with all the Diamonique...or the large pear shaped earrings? I think they are capri's?

Where are those items appropriate? If I wore them to see a client, they would think I went nuts with all that fake stuff on my arm!!!

Waiting for the Ripkanista's to show up, followed by wen.
