I'm not surprised, I wouldn't have paid $5.00 for it.

OP, you're ridiculous. Do you ever stop?

LOL! I guess it's hard to believe that women purchase something others don't care for. Pointless to criticize what QVC sells since they have plenty of customers to make them successful.

I'm a LOGO girl, but I didn't care for this TSV so I didn't purchase.

However, I don't think it was a flop having sold something like 50,000 units.

ITA Faerie.

I don't think Logo is a house brand, but I don't know for sure. She sells a lot of tops-more than most "designers" on QVC except for SG.

Morning, Win. I think it would have greatly helped her presentations yesterday (well, all her presentations, really) if they showed the models wearing Lori's tops the way most of us wear them. A pair of jeans, a LOGO top with a print scarf or a cardigan, etc. It doesn't sell the merchandise to show all these models in five shirts topped with a vest, Lori's leggings, Lori's solid scarves used as belts, etc., because 99% of us who like her clothing don't wear it like she does.

I agree. I liked the vest on Lisa last night. Lisa was wearing skinny jeans with boots and a tank top with the LOGO vest over it. I would have bought the TSV yesterday, but we are saving for a trip, so I didn't want to spend the money. I might get it later.

OMG! Poor Lori! Now she'll have to sell her blood for food and apply for food stamps and live in a homeless shelter! Just, joking OP. Sell out or not; Lori and QVC made a bundle off that tsv. Her line is very popular and if the shows she does are an indication, her line is growing by leaps and bounds. But if it helps....I thought that vest was awful.....lol

50,000 is a magic number in QVC fashion TSVs. They usually don't buy much more than that. In this case what's leftover must be a couple thousand in broken sizes and not all colors as they did go into One-Time Onlys.

It seems as though they like to be able to do OTOs, since it gives them another opportunity to create excitement about a special deal on something. PMS was really the final opportunity to present it anyway, since it was followed by Isaac and Susan Graver. I don't think a sell-out is necessarily an indication of the success or failure of a TSV these days -- they happily keep selling what's left over anyway, even restocking some items (the How Smooth jeans come to mind). I would still contend that selling 50,000 of most fashion TSVs is a good day!

(BTW, I quoted your post simply because it mentioned OTOs -- I wasn't disagreeing with what it stated! )

Over 50,000 sold -- hardly a flop!

Exactly. Lori's line has been selling quite well -- hence the big availability and increased TV exposure. They were quoting numbers sold on several items yesterday -- all big numbers.

Good. Because if I like my grey vest as much as I anticipate, I might be back for another one.

I don't get how anyone can judge whether anything was a success or not based on all colors and sizes being available. How do you know there aren't 50 left in each size, all colors? We have no idea how many are actually left, nor does it matter.

I keep seeing more and more posts like these and I wonder how posters know if it was "successful" or not?

They have no way of knowing if it was successful or not. It's simply a matter of reinforcing their like or dislike for a particular TSV.

I could easily be wrong, I don't try to keep up with it, but I think most TSV's are not complete sell outs anymore.
