Okay, don't know about you ladies who watch every Thursday or at least check in periodically to see the items, I continue to wonder why SG items are SO STINKING COSTLY!!!!

 

Look at this current item - a long sleeve top made out of waffle knit - a thermal underwear kind of fabric. It has a simple V-neck with a piece of lace that costs almost nothing at any fabric store all the while they're charging a WHOPPING $70.00 for this???????????  They're joking, right??????????????????????  Who spends this kind of money for thermal fabric with a a small piece of lace - AND I just saw you can SEE through this fabric that Pat held up - WTHeck???????????????????????????

I see she is on ALOT!! Not a fan so never watch. But all the clothes are extremely costly no matter what line it is. I don't watch and don't buy as I need to actually try stuff on---have wasted so much return $$ in the past ---my New Years resolution is to buy in person!!!

Agreed, all the lines have gone up quite a bit. The Graver line is too pricey for me for polyester. Some of the styles aren't for me, and I don't feel the item is worth the price, plus tax and shipping.

I don't understand why anyone would pay her prices for polyester.  Hot, sticky and makes you sweat.

Her prices are laughable!  Nothing special about her items and I do have several which I bought on QVC's version of a "sale."  Happy with what I've bought but, IMO, she is not a "designer" in the same sense as IM or Del'Olio.  I have bought very nice winter jackets for less than what her blouses go for--LOL!!!

Aside from being overpriced, they look so old fashion. My mother dressed exactly like Susan Graver. Customers have been begging for natural fabrics, which she has limited items after waiting years and years.

The Q owns Graver, so they give enormous tv face time. They wouldn't if they weren't selling.

Same as Barefoot Dreams. Polyester, yet sells for exorbitant prices b/c of marketing and CA. 

Prices have gone up, but Graver, Barefoot, Gravelle have great tv face time and are cashing in on popularity. The more popular, the higher price. That's the name of the game.

Re: Prices for Graver Items

I love Susan's clcothes - most of them.  But she - or the Q - is going to price herself out of business if they keep it up.

 

I think her clothes are classic - maybe some consider that old fashioned.

Her prices are too high, and so are Kim Gravel's. 
If I'm going to pay those prices, I'd rather pay a little more and shop at Dillard's. Better quality and not all polyester.

Better & more affordable options at regular stores with sales (Macys & more)

Reason my clothes shopping is not to get the Q clothes unless an incredible deal or lunchtime deal.

 

Too costly.  They were offering a D And C top $10.00 more than what I paid  last year and was too much then.  

 

Other options is all.
