Re: Dames and Legends... What Becomes Us Most...

I just checked the infamous Dooney from last night. The price went up to $279, but the S&H is still $19.47. SMH.

@handygal2 There is also Navy and Black in that hobo -- I love Dooney's black suede. So dark and rich! But I just noticed that this bag has a magnetic snap and not a zipper closure, so it's not for me.

Yea someone is definitely 'having an episode' with that $20 S/H.

Uh uh @EdithEllenLily @Bird mama @handygal2  there is no 'evening out' with their shipping charges simply because they occasionally throw in a free shipping bone. They're ridiculous, especially when you consider the price of these bags, the fact that they ship free from almost any other retailer and the fact that customers here are expected to fork over another fee to ship them back. They've lost their minds with that twenty dollar shipping fee and I have to wonder if they aren't floating it out there as a trial balloon to see how much of a stink they generate. There is nothing so special about that bag to warrant such a high rate.

@stevieb : I agree. They're pushing the envelope to see how far they can go before they get a backlash.

After yesterday's discovery of a Dooney with S&H of $19.47, today I see a Hot Pick with FREE S&H...maybe they even each other out? 

 

I do like this suede hobo in the Amber color.

Even weird-er:

 

Yesterday's show with Jane and Sue, they showed a "new" Dooney called the Libby, which has the logo lock closure.

1. Even though it was BEING SHOWN, the item still wasn't pictured on the web site ("images coming soon"). Plus no information on size.

2. It was $269 + 12.22 shipping.

3. Pebble leather, red lining.

 

Compare. I went to Dooney.

1. The Libby in FLORENTINE, not pebble, was originally $368, now $209!

2. Free shipping!

3. Exact same size.

4. Leather chamois lining!

Really, QVC?????

 

So, if a customer bought the Libby yesterday in pebble (ugly red lining) for $269 + 12.22 shipping,

They could have had the Florentine leather version (leather lining) for $209. Free shipping.

The whole QVC system crashed (again) this AM and my Access was denied (again).  Spent a delightful 20 minutes with Customer Service. Maybe they think that I am a trouble maker. 

 

My favorite:

@Bird mama  In grade school, I got straight "A's" and a "C" in conduct.  My Mom hated to go to the teacher's conference. My step-dad didn't even go at all.

@hicindy2  Dear Cindy Dos... it's heartening to know that that your demeanor has remained consistent...
