I see there is Dooney tsv in November. No photo available yet, but  i'm already disappointed. I hope I am wrong, but at $229, it can't be much of a bag. The last TSV in September was at that price, and it was undersized and didn't have the accessory with it. I doubt this one does either. I wonder why qvc is trying to hit such a low price point with this brand! My first Dooney back in 1980  or '81 cost around $265, which was pricey st the time. When will they wise up and do a really great TSV with a ,Florentine bag?  I don't think QVC is doing right by the Dooney brand when it chooses to offer something so inexpensive. I bought the new Sadie Florentine large feed sack from Dooney direct a couple of months ago, and I love it. Give us that quality, please. I have not bought a Dooney from QVC since the fabulous Brennas came out, two years ago or so. I still love and use those bags which I bought in five colors. Oh well....

I dont have the November Insider yet so I don't know about any TSV.  I hope they don't include accessories.  they just drive up the cost of the bag and I have enough.  WHo needs another key fob, or needed one in the first place.  ANother pouch?  Got plenty.  $229 is a lot of money for most people to spend on a bag and the q is out to sell lots of bags.

Exactly. Their goal is volume sales and they've likely assessed there are not a huge number of viewers who routinely have more than a couple hundred dollars to spend on bags. They probably also figure anyone seeking a higher end bag realizes they have plenty of options about where they might obtain one without relying on a supposedly 'special value' through QVC. I also agree that another key fob at this point is rather pointless. The only accessory I ever though was worthwhile was the kiss lock purse that used to come with the Logo Lock. Unfortunately, I never liked the bag. Personally, I'm pretty likely not going to be much interested in whatever they come up with. There are only a few Dooney bags at this point I'd consider and it's unlikely any of them will be the one.

Love the strap; but have no interest in the bag.

 

Also, since someone mentioned the accessories, don't you love when they tell you your bag and accessories can be broken up into gifts?  Like someone's going to want that key fob for a gift.  Give me a break.
