Re: CIJ Purchases and Feedback

[ Edited ]
I've been a forum lurker but a QVC shopper for years. I wound up getting:

Color within spheres in silver and red
set of 3 frosted red VPH finials
As is white mosaic lyre angel
5 Pearl Mosaic trees

(I ordered myself two of the trees, then my mom got mad and demanded two, then my grand mom wanted to take one of mine but was I lucky enough to see a canceled order pop up during a bout of insomnia this morning!)

Saw online that the Lori greiner 6 foot folding trees are led this year. Bought two five footers last year and loved them. I didn't see them presented on air this year. Was hoping to get the smaller set of three but am hoping for all led from this point on. Wish my old ones were led too. Hope they aren't discontinuing these!

I'm also debating on that church cloche. It's my first full Christmas season in my own place away from the parents so I think I'm going decoration crazy...

I can relate to the tree issue, J9, as DD talked me into one, so had to order another for myself. Smiley Happy

Re: CIJ Purchases and Feedback

I just want to make a general blanket statement...so to speak, regarding CIJ purchases we all have made during this month.

 

I must say, I have no regrets on any of mine so far. I am also relieved I didn't wait til later this year to get any of them. Based upon VPH mentioning about 90% of what has been offered so far, there will be no restocking of any of what she has shown before the end of the year! I have been periodically reading lots of posters asking about this, that and the other decor pieces she has sold over the past few weeks and Valerie has been telling everyone 'sorry', they won't be coming back...and not even going further to say whether or not they can be restocked in the future at all.

 

So, for anyone who is on the fence about something they REALLY want, get it before it sells out or is available 'as is'...just saying...HTH Smiley Happy

Re: CIJ Purchases and Feedback

I totally agree! If you see something you like, it is best to grab it now. I think all CIJ purchases qualify for January 31, 2016 return deadline.

 

It seems that Valerie does one order and as they used to say on the Q "When it is gone it is gone!"

 

You can always score am As Is later on if it pops up!

I just received the Lenox musical mug H205530 and I love it! Perfect design and the village is painted perfectly. Music and figures work great. Don't have room for one those big skater diaplays so this will fit perfectly in one of my Christmas displays. So unique!

If you are a member of FB, I highly suggest asking Valerie. She will reply either way to let you know Smiley Happy

Thanks for the welcome, MTH & All,

 

Here's what I've purchased for CIJ so far this year:

 

H204839--VPH 10 1/2-in. star glitter angel. (Set it up on desk in my kitchen--Beautiful!)

H205246--One set of TSV Lenox ornaments (Debating whether to cancel)

K42566--Gingerbread Cooking Buddy--waitlisted  Smiley Sad

 

Last year, I bought:

 

H202709--"As Is" Snowy Owls for woodland scene above kitchen cupboards (did not get that pulled together)

 

H201179--VPH Vintage Frosted Angels (LOVE them on the mantel!)

 

H203320--VPH Frosted Wooden Angel with Wreath  (Imagine my frustration at finding this same angel a few weeks later in a well-known hobby/craft store, where I could have purchased it with a 40% off coupon & no shipping. I thought VPH items were exclusive to QVC, but I guess that's no longer true. Smiley Frustrated )

 

H11283--VPH Antiqued Cathedral 4-Panel Mirror

 

H197823--VPH Beveled Mirror 

 

I'm not a Temptations collector (Fiestaware for me), but I couldn't resist these:

 

K40531--Temptations Gingerbread Measuring Spoons (Adorable on kitchen counter!)

K40922--Temptations Angel Pie Dish & Server (Awesomely Festive!)

 

  

The WANT list is toooo long for the budget.  Smiley LOL

Re: CIJ Purchases and Feedback

Susan Louise,  I'm not on Facebook so wouldn't be able to ask valerie,  but I think that maybe Jill will have them on one of her shows, saw one , a frosted beautiful one that was on her blog when I was looking at her cherry bark recipe.  Maybe she will list it when it is going to be aired.  If anyone here finds out when if you would please post the info that would be great!   So many of you have ways of knowing the item numbers of things so I trust someone will seek it out at some point.
