JPC: The presale on the 1st is on regular Q. I don't ever remember the Q doing a "presale". I think they have 3 shows on July 1st, one early, one mid day and one later at night. I just wonder if the items will be leftovers from last year, but I'm sure I'll tune in to see what they have. I also saw something that said that the CIJ return policy will apply for Christmas items bought from the 1st thru July 31 since they are doing the presale show on the 1st.

I also got the email from Jim Shore and saw that he'll be on the end of July as well as the CIJ weekend, and yes its very early in the morning. Maybe that's the universe's way of keeping us from going broke!!

Let me know the damage when you count your snowmen. I have a feeling that I will be WAY WAY behind in the collection department.

Hi MTH,

Do you have the times for the presale shows on the 1st??? I haven't seen anything on them yet. That is good that the return policy is going to be from the 1st to the 31st of July. Especially if something is going to be a Xmas gift.

I'll bet that is it, MTH. Have the shows on early enough in the morning so we don't go broke.

Will give you a shout out when I check out my JS collection.

Hi MTH,

Did some checking on the internet for the Angel that SPURT has. One of the sites said it is dated 2011 on the bottom. Mine is from 2013 so he has been making the ones with the animals since at least 2011.

Good Morning JPC; The times for the July 1st shows are 6-10 AM; 6-8 PM and 10-12 PM so there are plenty of later shows. I'm sure they will announce any special return policies during that day so I'll be sure to pay attention. I was actually impressed Last night I caught a few minutes of a Steel By Design jewelry show and most items had FREE SHIPPING. I actually ordered an anklet for my niece. I'm going to be put it away for CHristmas. It's about time the Q gave us a bit of a break on the shipping. It made it a really affordable item. Probably not a chance we'll get that kind of break during CIJ but you never know. There has been lots of chatter on these forums about how high shipping is on the Q and people are shopping elsewhere.

If you remember I have the matching Santa with the Woodland Animals which is also an older piece so maybe my Santa matches SPURTS version. Mine also has a base. Both angels are really pretty and different from each other. I just happened to see on Ebay that someone must have acquired a JS collection from an estate and they have about 20 angels they are auctioning off. I'm not really an angel collector, but they were fun to look at. We'll see how much they actually sell for!!

I posted the schedule a little while ago on here in another post QVC Christmas in July 2014 . It's on page 3. On July 1 Carolyn is having a show, "Holiday Decorating with Carolyn CIJ Preview" and the description says it will have "fresh and new ideas", so I sure hope it's new. I need to edit that post for the Q+ show for JS but I'm afraid to touch it. Last time I did it went poof and stupid me had forgot to copy it before clicking [SUBMIT].

Also note, going by the schedule I have, JS only has the shows on 7-19 and 7-31 as a full show. The other times are just items during a show. So it may just be the host showing the piece and not actually him. I don't know.

Hi Ane: Thanks for the updating on the schedules. I believe you are right about only being 2 full JS shows. I didn't see any other times either on the line up for the Q or on the JS website. I'm certainly hoping to see some new items all around this year. Not that I need more decor, but I love to watch and get ideas.

PLEASE - identify what you mean when you just use initials! Is JS Jim Shore?

Hi MTH,

Guess I did forget that you have the matching Santa with the Woodland Animals. You will have to check the date on the bottom to see if it is a 2011 or a 2013.

I don't do many angels either unless they theme is something that I like. I do have 6 or sew quilting or sewing angels and a few others that just spoke to me. I started out with snowmen and then got into the Xmas and Halloween.

You'll have to count to see what you have in your collection. Bet it is more than you think.

I haven't checked them all out on ebay. Just had looked for the one you found for me to I could post a picture here for SPURT.

Hope you are having a good day. Raining here.

Hi Ane,

Thanks so much for sharing this info again. I don't know if I read that in the Xmas in July thread or not. If I did, I forgot it, which could have happened.

That should be a good show with Carolyn. I think she does such a nice job.
