@I am appleblossom:  Many years ago, when she first came to QVC she had substantial things with little or no diamonique at decent prices; those days are long gone.  Check her out on EBay for older items and sometimes fair prices.

I so agree @I am appleblossom@patbz, her prices are out of sight and unmanageable for some here even with easy pay.  We are not couture though thats all they speak of that items were replicated like the couture line.

I saw a gemstone necklace of hers in the case at TJ Maxx yesterday.  I had to look twice, I thought I was seeing things. So much for coutoure.

I watched a few minutes of a show late last night where they presented this bracelet for $1,000.  Allison pointed out it has 9cts of gemstones.  Wow, a whole 9cts of common blue topaz, peridot etc.  but it has ruby eyes.  Sterling silver of course.  They must be dreaming.

It is a pretty piece.  I was blown away by the price!

@I am appleblossom Amen Sister. I want a bangle badly but no way am I paying over $1,000 for gold over SS even though it does have quite a bit of stone weight.   I can add $2,000 to the $1,000 and get a natural yellow diamond (non-enhanced and 3/4 carat) which I know the value will go up as it goes through the generations.   DRATS, that bangle is calling my name but 1. Cost too high for what it is  2.  It is not on sale at all  3. I do not even know what are in the boxes of jewelry I have in drawers as it is, thus I need to stop compulsive purchasing.

Since Judith no longer owns the company, I don't think should be the spokesperson. It is rather misleading. I doubt she designs any of the stuff. Never watch her.

I've been shocked at some of the prices for awhile now. 

 

Someone must be buying these expensive pieces or they wouldn't be offered.  Smiley Frustrated
