I don't know how long this line has been on QVC but I know it was on HSN before Q. I don't know if it was also on another shopping channel or just HSN and Q.

What's so sad about it? The company he represents has made a fortune and now the demand for it has dwindled. The women who remember that era have heard the stories and seen the snap shots a zillion times, they've purchased the items they want. The line had successful run for many years on a couple of shopping channels. Now it's time to say good night folks....

Women with class enjoy watching shows that represent a woman with class. Not much of that on QVC any more. Mr. Katz and his beautiful jewelry will be missed.

Although I never purchased, I always enjoyed the shows. Mr. Katz did a wonderful job showing the photos and giving us the background behind them. I will miss the shows. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis beautiful and so stylish--I remember that era well.

I personally will miss the shows and am sad they will be ending since they are one of the few, besides Quacker Factory, that I made sure to watch. Phil Katz is low-key and informative, hype-free and seems to have a love for the collection, taking pride in what they do and how customers appreciate it.

I started watched a few years ago and have purchased items because they appeal to me and wear well, not just because of the history. I wonder if these pieces will retain their value if I, or someone in my family, ever wanted to part with them. Not that I buy them for that but it'll be interesting to check Ebay every once in awhile.

Phil, you are a first class guest and many of us will miss you!

I am sad to hear that this collection will no longer be shown. I only purchased one piece, a pin, but loved listening to Mr. Katz" stories.

I bought the famous 'Chanel' style three strand pearls years ago and they are still GORGEOUS! I loved watching Mr Katz and seeing the pictures and hearing the stories. That said, I found most of the items looked fake.

I'm glad I opened this thread...I got the paperclip bracelet to match my necklace.

They sell a small number of items in the Vermont Country Store site too.

I always enjoyed these shows.

My late aunt bought me many of the pieces...they always remind me of my aunt, Jackie and John John!

I enjoyed the shows and hearing the stories behind the jewelry pieces. I have a beautiful pin I bought a few years ago and just bought the hoop earrings. I admire Jackie Kennedy and think she brought a timeless elegance and class to the White House and was the epitome of what a First Lady should be.

Chrystaltree, people will miss the shows because they admired and remember Jackie fondly, and because Mr. Katz is low-key and informative, hype-free. Doesn't tell viewers, "It's only a dollar a day." Because it's something many have enjoyed over the years, much more than most other presentations. It's an interesting program.

Agree completely! No dancing around or goofy faces, no talking as fast as an auctioneer, no hype. Just information, not only about the Kennedys, but history about jewelry, and people of that time. I learned a lot. What can we look forward to now, another Dyson TSV, Vitamix, Temptations, computers, and more same old, same old? As one poster said in another forum, QVC is starting to sound like a long infomercial.

I am bummin. I have a few of the pieces and I will miss the line. I loved the history behind the jewelry.
