Love watching the show but there is nothing quite like seeing a piece you own, and are STILL paying off, become a OTO for $100 less than what you originally paid for it. Ugh. Too far past the 30 day deadline and I love the bracelet but it did make my stomach sink a little bit. Almost wish I didn't tune it but guess I need to remind myself that I would've missed it had I waited.

I am in exactly the same boat with you.....My thoughts exactly.

That's a remarkable OTO price. I paid full $$ for it and love it. Wish they'd chosen something new for an OTO--I'd love the matching new bangle but not for $100.00

It helps me to remember how pleased I was when I made a purchase rather than worrying about the price over and over again.

I'm pretty sure we all know that eventually things do go on sale whether we're shopping here or almost any place.  Lots of times, I do wait.  But I also learned years ago that if I let something I really want pass me by, I'll live to regret that decision more than I'll regret the loss of the sale dollars.

I've also become more patient with age and less inclined to blame Nordies or QVC for " forcing" me to buy something and then putting it on sale later.  I know when I'm paying full price why I'm doing that.  Some things just don't last to go on sale.

 Made me wince a bit too!

I agree with you millieshops, not all items go on sale and sell out instead and do not return.  If an item "speaks to you" and you don't make that purchase, you do tend to remember it.  I am also still paying for Scott Kay items, but I have enjoyed wearing them and the compliments too.  I did take advantage of the OTO and look forward to getting it!

I feel your pain ladies, but due to the Barbara Bixby OTO cross.  I just made my last easy pay payment and now it is over $125 less than what I paid for it.  Same for her Multi-Gemstone Heart Enhancer.

I missed Scott's show today but saw the OTO bracelet when reviewing the Recently on Air items.  I am on waitlist for it.  If I get it I hope it will ease the sting of the extra $250+ dollars I paid 5 months ago for my BB pieces.  But I had wanted them for so long.  And like someone said, you never know when something sells out if it will come back in stock.

We can't always be on the right side iof a sale.  Just enjoy your bracelet and don't give it a scond thought!

I feel your pain, ladies. I did order that bracelet for my mother for Christmas yesterday. However, there have been plenty of times that I'ved paid full price for jewelry and then been bummed to see it offered at a greatly reduced price.

Thanks all, appreciate you sharing your thoughts and sorry that some are in the same boat. I think we can all agree that none of us are blaming QVC and yes, sometimes we are all on the wrong side of a sale, but when the amounts are $100+ and you are still paying for an item, it can cause some hearts to sink. That is simply human nature. I've only been watching Q for a few years but in that time I don't think I've ever seen OTO's drop in price quite as much as it has on these jewelry designer shows. I can only hope this is a new trend so perhaps one of these days, I'll be on the "right" side of the sale. Regardless, I do love my bracelet and will continue to enjoy it and not think about the cost (once I've made the last payment of course!).
