Re: Thoughts on Gold Day??

I thought it was great and have the liberty coin bracelet on my WL...the only available size is 6 3/4...I'd love it in 7 1/4.....but it's a steal at the clearance price!

A pitiful version of previous years. Terrible prices - they don't seem to be reflecting the reductions in the price of gold.

Was Mary Beth on at all during gold day? I can't watch all day but for many years she was the closer.

Wish they would sell more WHITE gold! Tired of everything being yellow.

Yes she started off selling the Oro Nouvo or whatever the filled or plated gold is called.

I wasn't able to watch any TV or use the computer, but looked on my phone.

I thought a lot of good peices were shown that I've never seen before.

I'm on waitlist for the solid gold bangle. I hope it doesn't fall through. I ordered it in large.

Now I'm kicking myself that I didn't just go for the average. That may've been still available.

Are the gold deals still going? off to check!

I was very busy at work this week, but ordered three items, two rings and an omega necklace, yesterday. Only the omega was on easy-pay.

I am glad the Q sends reminders about these things or I would have missed these items. To me the selection seemed much stronger this year. There have been improvements in inventory and pricing since gold prices started going down a few years ago. They are still 40% higher than they were in 2006, though.

For my two cents on name change: have an idea the word "Rush" may have something to do with it as in rush to buy etc, and they may want to take a more low key approach.

I was disappointed that most of the hosts did not dress up. Especially Antonella, Q gold lady, did not take the opportunity to dress up. Also don't understand why she was relegated to a non prime time schedule for the day.

But 'California Gold Rush' denotes an historical event. I think they're trying to make the show titles plainer for this younger customer base they're tying to attract from flipping through their on-screen cable listings. They don't want to use the QVC jargon that make senses to us, who remember all those years waiting for the program guide to come in the mail and seeing exactly what we expected to see, California Gold Rush on January 24. In December 2015, Silver Style became Silver Style Jewelry. Discover Diamonique became Discover Diamonique Jewelry. Destination Gold became Destination Gold Jewelry. Vicenza Style becomes Italian Jewelry. Big Bonanza Silver Sale becomes....????

Antonella was in her usual timeslot, taking over for Lisa Mason. Jane took Lisa Robertson's timeslot and Rick took Mary Beth's.
