I haven't seen any Primula mugs lately. They should have been aired by now. Is there a problem with them?

MarkCharles Misilli was the representative for that vendor at QVC, and he was gone for awhile due to some human resources issues, but he has now returned as a rep for a couple of new vendors. It is possible that the change in representation resulted in a decision by Primula to temporarily stop selling its products at QVC. I did a quick Google search, and it seems the mugs and other products are still being sold, so perhaps they will return to QVC in the future.

He was only a. Rep. That would not cause a vendor to stop selling on QVC.Reps are not even employees of QVC. That HR issue was with the rep company and MCM was fired. He has since landed with another company after his non-compete agreement expired.

 

Ive seen Primula on QVC presented y other reps...I want to say Mary Loiuse Ludwig or Jeremy Parker but dont hold me to that.

Primula had a spring or summer set a few years ago and I thought odd because it seemed that we didn't see them much throughout the year but at holiday time mostly.

 

Maybe they'll have a TSV later in the year, hope so.

Both Stacey Stauffer and Chef Jeremy Parker have presented Primula tumblers after Mark Charles left.  But I haven't seen that product since last summer.

 

I think like many things, QVC has been rotating products out, and Primula may have just bit the dust.  Perhaps they'll be back later for the main holiday rush.

i think after item sales slow way down, they stop presentations or limit them. Those were sold mostly in 4pks and how many do you really need and use? saturated the marketplace.
