@Lipstickdiva, I really liked that ankle bracelet as well. I hope it comes back in more more colors. The ones she offered would not work for me.

 

Usually, Last Call and Sold Out alerts go up pronto on her site. Her fans have been begging for Christmas, but it wasn't moving too fast.  It makes me wonder if they didn't actually all sell out in the middle of the night last night, and she pulled the product until closer to Christmas when it might be more popular (and put on Sold Out signs to make them seem  hard-to-get).


 

 

And then announce in November 'I've managed to get some more, clever and wonderful as I am, you lucky people. Hurryhurry now!'

Lisa is working hard for her fans non-stop 24/7/365. When she's not jetting out to LA to have Chaz cut her hair - courtesy of her obliging fans financial contributions.

 

If an item of jewelry comes in three colors, they will buy it in all three colors - and re-sell two of them at a loss six months later - so they can buy three more of something else and repeat the process - while posting 2-3 selfies per week wearing every piece they own, complete with middle-aged deliberate pouty-lip. The visuals often remind me of a Cher song.

l bought some of her things last year and ended up returning them because the quality wasn't there. For the money it's wasn't there for me. She is a wonderful lady I'm wondering if that is why her items are always selling out.


 

 

Just me, but I would never consider spending money simply because the seller was "wonderful." The mdse is either worth it...or not. Buying for any other reason is contributing to someone's private charity - which some have likened LR's couch sessions to.

 

I've seen few items where similar things can't be found elsewhere for less. Several things were very similar to QVC offerings. $1230 Xmas tree, anyone?


While I wouldn't spend that for a tree, have you seen the price of trees at some places like Balsam Hill? 

 

I do think the trees she is offering are gorgeous but too rich for my blood and if her other things are overpriced, I wonder if the same tree can be found cheaper elsewhere?

The trees are gorgeous - very pricey, but gorgeous.  Her return policy is not very generous and her shipping is very high.

Re: LR Christmas Items

I agree with those who think Lisa just doesn't carry a large quantity of anything -- hence, all the quick sell-outs.  And from what I have been able to tell, there are certain times you are actually allowed to shop for her new items.  I'm sorry -- I'm not about to arrange my schedule so I can make sure I'm home when it's "time" to shop with Lisa Robertson or anyone else.

Tribe members are buying things for other Tribe members who aren't able to shop at the designated time so no one misses out on the "treasures"   LOL

I think this too.  She learned all these lessons from QVC.

 

I get so tired of the, "Once it's gone, it's gone; Only order of the year; It will take a year to get them back in stock; The price will never be lower; and on and on and on.  The hosts are all a broken record.

They do seem to photograph quite well.  I just wonder how bright they look in person. My rooms are smaller, and I prefer a more subtle, soft glow to my tree for ambiance.  I feel this style would completely overwhelm the room and could possibly be bright enough for a tonsillectomy.

And all those Christmas items that all of a sudden sold out overnight last night??? Mark my words they will all of a sudden reappear as "advance orders". She will say she was able to get more in, and they know the quantity they were able to get so buckle up! Better get yours now! All the while they will have been in her inventory all along and here comes round two of the feeding frenzy. Oh dear tribers. You fall for it every time!
