Vionic - Why Lack of Inventory on QVC

Does anyone know why the Vionic inventory is so very limited now on QVC?  There are also some styles that are no longer current with maybe one size available.  By all appearances, it appears that QVC is fazing out their relationship with Vionic as this limited inventory and discontinued styles is similar to other once-popular brands like It Cosmetics that are now no longer being sold on QVC.

First ... Welcome!   Woman Happy

 

Second ... I doubt these shoes are manufactured in the U.S., so the "T" word comes to mind.  

 

I'm betting a LOT of retailers are going to have a reduced amount of inventory in their warehouses.

 

We all saw it coming, and now it's here.

Thanks for the warm welcome! Yes, that was my first thought also... tariffs.

I noticed inventory dwindling for a while now. Long before talk of tariffs. It's unfortunate because this was a great place to find some fashionable styles in a small size and wide width at a decent price.

 

 

Is Kim Gravel starting a shoe line they need to make room for?

Could Belle Booties be on the way?

@Nuph  I think Tarrifs have nothing to do with inventory or pricing, as another contributer has said.  I have found that in all aspects, QVC probably is not buying as much inventory.  Things sell out very quickly now. QVC's pricing in all aspects across all brands and categories,  have increased in price over 20-40% at least.  pretty hefty. The sales are minimal in price decreases.  The increases happened at the beginning of the summer before Tarrifs were fully implemented. I think, that all companies, restaurants, car washes, groceries, are just increasing their margins because they can.

 

I have been waiting for Issac's fall line but it has not appeared. I don't see him on the schedule even. Did not know about IT cosmetics. That is a shame. Vionic and Barefoot Dreams pricing has REALLY increased.

@Hoping for the best   I noticed that lately when they show the size availability chart, lots of the sizes start out either not available (gray) or limited (yellow). Seems to affect the very small and larger plus size items.

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it.
For example, I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.

yes usually something new has been shown, maybe he's

 I have thought Q carries way too much inventory, think about all the year + stuff they show at $5 off

Please don't give QVC any ideas.

@Nuph  Have you considered purchasing directly from their website?  No issues w/inventory there.
