QVC. It’s a bit rubbish now… ?

When she was young my dd was a Hand model for QVC.

I agree, Fanny.

When I was working, I used to buy jewellery from them and like you enjoyed the more unusual pieces. Do you remember, New York Gems? I always lusted after those flashy pieces and promised myself that, one day I would buy a piece.
Also, I bought Bare Minerals and Elemis, when they were TSVs. They were excellent value.
Marla Wynne, pieces are my style, having bought them new on Ebay. However, they are certainly not worth what QVC charge.
As for Lola Rose, I have a stash of similar stones in my jewellery making kits and I can tell, the mark up is huge!!

You mentioned the model Stacey, whom I loved watching. She had a huge fall out with QVC USA.

Filed on 3/21/07: Plaintiffs Stacey and David Schieffelin and Models Prefer Ltd. sued defendant QVC Inc. alleging that QVC coerced the plaintiffs into executing a distribution agreement under which defendant had the exclusive worldwide right to distribute and promote Models Prefer health and beauty products. Plaintiffs further allege that QVC has appropriated the Models Prefer trademark, converted it for their own use and purpose, have decreased the value of the Models Prefer trademark through their actions, and tortiously interfered with plaintiffs' prospective business relations.

There you go Fanny, I am a fountain of all trivia knowledge.

Oh Kirk’s Folly! Their things were so quirky. It was actually entertaining to watch in its own right, there were some characters on there.

I think you could be right Fanny it’s certainly not as good as it used to be. There’s too much repetition.
My mum was the same WW2 I smile to myself if I see things on there I know she would buy! One Christmas she even got a card from them. We wondered just how much she had spent with them to receive that! I have a few of her Kirks Folly pieces.
I used to buy L’occitane stuff but now buy from there own stores if nearby or the website where p&p is free if you spend a certain amount.

I totally agree about the fashion YorkLady

I have bought L’Occitane and Elemis at fantastic prices. That’s all I have ever purchased. I have always thought that the fashion and jewellery sold, were not to my taste.
Doubt that it’s days are numbered as they still attract big names and seem to sell out lots of their stock.

The jewellery used to be amazing !
I bought lots from them. Lots of really unusual pieces and gems.
Now it’s all Clogau ‘gold’ ( it’s mainly silver) and Lola Rose.
I recently bought a Lola Rose necklace for nearly £80 (it looked fab in the photos) and it was utter tat.
Re make up. I used to love that ex-model Stacie who had her hair in rollers and would do her makeup from scratch.

Mum always used to watch it when she got housebound. She used to buy jewellery and makeup. Oh and Christmas wrapping packages which were jolly nice.
