Insincerity at it's best. I am not a fan of him either, also I once heard him bashing people who did not leave 5 star reviews. He implied it was them that was at fault and couldn't possibly be anything wrong with the wonderful products at QVC. F-off, not his place to comment in my opinion.

It does put pressure on the customer, re-inforced by the spiel on how simple returns are if you change your mind when you get it home. Yes, good point, it's very true that it may stop other orders being placed but as MrMarple said, it is QVC's fault. They should do what most others do and remove...

I like Alexandria and Jacqui too. I prefer Alex presenting on QVC, I wasn't so keen on her on Gemporia but I think it was the mandatory presenting style adopted on Gems and not Alex personally. Her brother Jeff is still doing presenting on Gems, he is mellow and not too OTT, I will watch him on...

That is a good idea, no point in having a lot of jewellery that you know will bever be worn is it? Your friend did well, those old cash for gold envelopes we all got in the post were a rip-off. You were supposed to be sent an offer for your gold to accept or decline. If you declined, they were...

I agree, the designs are not what they used to be and I think I got bored as well but there are die-hard fans ot there with hundreds of Kiplings. I have just been looking through the boxes, some of them I will keep but I have set a limit of three so now I have to choose. ucky you were able to...

All those subs you mention remind me of those terrible payday loan companies and shops. I have never used one myself but saw a tv programme, from the US whch was documenting the vicous circle people get trapped in. They go month to month on these very expensive loans, t's lke a hamster on the...

I can completely empathise with everything you have said. I was the same, easy breezy attitude to paying off the debt I was incurring, minimum payment all the time and keep on buying unnecessary stuff and getting more credit and store cards (18 in total, no word of a lie). Granted, some of it...

Oh yes, I forgot to say all the pricng errors they make, if it were true they would have been out of business many moons ago! Seriously, who falls for that crap? As you say Deasmum, the stuff is barely flashed on the hand , if at all in some auctions, often just the light box. Then when a ring...

I used to buy a fair bit of Kipling. Practical, light and easy care but not elegant in my opinion. Well, they were so wonderful that I have only ever used 1 and the rest are in a box in the little room. All as new in their plastic baggies. I think I need to clear them out, there is about 9 or 10...

I was saying on a Gemporia thread that January is sooo long. However, the bank account is a bit dry but no credit card bills to worry about. Mine is in the safe and doesn't see the light of day. The last one was never used in 3 years and expired. Another one I didn't use, closed my account...

Miceal is supposed to be "nose" as well I believe, very into perfumes but I may have got my knickers in a twist about that fact!

I wish I had gone for the motganite way back in the day when we got decent stones, well set in a good amount of gold but that ship has sailed and I missed it. The stuff they push now seems like very small, pale stones, usually set in a minscule amount of rose gold. I think the rose gold...

I agree about the ligt box, it does make you questioin why the item is not being shown in the flesh, so to speak. Also about the talking incessantly, often about nothing to do whatsoever with the piece they are selling. When they do wheelie hours, they rabbit about the item but the camera is...

Prices have gone up and gold weights gone down. It is a sorry state of affairs really for those who appreciate the channel. They have a very loyal fan base and I feel they exploit this fact. The p&p is on the up as well, not had an increase i a long time but they apparently get a great deal with...

I bought a sherpa cardigan last year. Can't remember the brand offhand but it was on a deal, still pricey but the hype got me! I like the cardi, warm but not stiffling, short, as am I so it is practical for doing stuff and not just lounging. Not at all flattering and I am built like a short...

So true!

I wonder what the t&c's will be on that voucher? I have read reviews that say people have found it almost if not mpossible to buy their chosen item using voucher codes due to the enormous amount of restrictions in the small print. They were selling Rieshi mushroom coffee and cocoa yesterday...

We have no travel plans for the forseeable future. I would like to get away somewhere but honestly, the faff we had last year just getting up to Yorkshire! Paul's Mum lives up near Halifax but she only has 1 bedroom, so we stay at the Holiday Inn when we go up. We had to re-schedule the hotel 4...

I always use Quidco but QVC have never honoured anything. I have about 16 items that were tracked, not easy pay items but never paid out. Same with Gemporia, I stopped shopping with that company lst year but for years and years, I never received a bean from them to my Quidco account. A total...

I find Charlie Bears a little scary, I prefer Steiff but don't own any of their bears. I do have a Steiff rat. It is called Nikki the rat and is based on the retired racing driver Nikki Lauder, I kid you not! He wears a racing driver's suit with a cap. I found him in a shop in Germany that sold...
