the "CLAUDIA" ring

[Tinkerbelle]

Interestingly if you were to sell your ring today, which you're clearly not going to, you would get about £110 for it for scrap. Just for the gold! The diamonds may or may not sell separately.

I sold a broken bracelet that was plain 9ct gold last week and got just over £12 per gram.

wow what hike in price! i keep remembering jewellery that i considered but didnt buy... bummer lol

 

[Silver Fox]

I treated myself to this ring several years ago ( can't remember the price then!) Mine is white gold & I love it.It is a weighty piece, if it is still the same & the kind of ring you could wear all the time.I don't know if I would pay today's price tho'?

... I will not spend, I will not spend I will not spend I will not spend, I will not spend I will not spend I will not spend, I will not spend I will not spend I will not spend, I will not spend I will not spend I will not spend, I will not spend I will not spend I will not spend, I will not spend I will not spend

No see, my brain says,"Spent it quick, spend it quick, spend it quick ...." because, Christmas is coming & from next month onwards I'm going to have to spend His pension on others :angel:

 

[Loveinamist]

So much for the "first 12 showings introductory price" !!!

 

[Brissles]

Makes you wonder how many of these rings, and others, qvc had in stock at the old prices, and have held back the jewellery shows in order to justify the hike in prices to give them even more of a massive profit.

No matter how much I make like a piece, I wont be buying any more jewellery from this channel.

last time it was on air it was £309.96 now its £330

 

[lippylolly]

I thought I was dreaming when I saw the price today, I really wanted it when it a while back and couldn't afford it. I was sure it was around the 160 mark...utterly shocked when I saw the price today. Pretty though it is, not worth it. I'll keep trawling the last clicks for my gemset gold

Gold has just dropped by a considerable amount as China & India have bought less of late.

Doubt if QVC will make the new batch any cheaper.

 

[Weathergirl]

yes but i`m faily certain this ring will not feature on gold day

If you are prepared to take a hit on p & p you can always return it and re order at gold day price if its cheaper or to take advantage of the easy pay.

Beware though, the stuff looks much bigger and nicer on air than in real life. Those wire wrap strands could be hollow tubes when you get it home, rather than the solid piece you deserve for that money. If you already have the yellow gold you may not wear another colour to justify the price. If you wear a lot of silver the white gold may be a good choice though.

Have they stopped mentioning who designed it? Seems like Claudia is being forgotten.

 

[Silver Fox]

I bought the white gold version a few years ago & really love it.I was always intending to buy the yellow gold one but with the price now that is a none starter.
It is a heavy substantial ring just wondering if it is the same today?

 

[RICKY S]

Have they stopped mentioning who designed it? Seems like Claudia is being forgotten.

Yeah, I noticed that. Even on the website description, it no longer mentions that Claudia designed it.
Must be because she left & now does her own range of very expensive (or over-priced) jewellery.

Hello , I still miss Claudia

 

[donna255]

No doubt QVC:mysmilie_17: will tell us, but the price of gold went up so much.

Claudia went off to start her own business, good luck to her.

 

[Vianne]

I love it in rose gold, but the white gold looks cheap IMO.

 

[thatu]

At that price I'd wait till another brand does a rose-gold or white-gold-plated copy. If the ring's popular, it'll probably happen.
