Which QVC Vendors do you miss?

[Kerri13]

I LOVED Loni Andersen and I miss her jewelery! I also miss: Annette Funicello Bears, Lara Lincoln Park Nail Care.

I however DON'T miss Lee Sands. Well, even if he still does shows. That stuff was AWEFUL!

And you?

[Sunshine]

Lee Sands items are still popular on QVC. In fact he was recently on the air for a few shows.

Also, I think you are talking about Larr Park Lincoln. She is the attractive blonde he pitched everything from the California Beauty Tanning System to compact travel cases. She was on the air about two months ago and had quite a bit of a weight gain. Perhaps she was off the air because she was expecting etc.

[dogma]

I remember her mentioning something about being in a wheelchair for awhile but I don't remember why. Didn't she act on Dallas along time ago?

[shopping]

Actually, I think that she was on Knots Landing. I can't remember her character, but she wasn't on for the duration of the show, maybe just 2 seasons?

[Trilby]

I can think of a few I'd like to miss and Susan Graver tops the list!

[bigfatstel]

There is a product that used to be on For Race Fans Only and the Morning Show sometimes. It is a sport team schedule watch--you can pick a sports team and it has their schedule, etc. and plays the national anthem when it is time for a game to start.

I only miss it because one of my clients/friends is the VP of the company, and he'd be on QVC with them! It was cool to watch him and gossip about the behind the scenes stuff at QVC. I don't think he's been on this year. : (

Annette Funicello Bears are gone? I hadn't noticed. I really liked them. I like Boyds Bears too but I miss that Gary guy presenting them. Anybody know what ever happened to him?

[Beve1]

Eskie, You are talking about Gary Lowenthal. At first I heard he was not feeling well, at least that's what MaryBeth Roe told me in an email. When I wrote to her again, she denied that he was ill, and just said he wanted to spend more time with his family. It seems he is still involved with the bears, just not doing shows anymore. I liked him also. He was as bit off the wall, but he's a nice guy.

I love Boyd's bears, and have many of them from the Q and the shops in my area.

[EskieRuth]

Thanks for the info. At first I wondered if he and Mary Beth had a thing going but the more I know Mary Beth I'm sure that's not true. Just my evil mind at work. LOL. Glad to know he's still involved with the bears. I haven't bought any of those bears yet but I sure want to at some point.

[Beve1]

Eskie, nah...can't picture MaryBeth foolin' around. She's too goody goody.

The bears are really adorable, and I love the names. For Christmas, my girlfriend, who also collects, found a bear called "Ivana Shopalot". I could not stop laughing.

[EskieRuth]

Yah you're right. Like I said when I first started watching. I have great respect for MB and I know she wouldn't fool around. I love the names also. They are always really cute.

[galemarie]

Molly Dallas. Beautiful dinnerware! There are others as well. QVC has "lost" me!

[Momof2]

Whatever happened to Doris Pooser (?) She was a stylist (fashion/accessories) Don't miss her... just curious.

[beaglelvr]

Hey, I remember that Doris lady. Does anyone know more about her? Also, I know he's still on occasionally, but it seems like we used to see him a lot more: Jim Whitaker with Black Hills Gold. Also, does anyone remember Linda Evans being on AM Style with sunglasses? Not that I miss her, either, but it sure does seem like they have a rapid vendor turnover.

[bigfatstel]

I hate black hills gold....My husband got me this hideous pendant with three plumeria flowers for Valentine's Day last year. I wore it into work, and my friends saw it and KNEW right away it was a gift--I rip on BHG all the time....I couldn't be nice and ride it out--I broke down and called my hubby and nicely told him I hated it! ARGGHHHH! He won't let me live it down!

[Momof2]

It's so awkward to receive a gift that you hate. That's why I tell my husband that I'll pick out the gift so that he doesn't have to bother ;)

[bigfatstel]

I tried--he said that is ungracious and insulting to him! : ) I had a Movado watch in hand at the outlet, called him and said I had picked out my Christmas present, and he went nuts.....I had to listen to the "blah blah blah lecture" from him.... Want to trade?

[junebug]

I think Linda Evans also used to be on selling that creepy face mask. What ever happened to the Nesco lady? Maybe she's still on during the holidays.

[Momof2]

I don't think Pat would like an old broad like me! LOL My husband, on the other hand probably like a young hottie for a change. Too bad! He's stuck with me! hahahahaha

[beekeeper]

What about that lady who used to sell the "rolly" jewelry kits ... what ever happend to her? I think her name was Joy Mangano .. or something ... sorry, I can't remember!

[Momof2]

Joy Mangano is on HSN now.

[beaglelvr]

Hi Bee, You are right, it was Joy Mangano. We had a thread on her last week about the roly kits, jewelery kits, hangers, etc. She's over on HSN now, but I don't know what she's selling these days.

I have another one - I heard Mary Beth last night talk about how Candi Spelling used to be on with dolls. I don't recall her, but what ever happened to that Beverly Hills Gold lady, Claudia?

[Momof2]

Beverly Hills Gold has a different rep. on those shows. Don't know whatever happened to Claudia Hollingsworth (?)

[beaglelvr]

Hi Mom, you're too quick :) Of course, I can't ever make it a simple reply.
