Kim,

    the term "important" is used as a euphemism for "very expensive". In
    High Society it is considered rude to talk about price. However to
    indicate upper 6 digits term "important" is used. You right about
    QVC of course. It is more likely to find a martian, than jewellery
    which can be called "important" on QVC.
