It happens all the time at any retailer...online or B&M. It's just the luck of the draw.

So because you chose to make this purchase in August and chose to use Easy Pay QVC should not be allowed to reduce the price until you have fully paid? Should all retailers follow this practice?
How exactly would that work? After buying groceries, should the supermarket not put any items on sale until you have eaten everything? Why not?
Look, we all make decisions on what to buy. You obviously thought you got a good deal in August, so do not whine about it now because you made the choice -- QVC did not force you to make the purchase.

I'm sorry but I can't see blaming QVC for that... Honestly, they can't possibly be expected to keep track of who bought what when and then not offer anything at a reduced price until it's 'fair' to everyone... This sort of thing happens to me frequently and it really rankles when it does, especially for items I might not have even used yet... That said, it is what it is and to expect otherwise seems at least a bit unreasonable... I can think of lots of reasons for leaving QVC in the dust but this sn't one of them...
Apparent consensus aside, I really do wish some would learn a synonym for the word "whine"... Really, there's no need to try so consistently to be so consistently demeaning. Occasionally, yes, I get it, but not as a steady diet!

Sorry, that is just life and it happens every day. My living room TV went out several weeks ago after a slow and painful death. (LOL) I kept pushing it , trying to make it to Black Friday. I do have a TV in my bedroom, but this was my main living room T.V. Well, I made the decision to purchase another TV and not wait. Guess what? I am seeing ads left and right now that are bumming me out. Great savings are available now.
My point being, that I do not have any sour grapes. I made the decision to move forward with the purchase and I will have to deal with the fact that I have left money on the table.

If you'd bought it outright and it went on sale within a week or so, most stores, the Q included, would probably give you some consideration, but come on, purchasing on Easy Pay over three or more months and they're not supposed to mark it down until you've paid it off? I understand the frustration. We all share it when we pay for something and then watch it sold a month or so later for less, but I don't think it's incumbent upon them to hold off on changing a price until everyone who might have purchased it on EP has paid it in full...

You are right Calmin...ALL retailers do it...in fact one of local news channels had a story about how if you saw an item with a price that ended in a six---wait a week or two NS that very item would be their next sale item......it was some kind of a code they used....

Annie....The only way I think you would have a case if the host had said in August this is going to be the lowest price for the rest of the year.....and THEN they offered it on a lower clearance price later on in the year.....and you could prove it....example a video of the host saying it on the website....then I think ya ""got em""....otherwise...unfortunately that is how retail works and the old adage...let the buyer beware....
