Presentations for the viewing audience

It seems more and more,some of the hosts are using presentation time for yelling out,their orders.The time in front of the camera is ,I thought for the viewers to shop.My suggestion,is have the hosts and the models make their choices AFTER the viewers have made their selections.I find it quite irritating,if I am interested in an item and the host is not giving me all my choices,rather,as I said yelling about how many they want the producer to buy for them.Q.V.C.,if this really is a suggestion Box,please take a look at my suggestion,I think you will find ,most viewers are in agreement with me!

This is a sales tactic -- one to get people to get their orders in quickly. The hosts are not snatching product out of viewers' hands.

The hosts and models know what will be sold well in advance along with the price points. Additionally, former host Kathy Levine once addressed the issue, indicating if an item sells outr, any pending employee orders are cancelled to allow product to go to viewers.

I always thought that was a sales ploy also. A ridiculous one, at that!
