AS IS

Dar321 — Sat, 11 Nov 2017 21:18:59 GMT

Has any one ordered any "as is" products?? Are they usually ok, and worth a try, or should I not bother? A lot of them are discounted, but not really that steeply. Any help appreciated!

I never have and never will. I've read waaaay to many posts here about "as is" being dirty, torn, smelly, broken, etc.

I think one would have better luck at a garage sale where you could see the used item before you bought it.

I'll pass, no how, no way.

I purchased 2 pairs of Clarks Medora Gemma shoes - and they were brand new - and perfect. Paid 1/2 price. If it's a newer product (rather a product over a year old), I'd take a chance. If u receive something "used" or in bad shape - return it to QVC and make sure u write on the form that it's defective - so u don't have to pay.

I guess I've been lucky.

I don't order a lot but anything I ever did order as is was like new-different categories.

But I've read here that many have had not such good results so I guess you take a chance.

If it is defective in any way you can return with shipping refunded as well.

But I expect "as is" to be perfectly all right as it should be.

my experience which is limited to buying VPH items & kitchen items has been excellent. One time I had a broken glass piece - called Q within a week had replacement (was told to dispose of glass no return process).

I've always been pleased & just recently saved $13.00 on 1 item ...love "as is"!

Yes & for me it's worked out well. Recently ordered 2 pairs of Clark's at over half off & in perfect condition, Christmas decor, battery candles, jewerly, throws & a few clothing items. One time an item did arrive damaged but I wanted to fix it so called CS explained the situation & they gave me a generous refund. It's worth a try & if it's not in good condition call to get a return shipping refund. Good Luck.

I have ordered only holiday decor items from "as is" and they have all been perfect. For these types of items I much prefer getting them for a lower price. And if they are dmaged you can still get a full refund.

Good to see so many of you have had good luck with As Is. It's just not for me personally.

I've ordered a lot of As Is items, mostly clothes and shoes, and have never had a problem. Most items still have tags and do not appear used at all. The savings are definitely worth it.

@Dar321 Everything I have bought "as is" has been like new. I don't buy clothes, so that may be a different story.

@Dar321

Boots, Carole Hochman, Valerie (ceramic sculpted urns)... many others.

All were received in perfect condition.

I've purchased too many as items to list. Mainly clothes and decor. I've received a few clothing items in the wrong color, size or item. It's all appeared in new condition. Have had issues with decor here and there. I seem to go in spurts. A couple returns for things not working or broken, then I have a stretch with no issues. I mark them defective and usually try again. As long as it's costing me nothing to buy and return, I'll keep buying.

I am an AS IS addict. No problem here. Never had any issues. And the prices are way better. I just lay in wait if I see something I like and when it appears I pounce. I will add it is usually clothing.

I have wondered why QVC even posts that warning about "As Is" products because all of mine have been in perfect condition. My "as Is" bag just came and it is absolutely perfect with quite a saving. Only problem, you may not have as many choices of color as you do with the regular priced items.

I have no problem buying 'As Is' products. Only once did I return an item because it was very damaged and unusable. I can't believe they actually had it for sale. The Q refunded me 100%, even the return shipping wasn't charged to me for that item. Today I bought two As Is slip covers. They are a great price and I couldn't resist.

I’ve ordered several As Is items and they’ve all been fine. None have been dirty or torn. A couple have had a light petroleum odor which dissipated once I washed the item or hung it up for a couple of days. I don’t go out of my way to shop for As Is items, but I don’t hesitate to order them if they’re available.

Thanks everyone for your help. I just ordered my first as is, in decor. Fingers crossed!

I have ordered a few As Is items and have been pleased, except for shoes I ordered one time. It also seems the more expensive the item the better luck you will have that the item is in like new condition. The shoes I received and returned should have never been sold AS IS.
