HSN Here I COME!

Bellajay — Mon, 09 Sep 2024 10:08:09 GMT

Finally decided that for me...I will return to HSN veiwing, not leaving QVC, but just need to watch more refined Hosts and not the constant "tugging" going on. Tugging of clothes that do not fit, it is distacting and two much talking about their life and loud laughing, that seems out of place for what they are selling.

I have just had enough of the hosts, and I know you know who I mean, and if not, really this is just about what I am going to do.

Thankfully I have cut down on veiwing and buying items, as most of the items I have had to return, oh well it is just my thoughts and do not want to ruffle anyone. We all are grown and can make our own choices, but QVC is not working for me.

Have a good day everyone.

Qurate thanks you for your loyalty.

It's all revenue for them, regardless of the point of sale.

You won’t be disappointed. The hosts are so much better at HSN. None of the crass, crude behavior. No over the top, obnoxiousness. The hosts are more professional at HSN. They have fun, but not in an immature stupid way as at qvc. The give the pertinent info up front. So much better there than here.

I dont post here often..but I must reply to you. Thank you for pointing out my exact feeling of how I feel. She always pulling at her clothing and very distracting. The nicknames of the models, her HONEY and when she and ... are together its a mess. Glad they are not doing Shoe Shopping together.

OK I am done..Will probably get bashed but its a forum for free talk.

@Bellajay

good plan since you state you are returning most

hsn is owned by same company so shopping either is a win win for them

happy shopping!

@Bellajay,

I do watch HSN and enjoy the vibe of the hosts there. I find Beekman on quite a bit, as well as Korres and Perlier products. I don't buy clothing and such from them, as I do not from QVC. I purchase many of Andrew Lessman's products and always look for his sales. They are manufactured in the USA to very high standards. We have been pleased with the results. Both of us have M.D.in our families, have been on his eye vitamins for years (our doctor approved), and are in our 80s with no sign of this disease.

While he has his own website, he cannot flood the market with his products because he has just one factory in Arizona.

I will add I particularly enjoy the Perlier family when they are on, Skip and Amanda from Italy. Love their products!

I love HSN and I watch and shop from both channels, have been for many years. I do enjoy HSN a bit more and find they offer more coupons and free shipping than the Q does. I like the products they have and they still do price adjustments!

CoffeeNut — Mon, 09 Sep 2024 12:52:26 GMT

I do agree that the HSN hosts are far less hectic than QVC.

I also find more benefits shopping at HSN. The hosts are professional and give information about the product. They have more coupons and discounts and much more free shipping. I also love that they still do price adjustments no matter if it was a sale, clearance or whatever.

Does HSN have forums? If so, I'm assuming we will be losing some members here.

Just a thought for some folks to consider.

Just because some people (including me) are critical of QVC for some issues, mainly the behavior of certain hosts - not all, does not mean anyone is rooting for QVC to fail! On the contrary, nothing would please many of us more than for host behavior to live up to previous standards.

As much as I do much business with Amazon, living in a more remote suburb, nothing can compare with TV shopping. The downward trend of revenue from both QVC and HSN is disturbing to me, and I am sure others. If there are many complaints about certain hosts' behaviors, one would hope that there would be some action taken. I hate to see ANY

business fail.

I hope this clarifies some issues for some!

I guess I don't see why someone who is simply stating her OPINION needs to recieve a sarcastic reply. This is the kind of thing we have had so much of lately... be nice.

I go back and forth between QVC and HSN. I find that the hosts on the Q are much better at actually describing the few items I am intrested in--except for the number of hours and hours they devote to the TSV's. However, there are only a few hosts that I can watch-- and more I never will watch. HSN's hosts do ok in the description part--nothing great as I usually have to research the items I am thinking about--they tend to not go into detail much. I don't shop much at either of them anymore---can find the same things elsewhere for better prices and free shipping/returns--as well as getting the items to me faster.

@Tori3569 HSN has a community, but it is a ghost town. You can only post on HSN hosts or merchandise, and no one frequents it.

I never get any cash or coupon offers over there.

Spend money there, too. Think one time.

The HSN Forum is a mere shadow of what it was in its heyday. Days and days and days of nothing.

However, you can access the Forum from the HSN app, which differentiates it from QVC!

(And I receive a 20% off coupon at least monthly!)

I'm not an avid shopper with either HSN or QVC, when I do tune in from time to time to see what's on-air, I have noticed that the hosts on HSN do not have all that silliness and no-nonsense chit chat about their family life and keep it professional.
