Return charges

gaga — Fri, 25 Apr 2025 16:30:30 GMT

Why is QVC charging more than S&H for returned products? I was charged $10.45 to return a top thay was only $3.50 to send to me originally?

@gaga. 2hen you return something you're charge the original $3.50 shipping fee plus postage for the return, usually $6.95 for clothing. It's been that way for years and is described on the website.

For that price it would have been cheaper to keep the top?

I just ordered 2 large 90 ct boxes of lawn bags, plus a big box of TGI Friday potato skins from Sam's. Have been wanting some of these for a long time.

Shipping on all that was only $8.31.

@gaga

IF you used their return label, that is correct.

Lose original shipping charge $3.50, lose the return label fee $6.95 = $10.45 loss..

IF you paid for your own return, then contact CS but you still lose the original shipping.

As mentioned, it has indeed been this policy for years now.

@Nightowlz. All the large shippers get preferential shipping rates. If you took it to the post office to mail, it would probably be double.

@Mz iMac As a Prime Member I always factor in my annual fee to justify ZERO return fees from Amazon.

QVC has been doing this as long as I can remember. It's definitely not new.
Amazon makes a fortune off of prime members, so it won't happen there unless their popularity drops significantly.

@pdlinda @Mz iMac

With Prime Membership we also get Prime Streaming TV. Without Prime membership Prime streaming is $8.99 or $107.88 per year. Most of the membership fee?

I know I will get no ❤️ for my opinion. But I always have looked at it like this..... how much gas would it take for me to drive to Florence SC. Then I would need to book a hotel room for the night because I would be tired of the drive. Include a stop at a drive thru for something to eat there and back. Plus, of course, my precious time lost.

I think $10.45 is a pretty sweet deal 😉. JMHO

Generally, if we cannot return an item or it is a little $$,we just keep the item and donate it. Amazon is so easy w/returns. UPS is 2 miles away.
