Getting Ready for Free Shipping

coffee drinker — Sat, 07 Sep 2019 01:45:54 GMT

I've had an item on my "wish list" for a couple months. Since then the price has increased about $6. My gut is telling me QVC is going to have a free shipping day. I'll pass and order from Amazon-- lower price by $5, (original price) no shipping charges and probably quicker delivery .

Coffedrinker, QVC is driving away their loyal customer base. I have not purchased from them since May. I have shopped online at HSN, Macy's and Goat Milk Stuff. All have better prices, better shipping costs and faster shipping and better service.

Guess I was right -- today is free shipping and easy pay on everything. Why does QVC increase prices on items when they have a free shipping day. It's just not right.

@tipsy$16, that's a boat-load of an increase. They must think we're stupid. Sorry for being so blunt!!!

I checked the price on something I ordered 2 days ago (still processing) and the price increased by $3. Free shipping? Not really.

I checked more of my purchased items to compare and some went up in price, others did not. There were some I did not check because they were TSV when I purchased or at reduced pricing that was expiring. They were going to go up anyway.

I did purchase GILI sneaker slides that are Lunchtime Specials today. I’ve had them on my Wish List for a long time & this is the lowest I have seen them. I got the Spatter Denim color. The shipping charges disappear when you add them to your cart. I also ordered through ibotta for 7.5% cash back.

Im going to make a point of noting the prices on my Wish List items before the next free shipping day so I know if the regular price has gone up.

I'm thinking when we QVC shoppers put something in our Wish List, Q tracks that and if there's a lot of people with that item in their WS, they raise the price to cover the so called free shipping.

Everything in the computer world is tracked, including our Wish Lists, all at the touch of a computer key.

If you all are so unhappy with shopping here, why do you? I already moved on. There are so many other shopping websites that always offer free s&h, there and back. I learned years ago to make shopping on-line a happy thing to do.
