PRICES FOR EVERYTHING

dmeasy — Sun, 05 Mar 2023 20:08:10 GMT

I am priced out. I refuse to pay these high prices for same items that a year ago were lower in price. So I rarely watch anymore. It is a different QVC than ever before. These clothing brands that are portrayed lately are not worth the money. VALUE and Quality is not there anymore. I will buy locally and then won't have the cost of returning.

I don't see anything that is unreasonable compared to retail , unless you are comparing it to Walmart or discount stores. Of course some high end hanbags or shoes is another story.

I have seen very little on QVC that is not overpriced. When you get tired of the high price and very low quality of the clothing, watch one of the food shows. You can get 12 pieces of chicken for $80.00 or 8 pieces of salmon for about $200.00 or even a beef roast for $300.00. I don't know who is buying this stuff but the prices are way too high and the quality is just not there. No wonder they are chopping seasoned hosts nd keeping the ones who get paid less. Whoever is running this company has no idea what they are doing. It is pitiful. They really could have something good but they are greedy beyond a fault.

I agree! QVC prices are way too high. There are 2 Susan Graver tops I like, but with shipping they would cost $70 each. Thats ridiculous for a polyester top!!

Prices are up everywhere, and I also shop my closet. Unless there is a huge sale.

I finally found a shirt that I liked and it was $90 here and it wasn't anything particularly special. I'm shopping from my closet too.

@dmeasy I know of practically nothing that is the same price as it was a year ago. I find QVC prices are comparable with other similar stores. Much the same as Coldwater Creek and the shipping is much less, quality about the same, styles simila

Since I work at home and rarely go out, I haven't had to buy new clothes for a while. I'm bored by all the fashion shows. I want kitchen-household items. No clothes or makeup (love make up shows, but there again, I have enough that I rarely use as it is). Give me small kitchen appliances, storage, Homeworx, decorative items. Lately I haven't watched too many home shopping shows. I keep checking though.

I bought the tsv salmon , it is much less than my regular meal delivery and better quality.

Well, since I just bought a D & Co lunchtime special blouse for only $10.00 (!!), I cannot complain.

I have always said if you buy something when it first comes out, you pay the highest price.

For me, QVC has always had tremendous value and quality, especially compared to department stores, where I frequently shop for work or dressy clothes. My Q wardrobe has mainly been about comfortable, casual clothes.

I have always enjoyed seeking out sales, so I also like to wait for the changes of seasons, when clothes prices really drop.

The denim Bermuda shorts are certainly selling out today!

There are bargains to be had on clothing in many stores and on many web sites. Just takes some work and a bit of hunting to find them.

Right, I really haven't had any issues finding affordable clothing for the most part. I'm always able to find discounts and free shipping pretty readily on other websites.

Every spring I buy a few Pima tops from Chicos when they are on sale. They are $27 and free shipping. I have some of them that are 8 years old and still wear them. Since retiring, I just don't need that many clothes. In our climate, the cotton is much cooler than poly or rayon.
