Is Q Trying To Turn Us Into April Fools?

Marp2 — Tue, 01 Apr 2014 14:58:36 GMT

I hope QVC is playing an April Fools joke on everyone with their not posting S&H charges with items. I looked at several this morning and no S&H was listed.

No way am I going to put an item in my basket to check the S&H, nor am I going to buy anything without knowing in advance how much the S&H will be. Actually, once I do know what the S&H will be more often than not I don't order but look elsewhere for the item.

Could it be a glitch since the shipping promotion ended today?

Sounds like they did a little ""maintenance"" again.

It's not a joke. There's free s/h today. I just placed an order and did not get charged s/h.

Things in my cart show S&H.

Why not? It's easy enough to delete.

That's what others said in another thread. I think it must be a random thing. I placed an order and on the order summary it said FREE S/H. I've had this item in my Wish List for months and it never showed free s/h before. I thought it was across the board, but apparently not.

Like those tv commercials - you find out the s/h or pr/h is $$

No, there isn't any shipping listed. The whole order process is so unbelievably messed up right now. Couldn't edit an order I just placed due to sizing. Then couldn't cancel it even though it was 2 hours later. Items in process forever and then showing up the next day. I ordered the TSV yesterday and the price today was $9 higher. Usually the TSV price is a few dollars higher not $9 on a $35 item.

the LAST time they did something like this ("hide" the shipping fees from the item page) they raised the SandH charges.....pick a few things, make note of the current shipping fees and when the SandH charges show up again, compare notes.

Great idea. I have a feeling they are raising prices on everything and will offer the $3-5 shipping again. But something is in the works and you know it won't benefit the customer.

I think QVC (since they brag they're the #1 shopping network) should join other on line retailers, free s/h on a particular amount.
