Birkenstock Online Petition

QVC bring back Birkenstocks.

Real Birkenstocks....not all the offshot designs and names in the brand.....real, original, basic Birkis.

Yes, I know I can get them elsewhere, but for some reason they don't fit me the same and the Easy Pays always helped with my budget.

Anyone else on board?

No, I find them cheaper and still brand new from Ebay sellers.

I AM on board!! The Birkenstocks that are available "in so many other places" do not come close to the styles and colors that QVC carried.

No. I don't buy much from QVC because everything is over-priced with high shipping & a bad return policy. I'd rather see Birks available elsewhere. ...and they are!

I disagree. If I see a pair I like on QVC, I can usually - not always but usually - find it on Ebay for cheaper and still brand new.

i can also usually find them cheaper via other shopping sites or in stores.

if you are interested and on facebook, you may want to contact RICK TOSH who represented birkenstocks on qvc for a while. he is still working with the company. he is a "strategic accounts merchandiser."

I would love to see Birkenstock on QVC again. They had mule type shoes that stayed on my feet and were so comfortable. I love the gizeh sandals. I have not had good experiences with Amazon -ebay, and I sure don't want to get shoes from sellers who claim the shoes are new and get used shoes.

Yay Birkenstock shoes, miss them.

That had not happened to me purchasing new Birks on Ebay. That has, however, happened to me with QVC items (not Birks).

COUNT ME IN DOUBLE I came on this board this morning to ask if anyone knew why the Q has so little Birkis. I have severel pair all purchased over the last 5-7 years. The pair I wear as my slippers really needs to be replaced so I checked the Q this morning and was SHOCKED at the small amount offered.

I know I can find them other places but the styles I have are just so different and great.

I do not do EBAY or other sites although I do order from Amazon so I guess I will check there.

PLEASE QVC bring back Birkenstock. Some of us still need to wear them for comfort as well as good support for bad feet.

If you don't want to buy them through eBay, HSN sells quite a selection.

Oohh there's an HSN outlet store in Largo, and in one other place I think. I've been to the Largo one many times.

I've never been to the one in Largo but I often go to the one in Brandon. There is one more Outlet in the area, too. I keep wondering if they all have the same things or if it would be worth my time to check the other ones out.

I'm pretty sure the sandals they sell on HSN are not the real Birkenstock made in Germany, they are made in China if I'm not mistaken.

the birkenstocks that hsn carries are the real thing.....but they only have 4 items in stock.

I prefer the Papillio and Birkis line. They are made in Germany. The regular, original Birkenstock line runs smaller and narrower. I find them to also be less fashionable. (Not that "fashionable" really applies to any of them. )

Yes, I'm 100% in!!!!

I have been complaining about this for years. Birks are basically all I wear in the Summer, and QVC had the best selection. I've looked, but have not found that selection elsewhere.

Enough with the Vionics already...........
