HSN Raises Prices

Shelbelle — Wed, 30 Jun 2021 14:02:25 GMT

I have a few fashion items in my Watch list, all have gone up this week by a dollar or 2, even ones on clearance. Not much, but the increase was noticeable.

Given our current challenges, this is to be expected. Inflation is fact now...prices are rising. QVC and HSN is just a reflection of what is happening in our country.

I have a DMQ ring in my wish list that was on sale for $29.95 and has gone up by $10. That was the biggest increase. I don't have many things on my wish list anymore, but most items went up.

So maybe that's a signal a free shipping day is on the cards.

Since they are owned by the same company, I'm not,surprised. I am shocked that they had the nerve to raise their prices, instead of giving their customers a break and offering clearance, sales, and lower prices. They already charged too much for shipping, and a ridiculous price for sending an item back. I will not buy another thing unless I cannot find it anywhere, and I mean anywhere else. This is unless they lower their prices, or offer free shipping. I called his price gouging.

I don't see how they can raise prices on items that they already had in inventory that was purchased at a prior lower cost from the vendor. I know there is a high mark up rate on all retail items.

Nothing raises the hair on my neck more than Nordstrom sales. If an item goes on sale, it's maked back up afterwards. Once an item is on clearance or on sale it should stand.

@Effie54 It's about what is happening to the country. Not just QVC or HSN. We are going to ohave staggering price rises and inflation. It's coming.

You can look back historically and see how it has happened at times. It's economics and how the economy is handled.

@skatting44what's that you say? "They" can do what they want. LOL. Stick it to you and nickle and dime you even though they got a tax cut. That's not enough for them.

As an avid Nordstrom shopper @Shanus you need to go to Nordstrom's Rack to find markdowns that remain. I suspect they may be returns.

Finally, when they want to clear inventory (for real) they actually don't mark items back up.

I checked my "favorites" at HSN and yes, some of them have gone up in price which makes no sense to me. If it didn't sell at $25 why would it sell at $27.50??? But as someone mentioned, maybe a free shipping day is coming????

Sounds about right. I have noticed that most of my QVC wish list items have increased in price in the last few days. Not substantial, a dollar here, two dollars there, not enough to make me delete them yet. To be expected I guess.

QVC has been doing this with prices for years, I have read posts about it on these forums for years. HSN usually has better deals. But some posters here can't resist putting their political slant onto everything.

Lots of bargains to be had elsewhere. Perhaps sales are down at QVC and HSN because people are going back to stores now.

I agree but I have a friend that works in a furniture store...furniture is already over priced, in my opinion, but when things go up in price, they go thru the store and increase prices on everthing that has been sitting on the floor for months, if not longer.
