I often laugh out loud at "reviews" that I read anywhere. About half the people who write them use about the same finesse as the reviewer quoted here. The 33 people who were helped by this review appear to comprehend subjective and meaningless discourse as it is provided. Yes, communication skills are in a descending pattern.

Guess now we know what crowd shops at QVC ;-) Thank you for your comment. Greatly appreciated. I thought I was going crazy or something....

Well at least it tells you the shoe has no support. She also didn't like the color - altho it's not clear if the color was other than presented or she just didn't like it.

That's better than the reviews that simply say they love the item with no other information.

Those kind of reviews make me crazy. I don't see many that actually give me any real info. I do try to pass along all the info I can when I review an item.

She did NOT see those shoes in person because it was a brand new product, so she cannot make those statement! ALSO, who cares she didn't like the color???? It's a personal preference!!! And the shoes come in 6 colors!

When I take the time to write a review I try to focus on the things I would like to know if I were planning to buy the product. The quality, the sizing, and how it feels or looks in real life. I also try to evaluate if the item is worth the price they are charging for it. Any of the other garbage they include in those reviews is useless to me.

When i read these reviews I just shake my head. I am convinced that some people just like to diss a brand and have not even bought the product. QVC's reviews are a joke.

Reviews should not be allowed unless you have actually purchased the item.

I couldn't care less whether a review is "helpful" or not, and I ignore it completely. All this tells me is they are trying to train the reviewers to fall into a certain pattern.

There are crazies putting reviews on now. I guess they have some grievance from the past, or maybe they just want their 15 minutes of review fame. LOL. It used to be they just posted on various forums (not just QVC), but now they have found an outlet in reviews. I do find some reviews very helpful and appreciate them. Especially if several people have the same issue with a product that is meaningful to me.

My next comment doesn't involve "crazies", but really just saying something is wonderful and fits perfectly isn't helpful. I like to know if it fits same as your regular size, what size you take (because I think sometimes there are issues between the very large sizes and the smaller sizes), what color you purchased and is it the same as it appears on the video, what the material is like, etc.
