prices sky high!

Fifweg — Tue, 08 Mar 2022 00:02:59 GMT

Is it just me or have the clothing prices on QVC skyrocketed? I realize everything everywhere has gone up in price but, seriously, it seems items have almost doubled in price on the Q. $40 for a t-shirt? I can shop at Macy's and Kohls and buy quality items for so much less. I know, I have the option not to purchase, and I haven't been, not on QVC. Anyone agree or disagree?

I prefer the quality of the items and convenience of shopping at QVC. Prices on everything everywhere are soaring but nowhere have I seen them doubled.

@Fifweg I agree with you that the prices have become higher. I still enjoy watching. On Saturday night I saw some Belle by Kim Gravel tops that I liked. With tax and shipping everything seemed to be close to 50 dollars or a little over.

I will be looking at T.J. Maxx and Marshals now for clothes or order from the ebay seller that sells Qvc clothes.

While I still purchase certain items from the Q, I agree about the prices being high. When I see how much a tee shirt costs I cringe. Fortunately I do not need much in the clothes dept. and I rather shop and support the stores in my area. I am happy I have shopping choices.

It depends, I have found many places to shop online and I have the time to do comparisons. I will not overpay for clothing I don't need. Sometimes the Q has just what I want, recently I found a gray leather bag ( A376678 ). that was just what I was looking for. It was on clearance and free shipping. However,

I shop all over from Nordstrom's to Old Navy, you can get good deals , just check your emails.

@Fifweg I don't really care for Macy's brands (all mine have been donated so I no longer have any and don't want more) and do not shop at Kohl's or Old Navy (quality of fabrics). I like my four favorite brands at QVC and will stick with that. Yes, prices are rising but the reasons for that are not the fault of QVC. I will just be more selective of what I buy and buy a little less. But I need to buy less anyway as I have too much.

I no longer need to buy office appropriate clothes or "dress up" clothes and I don't consider $40 for a quality tee shirt ecessive.

I enjoy watching presentations of my favorite brands and since I have plenty no need for me to look around everywhere and price compare, as I'm just buying what I truly want and will let the rest go.

Yes, prices are up everywhere and on almost everything. I'm only purchasing what I absolutely need and check around for the best prices.

Q is usually not included in that search.

I almost bought a Kim Gravel top recently. It was cute but after thinking about the price, I backed out. It was a little high for what it was and I didn't desperately need it.

I'm glad I didn't buy it.

Well, stick around. I don't doubt that they will and check out the gasoline prices. Anyway, that idea of getting rid of credit card junk mail that you posted worked nicely. Thank you. I have no idea why I did not think of it myself. LOL!
