Most of us noticed that when shipping and handling went down to $3, the price of the item increased by more than the decrease.

I don't like the prices going up either, but I think it's twofold: one is that as long as people continue purchasing Susan's items, QVC will continue raising the prices.

The second is that we have have inflation in this country and most people's incomes aren't keeping up. For example, if the cost of a Susan Graver top goes from $40 to $46, that's a 15% increase. Our household income sure-as-heck didn't increase 15% this year. I'm just going to be more selective about what and from where I make my purchases.

There's barely a top for Graver prices in lots of places. The good thing about Graver is it's better e r quality than much of even more expensive offerings. I'm far more likely to buy Susan than Kors for 10 to 15 more at me a st.

I don't mind paying the higher prices for Susan's clothing because the quality of everything I've purchased of hers is very good.

I am buying more with the lower S&H. SG pricing is comparable to Chicos and of similar quality. I like her clothes so well that it's worth the cost to me. There are some good buys if you watch clearance; I just got one.

I no longer purchase as much from Susan, or any vendors....when the prices are that high, I can purchase a similar item from a near-by mall, without the shipping prices.

The initial price of shipping isn't so bad, but when you have to return it, it doesn't pay.

According to Susan, she is bringing a better quality of garment to QVC. Perhaps that's her justification for higher prices?

Went to Steinhardt today. Nothing much I liked under $50 unless you count $49.95 as under. There were racks nd racks of clearance for less, but I know why that stuff was on clearance __ ugly awful and definitely for winter. It's 88 here today and we won't see 70 much before next Nov.

check out brick and mortar stores -- I've been finding great deals and great clothing esp. now they are already have lots of summer clearance racks of clothing (at least here in florida) and purchased a pair of orthaheel vionic tide flip flops (orig. $80) for $29.00 after coupons, etc.

a beautiful Maxine swimsuit that was originally $89.00 for $21. Loving going back to the brick and mortar stores.

I couldn't believe a t-shirt by SG was $40 after adding tax/s/h. Yikes!

The thing I enjoy about going into stores is that I can try on an armful of clothes and decide which ones I like best AND WHAT SIZE! Here now with the new s&h charges, each item is full price s&h even though they most often come in the same bag! Trying on clothes BEFORE purchasing also means I know they fit, I don't have to return anything, and I don't have to guess go up a size, stay true, etc. and pay return fees. I think by the Q raising soooooo many prices of soooooo many items, I feel taken advantage of and won't play their game. It has nothing to do with whether many people can or can't afford items on the Q but rather it's taking notice they have increased many prices of OLD items $30, $40, even $50+ for absolutely no reason other than people will pay it. So I say, that's fine but I don't like their games.

I agree! Susan's prices are too high and very seldom offered on easy pay. Infact, they should be a lot less since she is an in house designer. Most or all are made in China! Perhaps the Q needs to consider American made for Graver and other products. The higher prices would go down easier for the customer. I have been a faithful customer since the Q was CVN but am now rethinking my purchases. Sad!

High and not substantiated. One day her $30. blouses became $50. blouses. And just how is that?

Susans prices, along with two other designers on QVC have increased too much. I always loved her clothes, but I look at them and add in the s&h and know darn well my shopping is going to be local. We can get wonderful quality around here at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls. Time to get in the car and shop local again.

There's no question that one can fo much better at kohls, Macy's, etc. between sales and coupons, it's night and day. I am trying hard not to buy as much on the q. Too expensive with shipping charges both ways. They might have Q and C going for them but very little V anymore.

I agree that Susan Graver, Denim & Co., Quacker and others are more expensive than in the past. Have you checked out consignment stores? There is a high end consignment chain here called The Snooty Fox where I have found lots of SG, Quacker, Bob Mackie and Isaac! It's a good way to handle and feel the clothes of designers on QVC, without the cost of shipping/returns, etc... Have noticed that many of SG garments are sheer pieces without much to them, and were sold on the Q for $50+; at consignment shop they go for $15 and under. One day someone had just brought in 6 Isaac sweaters, 3 with Q tags still attached + 2 t-shirts, all in my size! I got them all for $65!!!

I have been meaning to comment on S.G. prices for a long time. I was happy to find out that others feel the same way. I guess I don't know who sets the prices of hers or any others' clothing, but hers seem to be really out of line. I can no longer afford to buy her clothes. I may find an article on EBAY or in a consignment store occasionally. I would encourage the powers that be to reassess the pricing structure of Susan Graver's line.

I have in the past purchased a bunch of Susan Graver but now that it's more expensive I have stopped buying. Her stuff lasts forever and I have enough. Yesterday I went to Macy's and got 7 tops for $75. Really cute tops too. What a great sale! Can't get buys like that on QVC.

Re: Pricing of Susan Graver

Dar321 — Sun, 10 May 2015 15:38:28 GMT

I love her tops, and George Simonton too. But, the prices have really been off the hook. I could go to Macy's, Dillards, Saks......and find the same prices. I cut way back on the clothes here. Used to even buy for gifts, but they've gone up too much. They need some good sales, and clearance prices, like HSn, and Evine have. Not all of us can spend $60 on a tee! Getting really ridiculous in my opinion.

I am so glad to see that other people noticed how the prices have gone up on QVC, especially Susan Graver. I stopped buying her products because of this. Also, I used to buy Quacker Factory, but her prices are getting too high. I don't think Jeanne Bice would be very happy about this. Angel should try to bring the prices down so all of us can afford them. The same goes for Denim and Company another favorite of mine. I'm pretty much buying locally now.
