$3.95 to me $6.95 to Return I'm Stopping Shopping...

Almost $11.00 for the privilege to try-on an item is no longer worth it to me.

 

SO many other sites give their cutomers free returns and other perks.

 

Do you feel the same way as I do?

No, because I figure the cost of the possible return into the total...if I think it's too expensive, I don't buy the item.

No.  I rather pay $11 then drive from store to store, looking for parking spots, walking through a large mall only to not find what I want.  I just click my mouse and I'm done.  A lot easier even if it costs me money.

Yes, definitely and that is why I only buy if I'm 99.9% sure of keeping the item and only if the price is under $30 so if I don't like it, I just donate it.  $11 is ridiculous.  So many sites with at least free shipping to receive the item. 

 

From what I read on these forums I can't imagine what some pay in shipping charges!!!

 

@Winkk   No need to go to any store.  All retailers have their own websites.

Nope.  I know the deal before I order so it's up to me to accept it or not. Nobody's twisting my arm.

Re: $3.95 to me $6.95 to Return I'm Stopping Shopping...

It does influence me, and now that PayPal no longer offers "Return Shipping on Us", I tend to only order clothing items from QVC that I'm fairly certain will fit and that I will like.

 

Other than that, I shop in store or with retailers who offer free shipping.  And I price compare, so it's the overall price I go by.

 

I stopped buying shoes from QVC years ago, when I ordered two pairs of Clark's sandals (that I had tried on at a Clark's store, so I knew the size).

 

When they arrived, they were so big that they must've been two sizes larger than what I ordered.  Even though I returned them as defective (or mismarked), I was charged for the return shipping for both.  (I realized there was a reason QVC had a better price - they must've been mass produced for the TSV, with no attention to quality.)

 

Those and a pair of Rykas that were so small (despite ordering my normal 7 1/2), that I ended up giving them to my sister-in-law who wore 5 1/2.  Better than wasting the return shipping on those.

 

Thankfully, I don't return much.

Unless I really want an item, I usually pass and go elsewhere.  I can't tell you how many times I've passed on shoes at qvc.  Too risky and very likely a return for me.

Exactly why I rarely order clothing or anything else unless I'm nearly certain that I will keep it.
