Re: Borghese - June TTV, launches at 10p ET June 14th

I have to say that Evine's spoiled this TTV for me.  First, I received the GWP packaged separately several days ago.Woman Surprised 

 

I have called CS twice on two separate days...was told my order was shipping out on both days, and my order JUST shipped this afternoon, 6/23!  I ordered on the 14th.

 

I realize their new management is struggling to right the ship, but I had to mention to the last CS rep I spoke to that shipping free items separately from the main item (with a price tag) probably isn't going in the right direction.

@Gokat - that's just, well f#*%*$ Woman Surprised

 

No wonder they are 'struggling' financially! It must be the same 'brilliant' exec that determines the cuckoo shipping rate structure that is now packing the cartons Woman LOL 

 

I haven't shopped much at Evine recently, but just placed an order for the TTV maxi dress 2 days ago. Guess I shouldn't plan to wear it before Thanksgiving. Woman Tongue

 

Seriously, while it's nice to have all the new Evine beauty & fashion brands as an option, do you wonder if it's been a bit too aggressive?  I don't think it's hurt D or Manuela from a customer base or market share, but maybe it did squeeze them on pricing/profit so Evine could 'invest' in the new brands. And, are these the same exec's that 'forced' D & Manuela to change formulas or bring on new stuff more aggressively? Both product lines are core to Evine.

 

Hope you get your Borghese TTV order soon. Let me know what you think of that GWP body mist

I still have not gotten my hair mask set. Some of my Skinn stuff still has not shipped either.

 

I will say everything I have ever gotten from the Q always comes quickly.

Lol, @Chi-town girl ! Yes...a maxi for Thanksgiving is always nice! Woman LOLWoman LOL

 

I don't want to pick on a company when it's down, but I've been a customer since ValueVision days and have watched from the sidelines as they just can't seem to get it right.  As I've said before here on the forums.  I truly feel that the rise in gold prices did them in as their main market niche WAS in jewelry, raw gemstones, and watches prior. 

 

They've rolled over another CEO-type since the one who decided to back financially and push for new formulations.  That one better never set foot in MY path!!!Woman LOL  Grumble, grumble.  I know it's impacted Dimitri's bottom line.  TTV's no longer sell out, item stock has been lowered, and IMO the quality has suffered.  AND Evine's STILL tripping all over themselves.  Such a shame.

 

Not to change the subject and go too far off topic, but I've been eyeing up that Halston upcoming TSV top here at the Q.  I like it, but not the colors, don't need it, but may just go for the white/cream(whatever) cause it's so cute!  BTW, thanks for those measurements!  You're a doll for all the effort!Woman Wink 

 

PS... I'll let you know about the mist. I haven't opened it yet.  Mists are the LAST thing I need here.  I've got Skinn mists out the YING YANG!  Woman LOL

I was hoping someone would come along and help me feel better, @ChrissyKR !Woman WinkHeart

 

Kindred spirits, we are...and shall enjoy our goodies all the more when they (if they ever) get here!Woman LOL

 

I'm kinda used to Pony Express service here as my location seems to bring up the rear with ship-outs, but this one takes the cake!  Guess I'll just continue on with me Skinn scrubs in the meantime.  Sigh.Woman Wink

@Gokat - I'm a fairly recent shopnbc/evine customer. You make some very valid points. I hope they can get a solid mgmt team in place,  leadership that can right the ship.

 

I'm sure it's stressful for D, Manuela and other long term vendors that are customer oriented. My excellent experience with the products is why I'm 'loyal'. The television presentations are valuable to me for product selection & regime. Along with this forum group, it's been amazing for me Heart 

 

Re: the Halston TSV, you're welcome! I really like that line and I want that top, just need to decide on color. Everything I've ordered so far has been a winner/keeper.

 

Time to do some Anniversary party planning for D. He will be thrilled to meet his newest Dazzlers Heart He needs to know that we Heart him as I'm sure UPS does for their bump in July revenue Woman LOL

Just got mine and they are "huge"!  I Love it! 

Just wanted to mention that the "hydration spray" was wrapped in with the brown paper,so you need to dig around to find it! It could be over looked for sure.

Very happy! Woman Happy

I didn't realize Evine was having problems. What source did you find this out. I've been shopping with this station since Value Vision days too. The only thing I don't like is their shipping costs, especially when you purchase several items.
