That recall was for a product that never made it to market. It was slated to be in a TSV, then the recall happened and it was never sold. Months later, the Face Butter was released and the FDA has had no issues with it. Some of the samples may have made it into previous orders, but not the jar.


Good to know, but how did you know?

 


I knew because this recall notice is from August and we were talking about it then. We wondered why the TSV said it contained a Face Cream in the InsideQ Magazine and then did NOT when it went live. That's when the recall notice came up. 


Thank you for the clarification.

There was a TSV in August or so that did have a product recalled. I believe QVC told people to throw it out and everyone had their TSV money refunded and kept the other products. I was considering getting that TSV and obviously wished I did. Live and Learn!

I knew it was pictured, but I didn't think any had even been pre-ordered. 

 

But now I want to know how many TSV preview items, on average, DO get pre-ordered? We know they can sell tens of thousands on the day of, so I wonder how many they sell with the limited audience preview?

The 2017 TSV should be fine.

This would have been a great notice if it wasn't so out dated.  Please take time to check the info before sounding an alarm.  This was taken care of by QVC 6 months ago.  Nothing current or new.
