I haven't bought anything from the Q in ages and ages. They used to have a return postage label included in the packing slip. I think it was much cheaper than going to the USPS and mailing it yourself without the label. Don't they do that any longer?


I don't know about the return postage label but if you search through the paperwork (QVC deliberately doesn't make it easy to find) you can find the return mailing address. Once you've found it you can just jot it down and save it and you'll never have to through all the hassle again.

The return label is right on your order information receipt. If you cannot find it you can print one. The information is right on you order status. I have never found that QVC includes a lot of paperwork.

I have also never found it cheaper to return an item using my own label. If an item is valuable enough for me to return, as opposed to donating, I insure the item as I've had an item or two lost in transit.

can't have it both ways. Everybody complained about the high cost of S&H here (rightfully so..) so they lowered it..and now won't refund the original shipping...WHY SHOULD THEY? Unless a item is defective ..why should they return your shipping on a item you tried and didn't want. Nobody else does that.

I don't get the mentality that they should refund the shipping? It was nice while it lasted but it is costly..

Just like the extended return policy for the holidays. Eventually they will do something with that due to all of the abuses. I have read people using holiday decorations and returning them the following month...etc. You abuse something you will eventually lose it.

If I order something from somewhere and change my mind, do not like it..etc..for any other reason than defective..why would I expect the company to pay me back for my shipping? Iti s on me!

In additon this new S&H Policy has been emailed, posted, advertised all over..

I agree!

Yes, it was a pre adhesive label that was part of the receipt and there was a place to check why you were returning it on the same receipt.

It's still the same. On the one piece of paper that came with a blouse I received last week, one side was the receipt and prepaid return label, and the other side was the return/exchange information including the return mailing address.
