They have a set number of GWP, that's the amount of products they should sell. OR stop saying GWP, the "while supplies last" is a cop out. I think you're all being too nice about this. I used the chat last week w/ QVC about this and asked for a complaint to be filed. No, it's not the end of the world, and yes it's for a good cause-- but I have other ways to donate to causes I care about. QVC needs to do better.

@LdyBugz We will have to agree to disagree here. I'm not convinced that they didn't know. Considering that they mention the free gift with purchase on the air ad nauseam, I believe that they were well aware that they were out of stock. This happens every year.

Pathetic if you ask me. Can't they do some simple accounting?
Just donate directly to Breast Cancer research, etc. and feel good about it.

Well, you all can debate on the dishonesty point. For me personally, I don't know the answer, will never really know and it's not worth all the drama, I got a couple of products at a good price, I helped a good cause, and I have a $10 credit. I really don't care about the gift. I don't even remember what was included in the gift! 😄

Totally agree with you. There's almost no way to continuously account for something like a gwp when sales are changing due to carts, check holds, cancellations, etc.
In my experience, gwp for sales that are not just one brand (ie Clinique) are usually put together by an outside marketing company, so who knows if they're the ones that overestimated the number they had.
Saying quantities are limited isn't a cop out, it's a legal requirement and a true statement. Personally I'd rather have the $10 credit than the gift I received.

I only watched about 20 minutes of the show. The host must have said 10 times "everyone will get a beauty box. It's retail value is $X". The box was definitely a perk she was pushing. I thought "wow, they are going to make good on what they failed to do in previous years"
Guess not
Giving a $10 credit is decent but you still have to (over) spend to get it

10.00 instead of the 182.00 gift purchase - no comparison WSE!
Oh buy the way I asked for a credit when I called customer service and they said there was no way they would give a credit in any amount. Keep it up qvc.

I didn't watch the show. What was the gift offered?
