FREEDOM OF SPEECH OUT THE WINDOW, EVEN AT QVC, WHY HAVE THE BLOG AND ASK FOR REVIEWS?????????????????????????????????/

@tropics21.  What are you talking about?

That’s really a shame, since I rely heavily on reviews before I buy something...there is a top I was wanting to buy but almost every review says it runs too big or too small....so I just decided to forget it...and save return postage.

My big complaint is why they let someone post a scathing review that hasn't even purchased the product? 

I saw one review by "Anonymous" , who did not purchase the product but said the product she was reviewing smelled like armpits.

Another, posted two days later by "Anonymous" again, who also did not purchase the product who said the product smelled like cat pee. 

I wonder about this kind of review and why on earth would the QVC monitors allow them.  To me, it was apparent that someone was very deliberate in their attempt to sabatoge a product.

I agree. I rely heavily on reviews before ordering something ...sometimes a review sounds totally negative but the reasons why don’t make sense...so I just ignore reviews like this.

I too rely heavily on reviews.  I have now learned, when reading a particularly scathing review, to check and see if the person leaving the review actually purchased the product.  

I think it is very poor business on the part of QVC to allow such reviews by someone who has nothing constructive, be it a pro or a con and hasn't even purchased the product.

I have had a few one star reviews posted.  I was pretty objective, not angry.  That said, I think when a product is really bad, and they have all, or many bad reviews....they pick n choose the bad ones to post. Just my opinion.  I have had reviews posted next day, and sometimes weeks later.  Maybe it has to do with who is doing them. ?

I submitted a 2-star review recently and it’s been posted.

posted a 5star review over a week ago and it hasn’t been posted.

Update, still not posted and i had purchased two of the item.  How dumb is that?  Someone ain’t thinking.

They published many 5 star reviews for David's latest cookbook,

before it was even mailed.

The reviews were purely speculation.
