HSN Waitlist Advice

Ainhisg · ‎03-09-2010

There is an article of clothing I want from HSN, and it is currently on waitlist in my size/color. If I purchase it, is there a chance it will be fulfilled? I'm pretty good at stalking the website, so I would likely see it if it became available again. The reason I'm asking is that I've read on here that sometimes, QVC waitlist items aren't fulfilled even though the item shows back up on the website. Would I be better off to be a stalker...lol...or go ahead and order it on waitlist? TIA!

I always buy the item on Waitlist; I can't think of 1 time it wasn't fulfilled at HSN.

QVC usually fulfills, but there have been a few times it was cancelled. I've had MORE issues with QVC cancelling autoships and items on pre-sale NOT being fulfilled than anything else.

I have used their website a few times for waitlist and I did get the items. One was a necklace that I really wanted and it did come.

Wait list it. In my experience, a WL item usually shows up, & quickly. What is there to lose? If you see that some stock has appeared on line, buy it & cancel WL.

Can't answer your specific question but when items in my "favorites" list are back in stock, I get a notice from HSN.

If the item comes back in stock within a specific period of time, for both QVC and HSN, you will receive the item. If not, they will email you and let you know they are sorry they could not fulfill the order. I had equal success with both sites. I've never had an item on waitlist then get notified they could not fulfill my order, yet, have the item in stock. Never. Perhaps after the 45 days the item returned but QVC and HSN do not give you the option to extend the waitlist time. Purchase on waitlist because you can cancel at any time should you change your mind.

@Ainhisg You probably have at least a 50/50 chance. I've had 2 items both TS shoes that I never got, this year. On the other hand I had a waitlisted item over this past weekend that shipped in 24 hours.

Just about everything i have waitlisted on hsn i got, most came super quick. the only exception was jewelry item never restocked

OP here...everyone was right! Thank you! It went to packaging yesterday and shipped today. I got to use my 20% coupon by ordering earlier this week, too. I won't be concerned about ordering waitlist items in the future. Thanks, again!
