What drives you to watch QVC? The Hosts or the Products? Do you ever skip shows because the Host may not be one of your favorites even if the Product they’re showing might be? Just curious.

I no longer watch QVC except for a handful of clothing shows and only when certain hosts are working.

Products, and mostly clothing, although I rarely watch any longer.  I like Courtney K so I will try to catch one of her shows occasionally.

I don’t really watch. I check out items online. I do not watch “shows.” I watch a presentation when I know something I am interested in buying will be on. I do not watch for entertainment or because a host or vendor is nice. It is shopping. The goal is to separate my from my money. If I am not going to buy the product, I’m gone. Quickly.

 

Again, it is shopping, not entertainment. These are hardcore sales people. Not my friends. If I want or need what they are selling I will tune in for a few minutes. When they move on to something I’m not interested in, I stop watching.

Just a product . I respect all hosts, they doing their job and doing well since working many years(employer ok with their job). But to buy or not to buy just my decision and don't depend how product was presented.

 

i have my own criteria and if products meet one I am buying. It can be the best presentation by the best host but if not  ( again) meet my criteria I don't buy.

I rarely watch anymore.  I can easily check online and read the reviews.  There are certain brands that I like.  Unfortunately,  some of the hosts are just way over the top.  I don't watch TV to be yelled st, lied to, or to hear how great someone is or what they own.  Selling the products should be describing it in detail, dimensions, warranties if applicable, etc.  Details and price;  not what is in trend, what the host or family owns, etc.

 

Sorry, years ago, the shows were much more entertaining.   Kathy Levine and Joan were selling and entertaining viewers at the same time.  Very enjoyable.
