I don't watch much QVC at all. I watched when they first came to television over 30 years ago when they weren't QVC they were QVN.

You live long enough and you hear enough lies. The sales folks are just pushing items as they make their living off doing so. Beauty lies, item lies. It's all just about you wanting to believe the hype. Eventually, folks learn.

I have certain shows I watch on a regular basis...... Once in a while I will watch the linen shows. But there are some times I wonder where they get some of their vendors from. Guess it is where the money is as to what they pick and chose for folks that are interested in certain things to attract their attention. There is no way everyone can be pleased with their shows.

I frequently check the Tivo guide and the 'recently aired' but I really only watch maybe 2-3 times a week, if that.

I do still have several AD items and order an item here and there. I might order two or three things in a month, then nothing (other than my ADs) for a few months.

The problem is that it's just the SOS over and over. Even in the subjects that interest me I seldom see anything that I haven't seen a hundred times before. It didn't used to be that - or at least that's my recollection.

Zero hours for about 5 years. I can get what I want online.

I watch or at least have on in the background certain shows. I like cooking shows because I enjoy some of the demonstrations. I also like David. If someone posts about a certain product, and I'm interested, I watch the demo online. Recently they offered the Shark Rocket as a TSV. I probably watched every single presentation of that. I bought it, and am very pleased with it.

I flip over to QVC occasionally during commercials if I am watching live tv (rather than a Tivo'd show). Even though I don't buy often anymore, I do check the recently aired shows online.

I will watch QVC if my regular channels (HGTV, Food Channel, Cooking Channel) have shows on that don't appeal and if I am in the mood to be watching something.

I am happy to say that I do shop at QVC but mostly online. They are phasing out IPad 2s on easy pay, and I got one with a bluetooth keyboard and case for about $150 less than retail for the tablet. Apple products don't often go on sale. Anyhow, I found that online, but once in a while I will watch the TV. I think the hosts are generally quite good at their jobs, and weirdly, I prefer QVC to 10-minute banks of commercials on HGTV, including the guy shouting about Oxy-Clean.

Not very much. Maybe an hour a week.

I love how some posters never watch, haven't for years, as if it's beneath them. But they're more than happy to be here, holding court, with an audience courtesy of the Q. I did not edit this post.

The only time I ever watch QVC is late at night during the commercials in the program I am watching while trying to fall asleep.
