I have noticed that also. Just yesterday I was watching some show and thought the e-z price was the selling price and I still thought the price was too high. No it's not your eyes, they do this on purpose.

You have to read the fine print everywhere - absolutely everywhere!

BTW- Last night I caught one item being presented by David - maybe a Joan Rivers show??? Bought almost the same thing last season at Nordstrom where there is no shipping charge. Problem: I paid just under $80 for that blouse and there was nothing special about it. I just needed something right away with long sleeves to take on a trip. Even with the Q's shipping, they would have been far cheaper. I couldn't risk waiting and then not having a fit - took me a half dozen tries in Nordies!

I buy very few clothes from the Q, but price is definitely not the reason. I just prefer brick and mortar, but once I can no longer do the walking, I won't hesitate to dress from the Q.

Well, I was (temporarily) fooled just this AM. On TV, they showed a shot of 3 pair of the TSV earrings, and I thought 3 pair for $25.00 was a great price! Then I came to my senses and realized it was one pair for that price -- they were just showing the different colors. Even so, I don't think that shot was accidental.

How is it even possible for a pair of stud pearl earrings to be considered a special value at $25?

It's always a victory for me when I remember why I entered a room.

There are a couple of host who say ""25.00$ it's in your house."". I prefer ""we break it down to 25.00$ a month"". Just sounds the honest truth.

I don't like that either. If they have to trick people to buy that's not good.

This started months ago. The EZ Pay price is huge and brightly colored, and I do agree that it's pretty sleazy.

Tactics like this leave a bitter taste in my mouth.

QVC is very close to crossing the line. A lot of fast talking carney tactics. The other night I watched a product being presented. The total price was NEVER mentioned. I think it is sleezey..I watch less and less and therefore shop less. Don't they get it?
