Are there specific posters on Viewpoints doing this? If not, then posting here isn't going to do you any good.

Maybe you should e-mail them directly or post on another blog and ask QVC to not post those types of reviews.

ktlynam...shame on you...was it YOU?

yes, I confess. It was I. And you know that Judith Ripka watch? Well, I've never even seen it, purchased it, worn it, but I can tell you that it s*cks. It doesn't keep time and is too large for my ankle.

ETA: Oh, and it has a funny smell.

Oh I see...you secretly just got out of jail and are wearing an ankle thingy.Keep talking and we will figure you all out.

This is perfect.

I think you are a welcome addition.

Perhaps this should have been posted either in all the forums or at least in the forums that are more product centric than Viewpoints.

Haha, maybe....but like I said, this was my first post and let's be honest, if you're posting anything anywhere on the QVC website, I mean....it's the Q V C website.

You might want to post this in the Suggestions forum. IMO you have a legitimate complaint and cite an excellent example of where it's happened (BE foundation). It'd be interesting to see if they actually do something about it and purge the reviews from non-users.

Thanks for the direction. By golly, I'm going to go ahead and make my second post and copy and paste this there! Thanks everyone for allowing me to vent.

In the case of the bare minerals foundation, is it possible they already launched in their stores, so all the reviews were from people who bought it in the stores?

nope. it won't launch until april.

Oy, that is a big problem. QVC shouldn't allow those reviews. It's gonna taint the overall rating which qualifies a product as "Customer Top Rated".

I think most of the reviews are tainted...if I'm interested in something I'll check out the
reviews, but it doesn't sway me one way or the other since they are "subjective".

Does your ankle have a funny smell? QVC can't do anything about that, well, maybe they can via a good philosophy body wash.

Poop-erri for the ankle perhaps?

It is the Q's fault for accepting these reviews. Many sites only take reviews from ""verified"" purchasers. Q should do the same.

ITA. Blame QVC for allowing these.

HSN uses only verified purchase reviews.

Sorry if I'm duplicating a response. This is clearly ""controllable"" by QVC. HSN does not allow you to post a review until a couple of days after you have received the item. QVC could clearly implement a similar practice. Reviews are often useless otherwise.

Correct!
