I have been seeing an advertizment for www.brand.com it is a company that takes away the bad reveiws and replaces them with good ones, for any company. AUTOMATICALLY, so not, ne will not be able to really see the HONEST reveiws for a company anyway. BUYER BEWARE

yes, truly most reviews should be taken with a grain of salt- I tend to look for trends...a lot of people reporting the same problem, for example-

I have a friend who owns a new restaurant, and he got such a bad review on YELP, that it brought down all his others- here is what happened : A lady had a 10 year old
kid who was playing the video games in the restaurant.. One of the machines was broken and the kid lost his quarters- so, even though the machines are clearly marked that they are owned by an outside company and that all losses should be addressed to THEM, even so, my friend replaced his money- He unplugged the machine- THEN the kid plugged it back in and claimed he lost another $2- At this point my friend said "forget it" well, that lady wrote such a scathing review, even though it had nothing to do with the food, service or anything truly restaraunt related, that it really hurt his business and there is NOTHING he can do to get rid of it-

So reviews cut both ways...

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I took your advice and posted my frustration on the suggestion board too, although i got way more feedback here so maybe sharing this "viewpoint" here wasn't entirely misguided. I can see most people share my frustration with this qvc problem. I cant tell you how many times i see people say "i had to return for a smaller size" in the reviews and if enough people write it, i order accordingly and it will fit perfectly, so the reviews are an important aspect of the qvc experience. I feel like i shouldnt have to also google an item to get better reviews - not to mention that if you do that, you are risking getting reviews of a slightly different run or version of the Q product. All in all im glad i posted here and truly appreciate you all hearing me out.
