The shipping issue around here just never gets resolved to the satisfaction of everyone so decide-deal with it and continue to shop or go elsewhere.
So a newbie will get a perk and that is standard on many other shopping sites-a discount for new customers is nothing new.
I agree @Cakers3
I have shopped MANY new sites....sign up/place first order and get a discount or free ship etc.
Discount code pops up in an email....
Good for NEW/FIRST customers only....see it all the time and I will take advantage of it.
Q isn't the first to offer a promo ONLY to first/new customers.
Just like 'sign up for our credit card', NEW customers only. NOT those that had a Q card and closed it.
ALL sites do it..I'm invited for something special by every vendor.
I don't begrudge this.
I have no problem with offering new customers a special deal. I have taken advantage of new customer discounts also, but how many of those sites offer you a discount on 15 orders over 3 1/2 months.

Fair point @Josmad
New customer incentives are usually on the first order.
They are definitely being generous.
But not always the case. I shop places where once I hit a certain amount spent, I get free shipping and a passport discount for life.
Other sites you only have to spend $25-39 to get free shipping on every order.
That's barely one item sometimes and it is a promo that continues.

Many sites offer deals to returning customers especially during the holiday season. I get numerous offers from Kohls all year long. I think that is all people are asking QVC to do with their returning customers. QVC if offering nothing as an incentive for a returning customer.

It's much easier to complain and come up with different scenarios to question than it is to actually do your own research and READ! Thank you for posting this!

@snipsnapsnur - you might want to add this information to a couple of the other complaints regarding this subject. I have a feeling no one read the information.

I will say this type of promotion bothers me - not that I care about QVC because I don't buy anything from them any longer. However, I see this on my Dish network bill, or my Verison phone. I stopped my Onstar subscription because they wouldn't give me the same offer that they give new subscribers. And they didn't even support my 2013 Buick onstar because it has 3G technology. Same with Dish, I am still with them, but If I was a new customer I could be paying $85 a month, instead of $123. I guess it's a common practice, but it doesn't instill warm fussy's towards a company.

@new nickname 4 "Same with Dish, I am still with them, but If I was a new customer I could be paying $85 a month, instead of $123. I guess it's a common practice, but it doesn't instill warm fussy's towards a company."
I also started with a low payment with my cable company but over the years it has increased. That is what these companies do. They give you a good deal at first and eventually they increase their prices. The people who pay $85 will pay $123 just give it some time.

I don't think it is fair to give free shipping to new customers. What about us LONGTERM CUSTOMERS????
