My question is, "How do you know how a product is packaged?" when you are sending it to a person for Christmas as a bill to ship to.  I don't want the packaging to give away what has been sent.  Just wondering.

I've noticed on Amazon some of their items have a statement to the effect that packaging may reveal the contents.  With QVC, I guess you'd just have to chance it.  Most things, but not all, are in a plain outter box but there's no telling which aren't and I feel certain CS wouldn't know.

During checkout most companies like qvc and hsn ask if it's a gift,

then you have the option of getting it gift wrapped (at an additional cost) but the invoice is not shipped to the recipient.

@Kachina624  I just had a "chat" with customer service and they told me that they don't know how it is packaged unless they have received an item themselves, which is a bummer.

@katte  I figured that would be the case.

@JaneMarple  Customer service informed me they are not wrapping gifts for christmas a the present time.

For the Q you have your choice of a Q plastic bag or a Q brown corrugated box.

I'm sure all they will know is that it's from QVC.

What specifically are you referring to, clothing, handbag, sheets?

Sometimes and let me emphasize sometimes, larger items do not get put in a brown box, the item stays packaged in it's original box with the invoice taped on the outside.

@Mistreatedbycs  A set of cookware.
