I kept thinking the prices seem so much higher on items I purchased in the past. So went through my order history and was shocked at the increases. Isaac 24/7 stretch pants almost $10 higher than a few months ago. Most clothing items had steep increases. It's no wonder I haven't purchased clothing from QVC lately and won't be in the future. I can do so much better in retail sales. Whatever happened to the brick & mortar stores had such high overhead their prices were high. Now it appears QVC has the high overhead.

The cost of everything is going up, Food, etc.

Many others have posted on various social media sites that they noticed price increases very recently as well. This is just the way Q is going to make up for their "reduced shipping" prices. It is really just smoke and mirrors, and in the long run, not much will really be any cheaper, they will just change how and where the money appears on the bill.

Less shipping, more cost of the item. Less shipping, but no more half price shipping on additional items of the same item number. Less shipping, but no more 'We'll even refund your original shipping if you're not happy with the item". No real change, just an attempt to see if we are really that stupid.

I realize that but not almost $10 for a pair of pants that I purchased 3 months ago. That is completely crazy.

The materials to make clothing has gone up, too.

So, if it cost the makers more to buy the raw materials, they have to make up the loss by charging more to sell the finished item.

It's always been that way.

So? If you can't afford the prices, don't shop.

I can't understand why the cost of materials is going up since the cost of shipping them (using oil in cars/trucks etc.) is going way down.

Come to California where you will pay $5.49 for a dozen eggs, and where you will spend $.50 more per gallon for gas than any other state, and where Moonbeam thinks a $68+ billion bullet train is OK because he likes trains....

Orders for merchandise were probablty placed over a year ago when gas and oil were still high. I know on shophq, they do event prices for a weekend. Once that time period is over, the prices go back up and some are over ten dollars higher than the event price. . Regarding oil and gas prices, market experts are saying they will go backup in a few months so a company is not going to react to a temporary lull in price.

What an unkind, uncalled for comment. Was it really necessary to post?
