Has anyone taken this tour? And what did you do, and how did you like it?

I took the regular $10.00 tour a few years ago, I imagine this tour is somewhat different?

$75.00? Yikes. I'll pass, thanks.

Maybe that's the price with shipping and handling.

LOL. I'll wait until it's on easy pay.

Maybe you get to bob and twirl with Susan Graver or Jane Tracey?

It looks like someone misplaced a decimal. The website says tickets are $7.50 per adult for studio tours.

That makes more sense (or cents!) LOL

$75.00 IS NOT worth it! $10.00 is also a stretch for what you see.. Seriously, I think the tour should be free.

(I've done the tour twice)

It looks like there are two different types of tours. Studio Tours are $7.50, and All Access Tours are $75.00. The All Access tours are more "in depth," per the Q's website. I think they include "behind the scenes" areas that the Studio Tours may not visit. They also include lunch. ;-) There's an age restriction (must be 18) for the All Access Tour, but not for Studio Tour. Here are the descriptions for the Studio vs All Access Tours:

QVC All Access Tours

Join us for a one of a kind look into the world of QVC! You will start your day on our QVC Studio Tour to learn about the fantastic world of electronic retailing. At this state-of-the-art broadcasting facility, guests will see and experience how QVC products are sourced, tested, brought to life on air, and delivered to millions of QVC customers.

Next you will go beyond behind the scenes at QVC to see areas such as Broadcasting Design; Lighting; the Shop (where many of the QVC sets are created); the Studio Operations Desk; a Green Room; and much, much more!

After seeing where the television magic happens, you will get a chance to learn about the corporate world of QVC.

Lunch is included! You will finish your tour in our Studio Park Commissary where you will be able to choose from our daily menu.

After your meal you will be taken back to the QVC Studio Tour Lobby where you can catch up on any last minute shopping in our Studio Store which features much of your favorite on-air merchandise.

Tour groups are limited and need at least 2 people on the day; reservations are subject to cancellation. Tour guests, dates and times are subject to change without notice. Please note that stops on the "behind the scenes" part of the tour are based on available sets and areas. Not every tour may see all stops.

All guests are required to bring identification. Guests must go through a security search before gaining access to the studio, including a metal detector and bag search.
