@po gal.  When youre so easily annoyed that someone's Southern accident, the prices and merchandise get on your nerves, it's time to turn off the TV and find something else to do.

anyone with Southern accent can talk to me anytime. Read the phone book ( if we had them anymore)!  The thicker the better. Soothing and so interesting to me!  Love Ya'll

I was born and raised in the South...lived here all my life and I have never said the word ya'll. Guess it must get on the nerves of some people.

@Regal Bee  one of my in-laws is from Around Baton Rouge. Although he's been in California for 14 years, he doesn't have accent to me. He and his family say Y'all.  But it's more of a an exclamation or emphasis on something. He doesn't use it all the time. But everyone in the family picked it up, and sometimes we use it. I love it. But what do I know!  I think the word includes a lot of people, lol

oh, yes, for sure @po gal, quite expensive, fortunately there are many sites for a lower cost on most of the same stuff.

To each her own.

I happily paid more than $50.00 for a T-shirt awhile back -it was a Johhny Was bamboo T-shirt from Saks, and I wear it year after year. Superbly soft and quite colorful!

My goal in life has never been to buy the cheapest items--but to purchase the BEST items for me at the price I am willing to pay.

Thanks to the Q, I have a fabulous collection of casual clothes, bought over the years.  You could not even pay ME to shop for clothes on Amazon.

I tried on two lovely Spring dresses at Macy's today, and I did not like the fit on either. 

I have a lot of confidence with the sizing on QVC, so I continue to purchase casual clothes here.  However, I buy almost all my dresses in department stores.  NM does fabulous alterations.

P.S. "Ya'll"  is much prettier than Pgh. "Yins"

New Adrianna Papell dress at Macy's--cut low under arm and high above so regular bra will not work, and minimal stretch.

Is QVC the most inexpensive place to purchase clothing? No, there are many other place which under cut QVC.  I pulled a great bonanza haul at JC Penney.

However, do they offer easy pay? No, this one reason QVC stays in busy. One could get that $50 t shirt home and pay for it over time.

As for Kim's y'alls and girls, that her thing which has endeared her to many QVC shoppers and QVC must like it because they have not toned her down.  To me, she gives off a strong Paula Deen vibe.

Will agree some prices on the Q are just ridiculous saw a Driftwood blouse for $102.00 between their clothing and then the other day  to have an all day jewelry show with their prices just made me watch all day Court TV.

Not saying the jewerly wasn't beautiful

Know it is the times we are living in but doesn't the Q know that they will never get out of the RED with these  prices ,nice if you can afford them  but think plenty of viewers are  thinking like me and are watching our $$$$

QVC has gotten totally ridiculous on their pricing. Who's going to give you $50 for a t-shirt. And if I hear Kim gravel say y'all or girl one more time I think I'm going to shoot myself.
Susan graver's clothes has gotten cheaper than Kim gravels. She has better quality. But both are too expensive in my opinion. Will continue to look on Amazon for my apparel

They have always had high pricing.

Their prices are aligned with other retailers in the mid tier category.  They're not a discount store and they're not a luxury retailer.  

Brand names like Driftwood set their own MSRPs and retailers don't have much wiggle room. 

Also, please keep in mind not everyone shopping at QVC is retired, on a fixed income, needing to watch their dollars, etc.  Yes many on this forum are, but very limited demographic.
