What a wonderful deal if only there was something on my wish list.

In years past, I'd be jumping up & down, purchasing JR Russian eggs to add to my collection, maybe Barry Cord jewelry, Liz C. sweaters, Zoe leather jacket, maybe RLM Sterling jewelry (most now is brass), etc. No great designers even at 5 e/p.

Besides the prices on everything across the board are quite high. Dividing it by 5 is still not a great deal. I'd much rather have the prices lowered and quality raised.

Seems to be a theme, as I feel the same way. I did just buy a few capris for summer on easy pay Saturday for their "flash" event, but that was because I was waiting for it. 

And you're right, they are pricey, especially compared to other retailers. Sadly, I happen to like the fit, so I reluctantly paid it, but bought far less than I would have in the past.

I just answered a similar post on the Friends forum. 

I'm not really looking for anything today, but, speaking only for my preferences, I'm not a fan of easy pay. I have no desire to buy a shirt and then take almost half a year to pay for it. I don't like to incur debt and that's what it is. 

I've been a QVC customer since they purchased CVN. A long time. I hardly watch anymore because of the limited programming and repetitive showing of the same items OVER AND OVER. I used to have it on for enjoyment but now it seems that "every time" I turn it on it's Dyson, Wen, computers, beds, Vitamix, etc. sometimes for an hour at a time for one product. 

Anyway....instead of easy pay, or in addition to it, I'd love for them to add some loyalty programs: free shipping for card holders, or a prime shipping program like Amazon has, points for fashion or beauty purchases that convert to QVC gift cards/account credits when you reach a certain threshold. Things like that attract customers. 

Easy pay doesn't do it for me.

Free shipping day.  That's what will make me shop more.  Once a few months ago they did offer a free shipping day.  I put several items from my Wish List into my Cart and shopped.  I saved over $20.

@ShanusEasy Pay is not my lure to buy, but even if it were, I no longer shop the way I used to, no longer buy many of the kinds of things I used to, no longer buy the quantities I used to. 

I'm still spending QVC money, but virtually 90% of it is personal care products.  That mounts up, but has nothing to do with fashion day, so often I don't even turn QVC on Mondays which tend to be fashion no matter what the titles are.

I'm not even sure that I'd buy more if they changed what they're offering.  I live so close to a huge and wonderful mall where I used to manage to spend plenty, yet in the past 2 years, I've come home almost always without having spent anything except what it cost me to get a haircut and color.  Absolutely nothing at Macys for about 5 years now and even Nordstrom seems to have nothing  I really want.

I hate to see businesses struggle, but there's just no way I'm about to buy things just to support our consumer society.  I'm passing that torch!

I got a pr of IM true denim jeans. For me ,they are the best. I am petite, so the ankle length jeans don't need alterations.

I like the fact they aren't that stretchy stuff , they now sell .These are only 1% stretch and they keep their shape, and don't bag

It doesn't matter to me about easy pay because I'm clear out closets of too many clothes not worn, makeup & lotions/potions/skincare that were duds and same w/ haircare products.

Ironically, most of what's being stuffed into large black trash bags is from the Q. My better, more stylish & higher quality clothing has stood the test of time (& wear). 

I'm careful not to purchase clothing from the Q because it's not often something I'll have for years to come. Fabrics are not up to par. Did I mention style & price, too?

Skincare and makeup can be purchased at ULTA (where I get points) or dept. stores....and most jewelry I can make myself or get locally, too.

Sorry QVC. Easy pay is no deal for me. Don't know why you think it is so special. It's no different than charging full amount on credit card and taking 5 months to pay it off (OK w/o interest).

I'll pass.

@cherry Are you around 5'4"...the typical petite? At 5'1", petites still need a hem. I purchase regular size Capri length pants. Perfect...right at the ankle bone!!! Tailoring is really expensive, even just a hem. Petites get the short end of the stick...sleeve length, too.

@Shanus  I'm 5 ft. I wish I were 5 ft 4

Easy pay is nice for me ,we are on a fixed income and , it is interest free. I am sure there are other people who are in the same boat, that appreciate this feature

Easy pay doesn't give me any inspiration to buy anything.  I prefer not to use it.  As I have said before, I find it annoying that Easy Pay is their default setting on Speed Buy and on Automated Ordering.
