I have to say that I have been very happy with the fast shipping I have received lately. I know it's been noted from time to time about the slow shipping sometimes and I have been in that crowd but for the last month or so at least, I have received my QVC orders quickly.

I ordered a Belle Cardigan on 4/12, it shipped 4/15 and I received it today 4/17.  I ordered the Clarks Sandal TSV on 4/11, they shipped on 4/13 and  I received them on 4/16. Happy Girl ! Anyone else happy ?

Same here. I've never had a problem with late shipping at all. I'm in CT. Lately it's faster than it's ever been.

Now....if only they'd stop charging $6.95 for return shipping....

Still.waiting for my orders placed on the 8th.  One still says "preparing your ordet". Can't cancel it.  Was going to call yesterday but got busy with work.

Update:  called Friday morning and spoke to customer service. The answer she gave was very convoluted.   When I asked for a clearer reason, she could not give one.  Just her "script".  Anyway, the story was that it was stuck and she would need to let another department know.   They would call me in 4 days.  Told her that I didn't need a call just the item that was now 10 days in preparing status.  Checked last night.  Looks like it's no longer stuck.  It's a set of Cuddle Duds pj's.   Funny thing one order with 4 sets.  This is the only one that was stuck in the order.  One arrived yesterday.   2 more should be here Tuesday and guess on the last one.  Long story...sorry....but shouldn't take 14 days to receive pj's.

I ordered a top on the 10th, it's out for delivery today, the 18th, so more than a week from order to delivery. Ordered a top on the 14th...hasn't shipped yet.

If they ship via UPS, I get things pretty quickly. It's USPS that takes sooooo long!

I ordered four things on the 6th during free shipping.  All of them were delivered by Thursday and Friday of that week.

But here's my "funny" shipping story of the week.  Not QVC, but my DH gets some medical supplies by mail (the post office).  Thankfully, it's nothing urgently needed.

I'm registered for Informed Delivery.  Well, I got a notice that the package was due to be delivered today, the 18th.  No package and it's now after midnight.

So I checked the tracking.  I'm in New England.  This package was shipped from Connecticut on the 14th and yesterday (17th) was in a town in Massachusetts, a couple of hours away from me.

Then it was shipped to Des Moines, Iowa and arrived there around 1:45 p.m. on the 18th.  All while still saying it was supposed to be delivered that day.

Now, I always laugh and say geography isn't my strong point, but I do believe that package is headed in the wrong direction!  Unless they plan to circumnavigate the globe to get back to the east coast.

It has now left Des Moines, but no indication of where it's going to next!

Well done, post office!  (And this is not the first time they've sent my packages on a magical mystery tour.  The Postmaster General who has just resigned was supposed to be improving things!  Good thing he's gone.)

 This post always pops up that shipping is suddenly changed and faster.. NOT!

I notice USPS sometimes doesn't get around to delivering until  a day later than promised in tracking. It must sit in the PO until the carrier gets to it as shows in the PO? When USPS is delivering I just don't expect it on time. 

I know they HATE packages. My carrier took another route as said mine had too many packages.. He said it was  a longer route, but he didn't care.

Nothing has changed shipping is still all over the place. I have l earned to not expect it. Amazon is fast and uses USPS ,usually, but they are an exception. I often take longer than overnight as four days is no biggie unless occasional  expected longer time from shipper.

Update to my post #8.  My package left Des Moines at 1:34 a.m. and at 1:53 a.m. it arrived back at Des Moines!!!  There's no further updating since then.

Has the USPS really become this incompetent?  I hate to think what condition his medical supplies will be in, if they ever reach us.  So many times they've sent packages to a distribution center or town much further north of us (going right past our house), only to have to reroute them to our local post office.  But this is the worst I've seen.
