Re: So When did you become a QVC Shopper?

It was the 80s.  I think 1988 or 1989.

Re: So When did you become a QVC Shopper?

   I was working with a group of women  in 1990  who constantly talked abt buying this and that from  a TV shopping network  which turned out to be QVC.

 I  first  began shopping  at the Outlet store and went to the QVC  studio store a few times in the early 1990's .

 Some years later , in the 2000's , I ordered a few things  via phone  and via  online.  I stopped buying from QVC  my opinion  was the merchandise was stale , same old thing or not the quality .

Probably in the late 80s.  My first purchase was most likely a Morgan Fairchild or Black Hills Gold ring.

Re: So When did you become a QVC Shopper?

Seems like the beginning of time.  LOL  Actually it is way back when our Comcast Cable carried it and I believe it might have been almost the beginning of QVC.  Loved in the beginning.  I had four daughter in my house and a teaching position.  I had little or no time to shop except for groceries.  QVC was a lifesaver for anything I might want or need.  Over time I really pulled away.  Need no more, have more time to explore and the Internet really exploded with other choices just in case I needed to buy something.

 

And I will add the hosts and vendors talked PRODUCT and there was more serious talk to help us make good choices. Loved the old hosts, a real loss when they left one by one.

I was home because I'd hurt my back at work, was channel surfing on tv and came across QVC.  That was April of 1995.  Mentioned to a friend that I'd found this shopping channel and she'd been watching for a while.

Such a long time ago, Jane T was wearing diapers.

 

Before it became QVC.

Re: So When did you become a QVC Shopper?

late 80's. I came home from American Bandstand a disco and was channel surfing around 2 am. I think my first purchase was jewelry. I started with HSN right before that and bought jewelry that was probably a gold chain from Michael Anthony. Still own lots of gemstone bracelets.

 

I bought the first clothing item that Mary Beth was presenting from Denim & Co. It was a Navajo blazer.

Jan 24, 1995, I had been wanting a gold herringbone chain. I was channel surfing and there it was on my screen. It was the TSV for Gold Day.
