There's something that I really want that's on Waitlist.  I do want it and ordered it.  How often do you usually get a Waitlisted item?  I've ordered a couple of times and never got it.  It's not anything that's available elsewhere exactly like this.

I have always received my waitlist items. Almost always it's jewelry, if that helps. Things may be different now with the slowdown in delivery.

Received more times than not.

I don't place that many waitlist orders but I have always recieved what I've ordered...usually I've forgotten about them.

I've received more of them than not .  I don't use waitlsit any longer, it's just a personal thing so I don't shop as much.  I tell myself oh well, it sold out......what I did like about it though is it gave me time to think about the purchase and many times I was able to cancel the item altogether.

@NickNack  I used to get them most of the time, but the last few times I had something on waitlet, QVC ended up cancelling the item order.

I don’t do waitlists anymore. Only twice in about 25 years did I get a waitlist item. One of those times was a fantastic Basso faux fur coat.

It used to be almost a sure thing pretty much every time. Increasingly over the past several years I've had a number of items cancelled and so it seems less so. I've had one item on WL now for some time and am beginning to think I'll probably be getting the cancellation notice sooner or later.

I get my wait list orders more than half the time. I was late to the party when a cool Issac Mizrahi dress was shown. I went on wait list for three colors and got two of those. Then a fourth color was available and I ordered that, even though it was my least favorite. Of course the color that I really wanted i probably won’t get. Once I was on wait list for something and then saw it was available online, yet my wait list was not “ in process.” So I ordered it. I also have had luck getting “as is” items, as far as clothing. If it is clothing, you can search “As is” and the designer. All my "as is" items have been like brand new. Good luck!

Thank you, everyone, for your replies.  I just checked my Waitlist order and it's now In Process.  I hope that doesn't change back to Waitlist again.
