Shipping and Handling Reduction? Anyone else notice?

Is this a stealth move from QVC? I have noticed the last few days that the shipping seems to be a little bit less expensive. $3.00 and $5.00 S&P. If this is the case and not just a fluke I may have to buy a few things that interest me.

Just thought I would throw this out there.

Yes, I was very happy to notice some items have $3 shipping. I know QVC has to make money, but when you get something delivered in an envelope from the Post Office....its hard to believe that it cost them over $6! Maybe QVC listened to the customers about this.

There have been a couple of threads about this. I think it's a promotion, only going to last about a week. Yes, now is the time to buy if you see anything you want!

Yes, someone said this reduced shipping and handling is for a limited time, but I don 't know when it's over. The hosts surprisingly don't say much about it.

The prices on most items have increased.

I must have missed the other threads so I am sorry for reposting. I didn't realize this is a promotion thing so I guess I will look at my wish list and order a few things. I always have a hard time ordering a shirt/blouse when the shipping is 6-8 dollars.

Its only for post office not UPS, items might take much longer to be delivered

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Yes, me too, notice prices have increased - so the Q is getting more $$$ for items and a little less for S/H = no big savings for us.

It is not just for items shipped via the post office. I ordered the Philosophy TSV that is coming up in April and it shipped yesterday via UPS and shipping was only $2.98.

The reduced shipping prices are good through 3/31.

The promotion ends 03/31. Though you can't really call it a promotion as QVC hasn't even mentioned it. There is nothing on the homepage to let the casual shopper know about this so I don't know their point in doing this.
