I doubt anyone has their cc info...if someone calls all they have to say its for whatever host and it can be ordered...as the cc info would already be on file...

OMG! I have to order whenever they say it.

LOL! I've never understood this as they must see what they are selling beforehand, and the items must be on qvc.com. Always thought it was phony..........Suddenly they are overcome and must have it? But didn't feel like that beforehand?

its really annoying when they say can I get this is xxxxs and all five colors - YES its a sales ploy. I wonder how many of the production people have their cc card numbers, they must all have them {#emotions_dlg.lol}

It's like the hosts are giving everyone extra permission to impulse buy since they're doing it too. Crowd psychology.

Someone there must have noticed that they get a sales spike when the hosts talk about buying things. We're supposed to think, 'Well she should know. She sees all sorts of stuff everyday. So if she wants that thing it must be really good!'

When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.

Do you need a password if you order from your cell phone?

Whatever their motivation, it doesn't really bother me and it also doesn't make me rush to the computer to follow suit..., though it is rather transparent.
