Re: Shipping Charge Complaint

QVC ships out constantly and receives discounts from everyone. I am not sure how the insurance works for the Q but I have purchase jewelry in the past and not pay $9 to ship. The Q is looking out for the Q, not the customer.

But by the time one adds shipping and sales tax to the Q prices, very little of their merchandise is a good deal. I would rather take those dollars and shop locally. At least I only pay sales tax here, and not sales tax AND shipping.

AND if you're buying something on E bay outside of your state, you don't pay sales tax!

Re: Shipping Charge Complaint

QVC doesn't purchase shipping insurance. They are ""self insured.""

My state requires that I put items like that on my tax return and pay a "use tax". I'd rather it was taxed at point of purchase.

Re: Shipping Charge Complaint

Why do you think they want you to use the return label w/your item? I stopped shopping here 2 yrs this month. I live near the Mall of America..free parking and all the stores one would ever need. BTW when I go to the mall, I buy more then 1 item so the little gas I use is more then worth the trip.
