ATTENTION: QVC Le Creuset Buyers

Please reconsider your decision to eliminate almost all LeCreuset.  Approximately 4 to 8 weeks ago, QVC's website went from over a hundred items to 8 or 10 items.  As of today, 10/16/17, there are only 4 items to choose from.  Three of the four items are grill pan related, and the fourth item is a set of silicone spatulas.

I hope QVC is simply reworking the web page for the LeCreuset brand and has not chosen to discontinue all except the few choices that now appear.  Many customers are counting on QVC to be able to add to their collection.  Other retailers offer this brand, but your customers choose QVC because of color choices and easy pay.

i know QVC is currently promoting its new line of Cooks Essentials cast iron, but there are many of us who prefer to continue buying the LeCreuset.

Thank you for considering my request.

Sadly I think the last part of your post may indeed be the reason why we are not seeing much Le Creuset.

Yep, I think it's gone because they want to promote their house brand, which is more than likely MIC. 

 

For some reason QVC seemed mostly to do presentations of nonstandard pieces. I have a lot of LC but I didn't buy any of it from QVC.

If you want something, call one of their outlet stores.  They carry both second and first quality, lots of discontinued items and colors and fabulous prices!!

 

I can tell you the people at the one in Oklahoma City will be nice to you and will look for special items and inspect things before they ship.  They have great deals and so much more to select from than Q ever had.

I have gotten Amazing deals at the outlet stores on first quality items.  It's a real treat when I find something I love and hadn't expected to.

The outlet in Kittery Maine has great service too.  Not sure if they still ship free over $100, but they used to.  Imthink their semi annual sale is coming up in the next month, usually Thanksgiving time.  Love my LC..especiallymwhen I get a great deal!

Bed Bath and Beyond online now carries Le Creuset and unlike Williams Sonoma or Crate and Barrel, coupons are accepted!  I just ordered a few items and was able to use my 20% coupon.

Re: ATTENTION: QVC Le Creuset Buyers

@IQ2DOU I share your pain.  I searched for Le Creuset on easy pay and free shipping day and there was only one cookware offering.  

Life has narrowed my choices of where to purchase and Amazon and QVC have been a blessing.

 I was looking forward to adding to my small collection but probably won't now.  No one else offers 6 easy pay.  Shipping on the larger pieces is an average of $20.  And, I want blue not orange or red!  

 

Q is offering another copycat line of enameled cast iron pieces but that line doesn't have the same time honored tradition. 

In the scope of life's important issues this one doesn't even rank.  But-  sometimes you just want top of the line, not a "make do" or imposter.

@CoG  Outlet stores have both first and second quality.  And you will save often half off what you would have paid at QVC, sometimes more.  They have specials every month and the sale inventory and colors change frequently.  

 

At the prices factory stores have and the range of products you sure won't miss the easy pay much when you get 50, 60 or even more sometimes percent off the retail price Q charged you.  They sometimes have free shipping as well.
