Doesn't HSN sell a comparable apple? What have they said about this situation?

You are assuming that QVC knows something the CDC doesn't and that's the kind of thinking that could get a lot of people sick. QVC is most likely relying on it's lawyers, PR people, what other companies are doing and experts in this area to guide their decision-making process. If QVC was a leader, they would have automatically refunded every single apple purchase from July to today, sent out all kinds of notices and given additional credits for the inconvenience. QVC is not a leader. They are waiting until their hands are forced (cf. Paula Deen).

As I said, I am not waiting for some corporate lawyer to decide when and if I should eat a potentially contaminated apple.

I totally agree with this and your other posts. There have been other products with safety hazards (heaters, Christmas trees, etc) and QVC was a "day late and dollar short" to act after the fact. Why the OP defends them like a company rep or agent is strange.

If anyone was going to get sick from Mrs. P's apples, it would be the show hosts, don't ya think?

Have any of them gotten sick?

Uh, no, they haven't.

Besides, if you just stop and think and just use just a little common sense, ask yourself if QVC would want to be involved in a big 'ol fat lawsuit, if they even suspected that their apples were bad.

They wouldn't want that would they?

No, they wouldn't.

So, if they even suspected that their apples were bad, don't you think that they would send out a big 'ol flashing neon warning to its customers, in order to prevent from being involved in that big 'ol nasty lawsuit?

Why, yes! Yes they would.

And since they haven't, logic dictates that their apple products are safe.

Case closed, your honor!

Exactly right! You just proved my point!

If QVC SUSPECTED that their apples were bad, they would have issued warning, refunds, etc. But they haven't have they? As you, yourself said, they haven't.

Why?

Because their apples haven't been recalled! That's why.

Thank-you for proving my point.

The sound of her eating the apples.

Whether I would eat a Mrs. P apple was not my concern. I knew my in-laws would not and they were the recipients of them.

I choose to believe you are purposely missing my point because you are bored. Have a good night.

I think she is too. Her posts don't make sense.

I didn't miss your point. It was just irrelevant.

Have a good night!
