T here are people who have the money for such things, don't mind spending it and want to just order all their holiday foods and goodies, pre-cooked, and have everything delivered right to their door. Money isn't everything, you know. There are a lot of professionals who work very hard and they are long on money and very short on time. And they cannot cook! LOL Sure you can find cooked dinners with all the fixings locally, for much less money. But, they don't deliver them to your door and you have to go other places for desserts and appetizers. QVC would be one stop shopping. I remember the year my mom passed away, I was grieving and depressed and my mind just was not into making a holiday for my family. I just couldn't deal with it mentally. I didn't want to deal with it. My husband bought a fully cooked turkey dinner from a grocery store and I bought a ton desserts and candy and appetizers from QVC and some catalog that I can't remember the name of. My family and guests had everything they needed for a Merry Christmas and that is what mattered to me. Cost was not an issue. I'm sure it was incredibly expensive but the convenience was worth every penny and more.

Mostly I like beef tenderloin which Q stopped offering. They also have a very good pre cooked brisket that I have ordered several times. Also like that I can pick my own delivery date when ordering direct from them.On 11/12/2014 chickenbutt said:On 11/12/2014 EnglishRose88 said: Their prices are crazy! A KC spiral sliced ham for $10/lb! I bought a spiral sliced ham and glaze over the weekend for $2.18/lb.Those KC hams really are the best, but it seems like they are trying to price themselves out of the market this year. I've purchased them every year for several years, but the price went up considerably this year - at QVC anyway.
In general I don't like pork, especially ham. But I to agree with you. If I have to eat ham those are the best! Never bought one myself but my boss has brought them in to holiday dinners.

Q price for spiral ham, 7.25-8.5 lbs is $72.98 for 4 easy pay, and KC site has the same ham and weight for $59.95, and with pay pal credit, can be 6 pay.........

Yeah, I saw that. I have one in my shopping cart. I wish I could order it now but get a Dec delivery, but I don't think they do that. I don't know if the price will go up or the free ship will go away so I'm thinking I will cancel the one I have at QVC and order it directly from KC. It's kind of stupid to pay that much more for the same exact thing - just to get a delayed shipment.

It used to be that Q had better prices than KC, but they sure as heck do not any more.....

I decided to go back to KC to complete that sale and they added shipping, so the cost ended up being about $3 different from the QVC price. Weird, so I got out of there.
Too bad they have increased the price so much. These are great hams but I'm sure the price increase precluded many people from purchasing them. The only reason I probably still will is that, even at that cost, the 'per use' cost is low. I get a whole bunch of servings, plus I make up several packets of several slices, AND I get a huge pot of split pea soup that's another dozen plus servings.
I'd rather pay for outstanding quality, but there will be a limit at some point!
