HSN Complaint

queen75 · ‎07-12-2019

I took this post from the HSN Community Boards. I am lol lol..This could have been written by any of us...

What makes me roll my eyes and want to leave a presentation –

When a show host gasps for air like they never seen the product. ***** OOOOOHHHHH!! She GASPS FOR AIR as she brings her hand to her heart. ****** If you are feeling that bad, somebody call 911. STAT! I will now disappoint these show hosts by saying, they will make more shoes, clothes, tvs, computers, jewelry, blankets, etc.

I don’t need anymore clothing or shoes for walking the dog, going to the mailbox, going to the farmer’s market, going on vacation, meeting the girlfriends after work, or going on a cruise.

I also do not need anymore items for my vacation home, my second car, or the RV.

I am not racking my brain with what to give my coworkers, hair stylist, teacher, etc.

Tell me the size/dimensions from all angles, the true color away from the camera, show the product from ALL angles,the warranty, and show TRUE garment measurements! Bang it on the table a few times, but STOP with the gasping for air routine! UGH!

HSN is the worst at that dramatic gasping and the 'aws" with phoned testimonials.

They are both guilty now. My goodness there are a few "gasp queens" on QVC..Clapping hands and gasping..I do that when I get a clean bill of health from my doctor..

Can't take female host w/David who eats and then it's "are .... you ..... kidding ..... me." Nope, really not. You're eating and tasting it.

ShopHQ has several "gasp queens." It gets very annoying hearing them do that frequently during shows. Like I know you've got to sell a product but tone it down girl! 🥺

And what makes this even funnier is, if you can't sleep, and happen to tune in to QVC or HSN during their endless droning repeats until you can predict with deadly accuracy exactly WHEN this gasp fest will take place....

It's like Groundhog Day in real life!!!!!!

Seeing someone lose thier figurative minds over an item that's been presented ad nauseum for YEARS on the network(or some iteration of same) is in itself, disturbing!!!

"Oh Mark Charles!!!!" gushes the veteran hostess, who's sold these things for DECADES....."Those shears in 4 colors!!!!! In steel that won't rust!!!! (NOT) Ohhhh...how did I survive without a set by the mailbox, the kitchen, the garage, the garden, the glove box, the medicine chest, the picnic table and in my overpriced handbag?!?!?!?!?"

Whereby she swoons on the set, the camera breaks away, and they administer smelling salts to revive the stricken host......the camera cuts to Mark Charles who goes on obliviously snipping open battery clamshell packages as if nothing happened.....

@Othereeeen Last night JT was saying she was crying at several of the callers and their bolt stories. I was luckily heading for a shower and turned her off! To me half those stories sounded fake. I will say that I have the Halo Bolt and bought several for gifts a few years ago. It is a great thing to have in the car---That don't mean I want to see it for 22 hours out of a 24 hour day.
