@Othereeeen   Honestly I don't care how it's packaged, I do not buy food here. It is INSANELY expensive regardless what it may be.

I addition to the INSANE prices, MOST of the food QVC sells is NOT healthy - loaded with fat, sodium, etc.

I have tried Rastelli beef when it was a tsv.  Some pieces were tender, some were not.

I have a local butcher where I don't have to buy in bulk and get stuck with something I am not happy with.  

The only food item I buy on auto delivery is the Faroe Island Salmon; delicous and love the way it comes indivually frozen.  Perfect for me and so delicous every time.

Automatic channel changer when I see this man on TV.  Charging $20-30 per pound for seafood and beef is price gouging. Ray Rasetlli should be ashamed of himself. I will not contribute toward his cofers.  The other day he was selling 24 hot dogs for over $100.00.  I just cannot with this man anymore.

@Reever   QVC sets the prices, not the Vendors.

@Reever 

For once I agree with you!!!

Of course QVC lets them set the price ( or Q sets the price)...but it's ridiculous.

And I don't care if they're round or tubular in shape....100 bucks for hot dogs is a rip off...I don't care how much you squeeze them.

I see Rastelli and Corky are having TSV's in May....wonder what it'll be.....100 dollar hot dogs or 90 dollars for 6 teevee dinners?!?!?!? Can't wait!!! Bring your calculator!!!

And there's NO WAY I beleve any sane person is walking into their sanctified butcher shops and paying those prices for ANY of their products...I don't care how "well" those customers "know their butcher".....

Remember...your local market ( whether Aldi, Walmart, Wegmans, Tops or Whole Foods) also has to refrigerate and ship thier foods......Using Q's cost to ship and keep cold logic, we should all be paying 100 bucks for hot dogs.....

But it's hot dogs from  "Special Cows" and "royal chickens raised in a REALLY special barn in the DelMarVa area ( along with 300,000 other "special chickens" that are butchered each day)....so there's that!!!!

[THEY CallMe Mr Wilkes]

I admire Ray Rastelli's hard work ethic.  

I've purchased a number of different products and have been pleased.

Seems to work harder than Gentleman Farmer Dan.

I totally agree that rastelli is on overload. I'm beginning to think they own QVC because they never leave

Way too many back-to-back Food shows (in general) all day/day(s) long.

Maybe 4 hour shows at a time.  

Jmo. 

[Othereeeen]

There might be a reason for all the food shows.....the stuff comes from the vendor.....thier labor packs it, ships it, makes it....

No inventory costs for Qurate that way. No need for warehouse space and warehouse workers.

Easy to "pull the plug" if the food isn't available or probably in the contract to begin with if it doesn't sell or too many returns or poor reviews....Notice how many people write in here saying thier AutoShip was cancelled?

I can't even recall any more hearing them say "It's in stock ready to ship"....they used to mention this a lot, now I think most of it comes directly from the vendor.

Good idea if times are tough. They do NOT want to be caught again with giant stacks of inventory like in 2022....
