First thing this morning I checked on a few jewelry items I've had my eye on. A Linea Rolling Bangle in black was still at $26 + some cents - regular merchandise, not "As Is". It's been that price for numerous weeks. When I saw FREE Shipping, I decided it was time to buy. Imagine my surprise when Q had jacked the price up to $43.00 + some cents!!!!!
Seriously?!??! I am so sick of their pricing games. Needless to say, I have not parted with my money! UGH!!!

All retailers play pricing games. QVC is no different than department stores and other TV sellers. Amazon is the worst with prices constantly up and down.

It must depend upon the items. Several times over the years there have been items that I have been interested in and I would write the price down. I was convinced that when free shipping would be offered that the price would increase. To my surprise I have not ran into that situation. The price has always remained the same so I have moved forward with the purchase.
Sorry that you could not get your item.

@rae smith It happened to me too. (Not the first time.) A Temp-tations baker I had in my wish list went from $24.00 to $30.00. Not going to bite on this one.

@PA Mom-mom , same thing happened to me with Temp-tations. Mine was a salt and pepper shaker set. It was $11.99 before free s&h, then on a free s&h day, the price was $15.99! Really???

Same thing happened to me. This morning as soon I ordered a set of 2 Skinny Tees and as soon as the free s&h hit, I cancelled and went to reorder and the price went UP and it would cost me more to order with the free S&H. I called and she adjusted the price but still it's wrong.

I noticed that too. But QVC is not the only ones to do this. I had my eye on some furniture. Waiting for sales. The store would have 3 or 4 different sales/promotions but when added all up, it still came out the same.

I have noticed the increase of the item price when free shipping is available. Most times the price increased $3.50, exactly the amount of shipping. If that is the only increase, I will buy it because if I have to return it, I am only stuck with return shipping and get a credit for the full price paid (since shipping wasn't separate).

@BARO Good point!
