@Tori3569   If you order a decent amount from QVC during the year $140 for s/h would not go very far.  We order a fair amount from Amazon, always quick free shipping and other perks for being a Prime subscriber.  Well worth it to us and something QVC should have done years ago.

@kaydee50  If QVC started charging $140 to shop on their site I would not be shopping here.  If the Q started charging as Amazon does and you have Prime you would be paying $280 just to shop.  No thanks.  As far as I know, Amazon is the only company charging a fee to shop.

We have been Prime members for years.  We get 4 or 5 Amazon deliveries a week.  Clothing, books, toiletries, large planters, food and vitamins. We also purchased large, raised planters delivered right to our backyard .Our membership more than pays for itself.

Just today, my husband got a book and I got a new pair of Sloggers for working in the garden. They were ordered on Tuesday, can't beat it.  It also saves gas since I don't have to run to the store every time we need something.  We do occasionally have a return, but they are easy peasy at our local Whole Foods store.  

Lastly, we use a credit card (I think it's Chase) where we get 5% back on every Amazon and Foods purchase, so it helps overall.

@Biftu   How much do you pay in s/h, returns to shop here?  Just curious.

---

@kaydee50  In over thirty years shopping here I have made maybe two returns.  Not even close to $140 a year in s/h.

So I assume you only shop when there is free shipping--smart move!

Amazon Prime is not $139 a year it's $15.99.

If you had gone online instead of calling and started your return under "returns made easy" you would have received a QR code which functions the same way as Amazon's.   You can then just show it at the UPS store and they address it from there.   I've gotten my refunds within a day under that process.   

Since I assume you're returning them as damaged, you would need to call after the fact to get the shipping fees refunded too. 

Also keep in mind that Amazon Prime is now $139.99 for the year.

@Tori3569,  I save more than that in free books alone.  In addition, free shipping, fast delivery and other Prime perks makes the cost more than reasonable.

@Blondie59  Wow, guess for heavy shoppers like you it may be worth it.  I got a $200 Amazon gift card for Christmas and other than buying batteries and a pair of knitting needles, I've yet to find anything to purchase.

I won't be buying Skechers anymore. Wrong usual size, received in bag & smashed box, returned, and received back taking a month. 

What is happening?

@Pearlsgirls


In December I ordered 4 pairs of sweatpants for my Husband from Amazon.


He really likes them. A couple weeks ago i noticed they were at a lower sale price. so I ordered 3 more pairs. ONLY one pair was Brand New and the other 2 had been used. 😝





I watch Instagram’s Amazon Hauls. One of them showed under cabinet lightening.


Just so happens those type of lights are a TSV today on QVC.



Well I ordered 2 sets of them in Black. One box was Brand New and the other must have been a return, because the holes were already made on the back side of the lights. 🥴




Nope Sorry but Amazon is not that Amazing. 🥴

The Chase deal for 5% back from Amz was only from Apr 1 to June 30, it is not a forever thing, wish it was
