I’m wondering has anyone ordered from the UK?
If so what was the process like? Expense? Shipping?

We were there in March and it did not come up on the TV in the room, but got it on my ipad.  Was fun to see but I didn't order anything.

@LLLSSS.  As I recall you cannot order from QVC UK.  The won't ship overseas.

I used to visit UK every year and would order from the QVC UK online site .I liked Liz Earle . skin care and Easio Yoghurts , as well as some clothes .I find the uk tv shows with QVC are more professional [you do not see the hosts with papers in hand , you do not see cameras popping into view , ] and hosts are quieter , not as much talking loud and fast

@Liverbird1 - I lived in England for 20 years and used to order from QVC there.  I agree with everything you said about the hosts and the presentations.  TBH, I was a bit shocked, when I moved back to the States and watched QVC U.S., with the exception of few of the older hosts like Mary Beth Roe, Pat, Jayne Brown, etc.

 

The other thing was that the camera work in the U.K. was far superior.  You always got great close-up shots of jewelry, in particular, so you knew exactly what you were ordering.  I do know that it was mentioned on air more than once, that QVC U.S. tried to hire some of the U.K.'s camera men and women.

 

And interesting nic - do you have a connection with Liverpool?

 

And did you know that Liz Earle ships free to the U.S. from their own website?

 

@LLLSSS - You'd have to get someone you know in England to order for you and ship to you.  It would not be inexpensive!  I have friends from there who visit me each year, so they can bring me whatever I want.  But I don't bother with much now, even though there are brands from there that I still prefer.
