Oh no!!!!  HSN has such great deals, coupons, shipping, etc. Hope it stays the same!

 

Also, like many of their lines of clothing and accessories!

I hope HSN stays the same too.  I love their prices.  They have the best clearance prices.  However I have always heard they were affiliated with Q.  Not sure if this is true.

I heard that this morning. I didn't know they already owned stock in HSN.

I thought that QVC's parent company owned some of their stock already. I know they've talked about buying HSN for years. Also thought QVC bought Zulilly too.

Google it. The parent company that owns QVC already owned stock in HSN and has now purchased more stock. The article I read doesn't say if it now has a controlling interest -or if they are planning to take over control of HSN.

Liberty InterActive, which owns QVC, already owned 38% of HSN and bought the remaining 62%.   Mike George, the CEO of QVC will also be the CEO of HSN.
