QVC how can you allow this? - Page 3

Reviews aren't worth the paper they're printed on. LOL Even when they actually bought it, I wonder if they bought the same thing I did. I do skim them, but I don't totally rely on them.

I do read reviews on items I am considering purchasing. I also do not think it is appropriate for reviews to be published if the reviewer has not owned the item.

When I read reviews I read the "rating from low to high". I screen them pretty carefully because I realize some low ratings are not relative to the quality of the item/product more so the user/buyer frustrations on other issues.

Why should you have to buy something to have an opinion about it. I may see something on TV and think it's ugly and will say so or I may have bought something similar from somewhere else or even the same item from somewhere else at a cheaper price and may say so. I frequently see shoes that were sold on QVC originally at other retailers. If I try them on or see them at a cheaper price, I may let others know. I don't give QVC reviews on their product page though, I only state my opinion here on the boards. I also don't post comments on QVC's fb page either.

Oh, I see this with recipe reviews too! They give the recipe 5 stars, then go on to say "this looks delicious, I can't wait to try it!".

Because a "review" should be someone's actual experience with the product, not how they imagine it.

I agree!!

I'm kinda surprised at this from QVC. Isn't there a box to check, if you have purchased it? I tried to submit a review on an item I purchased, but not from QVC, it wasn't accepted.

I can't believe it either. I read one review where one star was given because the Q did not carry the shoe in her size in a wide. Duh

@Caaareful Shopper I was gonna say that...

Or you're reading a review and realize they are reviewing a completely different product. This is why when I do reviews, I try to do pictures, and include details like which color or size I purchased, if it's clothes I'm specific about my body type/size, etc etc.
