Maybe it's what's I see, but the Q really likes that 50 to 59 dollar price point. There must be some mathematical profit coming off that price point lol.

I don't shop the Q. It just doesn't impress me much. I do better and stay in budget in a store. Touch it, try it, and can see it. That shipping charge is just too much.
I'm a simplest and more and more I buy less and less. Haven't hit the minimalist state yet but it could be near. I'm into saving and buyingbonky what I need.

@kaydee50  I agree, laughable. Amy says this a lot when presenting Logo. I'd never pay these prices, even on sale they are way above my budget

So far I have had good luck with "as is" purchases. Needed a few fall tops and found some Quacker Factory that arrived perfectly in the original packaging.  I would have never paid the full price for them. Often the size M are sold out but I was fortunate to find these.

I agree the clothes prices are getting way too high. They are more in the $60s than $50s and I thought $50s was too high. I have bought items in that ridiculous range because I really wanted it. I have passed on much, much more because it was too high that I only so-so wantes. People are still buying, including me, so it must be working. The shirt I got this week I haven't tried on yet. If I saw it in the store would I have paid that price? No. Will I return it? Probably not due to hassle/shipping cost. Will it prevent me from impulse shopping a $60s or higher shirt in the future? Yes. Will I stop buying clothes altogether from Q? No.

In my opinion, yes - many of the prices are very high on QVC for clothing.  I have still however continued to purchase items, but try to get them when the price is reduced.  Also, I have cut back on my purchases. 

 

In my experience, the quality of QVC clothing has always been exceptional, so I always do keep that in consideration.  I have LOTS of clothes so I do not wear any one piece over and over.  I have some pieces of QVC clothing (Fashion Formula, Sports Savvy, Denim & Co., etc.) that are over 20 years old and I'm still wearing them as they still look great - no fading, seams have not broken, etc.   


Me too. I have many Denim & Co. tops that must be 20 years old and look new. My secret is change when you get home. I designate things for home wear. Spaghetti sauce and salad dressing are the worst. I think they are well made. Pants too.

I watch for entertainment when bored.  Qvc merchandise can be purchased elsewhere for 1/3 the price.

I think years ago the clothing on QVC was exceptional with lines by Linea, Dialogue, Simonton, etc. Now not so much. I can get the same at Kohl's.

I have a couple of Kim Gravel tops that I bought last year. I absolutely love them, they are feminine, and I feel good when I wear them. However, even though I see a couple more that I really really want, her prices are way too high now. 60+ dollars is too much for a rayon span top. With the economy the way it is, I just can't justify it. Hopefully they will go down in price eventually.

I recently wanted a dressy blouse or jacket for a wedding. I went to a very large mall and went in every single store (about 25) and found nothing. I decided to go to Marshall’s and was thrilled to find the perfect blouse on clearance for $10. I can’t wait to go back there!!

A pair of Cuddl Duds p.j.'s on "sale" for $50? 😂😂😂😂. Just because you say it's on sale clearly doesn't mean much. Q shoppers need to start doing comparison shopping online. You're overpaying for so so much. I've quit the Q. No longer makes any sense. And charging for returns is just unheard of for most retail stores online. Get smart!
