Shipping is unbelievably s l o w

I placed an order (for a diamonique ring) on 8/30.  Today, 4 days later (9/3) they email me to tell me it won't be delivered for 6 more days (9/9).

 

REALLY?  They've had an apology on their website about slow shipping for quite a while.  How long does it take to fix a problem?  It's ridiculous!!!

@KrissyE  That's true.  But that was just one example of how unbelievably slow their shipping often is.

To me, that seems to be entirely within the realm of reason.  I certainly wouldn't consider it to be "unbelievably slow"

Re: Shipping is unbelievably s l o w

When I see these posts I must be lucky as my Q orders get here quickly.  Sometimes within days of ordering - either way it's always within a week from order date.  

 

I guess it depends if from Q warehouse or vendor. I'm never in need of the item quickly when I order from Q or other retailers.

I agree. My orders have rarely been less than seven day arrivals. I think it got worse, I remember about 12-15 yrs ago occasionally getting things in 3-5 days but mostly not. (Jewelry and Bare Escentual orders seemed to come the quickest years ago). Shopping many many years with the Q.

Re: Shipping is unbelievably s l o w

I agree. I wish we could get denim and Co and Quacker through Amazon!  Often my orders there arrive the next day. 
Maybe QVC should try QVC Prime like Amazon. Instead we pay for shipping on each product and get them in a week or in many cases longer. 
I am very frustrated with that.
As I posted a week or so ago, I got food shipped late and it contained eggs and was leaking in the box.
Even the Customer Care person I talked to was horrified. She said "DO NOT EAT THAT!" LOL  She understood, which I appreciated.
But the shipping here is a serious problem compared to Amazon, Target, Home Depot and even Hay Needle all of which I have used recently. I really wish they would fix it.
Certainly not dependable like QVC shipping used to be.
