I ordered something here on the 16th, it shipped the next day and I received it yesterday! I really don't need it for Chirstmas. Of course if I did then it would be delayed.
ETA: I just ordered an extra tablecloth and a set of snack tables from Amazon with delivery for Saturday.....fingers crossed they arrive on time!

A lot depends on how it was shipped. Parcel post mail sits until the post office has time to handle it. A lot of parcel post relies on non-USPS shippers and they aren't making trips if it's not profitable. 1st Class and Priority move faster.
IMHO, everything ordered from Q after Dec 1st may or may not arrive before Christmas...no matter what Q says.

Yes, I find the same shipping delay issue. One of the main reasons I no longer buy from this site.

@santorini yes so much for the "guarantee ". I should know better though to not excpect to get delivery in time for Christmas and order knowing that . Right now have a piece of jewelry I wanted to gift to a good friend it shipped last a Tuesday and I see tracking says it will arrive Saturday the 28th! Will see her in the 27th so much for that gift !

Perhaps your items are vendor shipped. There have been delays.

@Kachina624 No they are not vendor items . It's mostly from looking at tracking just either sitting to be picked up by UPS and then sit in Ohio or Pa. for days it seems or doesn't show anything from shipping to out for delivery . I really don't understand the "guarantee " delivery every Christmas season because it is mostly not accurate . I very much dislike having to get back up gifts just in case !

@Kitty Galore. It's stupid of QVC to say "guaranteed delivery" when everyone knows once it leaves their hands, QVC has no control over it's transport.
I checked today and my TSV "guaranteed" video camera that was to be delivered today, won't arrive until January 3rd. Not a gift so no big deal but aggravating.

But the Q’s guarantee is no different than Amazon’s PRIME Delivery for items (that you pay extra for) that don’t show up for days. 🥴
For those that don’t know Prime is NEXT DAY Delivery.
AND Amazon is actually making money for something that they really can’t guarantee. 🤷🏻♀️
@RescueLover Prime has really gone downhill lately.
