I don't think the shipping charges from QVC are bad at all - in fact they are reasonable compared to other online vendors who do charge shipping.
It is just the issue of new people getting free shipping, when the rest of us customers who have stuck around through all their problems, have to pay shipping.
While that is not enough for me to cancel my account, if that is even possible, it is enough for me to stop buying from them, for as long as I can hold out. If I hold out long enough, maybe the impulse buying habit will go away. That is what I am hoping for. I don't need a darn thing, but that has not stopped me from buying in the past. Now I have two reasons to not buy.
