I agree!  It's the same every year.  More variety woiild be nice.  Not everyone is interesred in electronics.  How about some jewelry?  It's always a nice gift and lasts forever, unlike electronics that will break and be obsolete in no time.

And... if you're buying them here, they might already be obsolete... Not known for selling the latest and greatest... 

 

As for the programming, no bonus points for even looking. Having been around the Q block I can tell you there's no way this leopard is ever going to change its spots... Repetiton and overkill is their claim to fame...

@stevieb   I agree and they were going on and on about the i5 processor.  I bought a computer 8 years ago with a intel i5 processor , so it is not the latest.  I used to get good ideas,  but not this year.  The Jam ear buds. I bought 3 pair but that is about it.   I did buy them last year,  and I have to say they are a good buy and the sound is great. 

 

I started shopping more from Amazon,  Q needs to step up the shipping.  Sitting in process for days is crazy when everyone else ships fast.

Kind of a shame what's happened to the Q over the last 5 years.    I have insomnia, so if you think the programming is bad during the day, you should see what's on after 2 in the morning.   QVC is a billion dollar industry with probably tens of thousands of items to sell but it's the same rotation of maybe 25 to 40 items.  I'm saving a fortune.  It's so true also about the outdated electronics.  Sad.

Just HORRIBLE..... everytime I click on I click off....Same for HSN. I can not imagine they are pulling in the first time buyers with such awful presentations.

@BalletBabe I was going to mention that there are various 'generations' of processors... Either way though, it seems historically accurate that they aren't always selling 'current' technology... I was looking at an Apple, but it appears they're selling the last operating system and not the current one... It's not a huge deal because it's a free upgrade but that really isn't the point... Add to all that the horror stories I've read about excessive wait times and problems with either them or the manufacturer 'standing behind' the products and it makes me shy away from major technology purchases.

And, yet, every year I wonder the same thing voiced by many in this thread.

 

With thousands of items available, why beat the same drum over and over for a handful of products?

 

It simply defies understanding.

 

Not a problem for me.  I don't watch or buy.
