VERY boring! Same old stuff!! Computers, tablets, vacuum cleaners makeup/skin care, jewelry! I remember when Q almost never repeated a TSV but now they repeat them a LOT! But, it is summer so now I have a lot more time to get out and enjoy friends and family so thank you QVC!

Perhaps, just perhaps, QVC is in business to make money, and they will continue to show and promote items that are selling as a means to accomplish that goal.

While many people on the boards seem to believe that QVC's primary goal is to entertain us, it is not. Ultimately, sales rather than complaints of a few people on the message boards will determine its business practices.

While KYToby is right, I share your sentiments! Everybody is different, right? Personally, I've always thought it would be great if QVC would broadcast a 2nd QVC channel...devoted solely to fashion.

QVC is making money primarily by raising prices and their shipping ..... it appears their units sold arent that great at QVC USA Division, so perhaps more variety would benefit BOTH QVC and their customers too.....{#emotions_dlg.glare}

I don't watch QVC or any shopping show to be entertained.

I have plenty of activities---people I enjoy, things to do, & places to go.

When I do watch a TV shopping show, I do so in hopes of seeing something that would push my "buy button." Qvc hasn't kept me interested to watch for more than a few minutes of any programming in about a yr.

Thank you, thank you, thank you...

Entertainment aside, perhaps (just perhaps...) it'll one day register that it takes a diversity of merchandise to keep customers SHOPPING and not merely entertained... or not even... as the case may be, or frankly, is...

It's fine to program what sells, but existing customer saturation would indicate they need regularly to find new and different items that also sell. Otherwise, those things that sell eventually stop selling, since there is a finite market of new customers out there... and since customer retention should be part of any successful operation's business practices...

Some people just do not ""get"" that QVC is for selling .... and the Message Boards are for entertainment!

Most week-ends on the Q have become a big snore but this one is unusually bad. I think they must have ordered a boatload (literally) of Orthoheels they're trying to dump. Is there anyone in America who has not seen the Aussie with his magic marker? I though Dell Days last month was bad but it didn't have anything on Wen every 3 or 4 hours for days and days. I'm so sick of that creepy Chaz I could scream. I don't watch any of these but see them as I channel check.

I don't ""get"" why the TSV's have to have hour presentations...every other hour...and then half hour presentations in between....nor do I understand why it takes an hour to explain a bed to us....we all pretty much know what a bed is...and how it works....

computers...I get...there is a lot to explain and tell us about....even the Vitamix...may take a little longer....but most of the rest do not need more then a 30 minute presentation a few times a day....and that is not every other hour.....
