Q Talk

[anxious1]

Several of the hosts have a very upsetting habit that really annoy me.  Be it clothes or food or anything I often want information on what is presented.  How to prepare, what yhe material is, how to care for it etc.  The host will ask the vender the question I am looking for the answer too and then immediately interrupt the vender with nonsense like what colors are there or how many left in each or a personal story about when they used the item or anything but allowing the vender to answer.  In fact many hosts barely let the vender talk at all. Sometimes I just turn it off see if I can look on Amazon where if they have the item I can get it free shipping and next day.  Could be just me of course but I have learned if those hosts are presenting don't bother to watch.

your complaint is about hosts

your solution is to buy where there are no hosts but has free shipping and next day delivery

ok

99.9% of the time your questions are answered directly on the items website.

What if you don't want to go to the website.  

I agree with the OP that the host often asks a question and I am one of the people looking forward to the answer.  Too much trouble to head for the computer if I'm not sure I'm interested. MIGHT be more interested with more information from the vendor.

It's unfortunate and oh, so unproductive, to suggest a failing company's solution should be to have others shop elsewhere. Seems some customers want to try and continue to support this company. There are brands they like and have bought over the years and hope to continue.

Since the company has been in a downward spiral over the past few years, and in my opinion the behavior of many host have been riding that downward sliding board, I think behavior modification could only improve many viewer's experiences and possibly the company's bottom line.

No one should have to check online for basic information, especially considering how long they drone on over one item.

Back in the day when there were well known vendors using guality natural fabrics, I bought clothing, but now those vendors are gone and everything is polyester.

This is why I rarely buy from Q anymore. I want to see something up close, know the real color/fabric (not a cutsie name), and all the details.

I agree with all but the very first part.

Q did it to themselves. As a retired corporate executive, I can easily see that they made tons of mistakes managing their business. They failed to keep up in so many ways.

I'm sorry Q is failing. That doesn't mean I am required to stick by them or continue buy from them. My wants, needs, and budget come before Q or any huge corporation.

When I see something I like, I go to the website to order the item & look at the description there. I don’t mind idle conversation as it’s hard to talk about one item for a prolonged period of time. The personal stories I can do without & only one person seems to be the offender. I don’t watch QVC too often, only, certain vendors & only clothing. I don’t buy makeup, household or food.

I believe BUTTONS on a cardigan are meant to be USED.    Hosts and models seem to wear sweaters open WIDE because they are wearing a too-small size...
