Suggestion Box

[MaureenB]

QVC used to be comfortable.  A host I was at ease with and trusted her or his

opinion.  Now I can't find my beloved old hosts.   And who are these models?  

I can't find my favorite models.  What the hell is going on???  There seems

to be such less professionalism.  The hosts stand there and eat an entire plate

of whatever they are selling.  What is that???   Is everyone starving.

Since this major change I am not watching and I am not purchasing.  I do not

feel at home with this new change.  And its been awhile.  I do not ffeel good

watching anymore. 

I am going to Target now.

Please read this and take it seriously!!!

@MaureenB   Right there with ya.....however, I find it quite refreshing that my television doesn't 'live' on QVC anymore.  I've also noticed the starved hosts in their presentations....hilarious !  I saw one on last Sunday during the Vitamix show and she ate that bowl of soup continuously...for the whole show...like she hadn't had a meal in ages! I've tried to contribute my lack of interest due to me getting older and can't ''relate'' as well to these new young ''greenhorns''....but nothing doing...still not watching...thing of the past I guess.  Fun while it lasted though !

@MaureenB  Hosts or models do not change the products being sold in any way!!  It's cutting off your nose to spite your face - well it's a good choice for you since you are so uncomfortable watching and buying from QVC.   I don't care what host or model is on tv, it's the great products that I can buy here that matter! It sounds like you were shopping here for the wrong reasons anyway.

Target has some nice stuff, have to look but it's there

and sale racks,  take a look

There is turnover in every business, and QVC is no different.  The new hosts will only be "new" for awhile.  Give them a chance and you will soon become used to them.  If you still don't like them, turn the channel.  Either don't shop at the Q because you don't like the changes, or only shop online. 

Nobody is being held hostage to work at the Q or to shop at the Q.  We all have choices in our lives.  Try not to stress over the small stuff.

I agree that the comfort QVC gave is changing.  Some of the hosts became familiar.  Even if I wasn't shopping I could turn on Q and just listen.  But the sales pitch wasn't so heavy in those days.  Q had more of a conversational style.  The new hosts are still getting their legs under them--but I find it hard to listen to most of them for any period of time.  Some try to hard, talk too loud, act too silly, care too much about telling their own story, etc....

 I mostly look online now to see if there's anything of interest.  

Maybe it's a sign of my age (60) but I tend to like the older hosts more--although I do think of all the new ones Ali Carr is the most polished.  Her voice is soothing and her style measured.

I loved Elise on the Beauty channel of Q...but now that's gone.

The last person's opinion I would trust is one who is trying to make a sale. The host's are not friends, and only care about $$.

Hosts leave and need replaced and more for a second channel.  They will become seasoned and familiar like the older ones.  

As for the models, there's been a huge change.  The newer ones resemble gals I see walking down the street rather than the professional model we have become accustomed to over the years.  I guess it's the look QVC wants.
