Could the location of where items are made be included in presentations.  I would like to purchase items made in the USA as much as possible

Re: Made in the USA Items

I agree, but the problem is that QVC doesn't carry many items made in the USA, items from China and Asian countries are cheaper and provide a higher profit.

 

I agree that that needs to change!

 

BTW: Welcome to the QVC playground!

@Anonymous032819 Yes.  Here we go again.  It is nice to see that people are interested in seeking out USA made products!  

 

Get better products, get more people employed here, have a better future for lots of people.  Every little bit helps.

Made in the U.S.A. does not = better made.

 

 

We can just as easily make krap here too.

@Anonymous032819 Very true but I'd rather take my chances on an American made product than the imported stuff.

There's no reason for them to do that.  If you go online, you can see for yourself is something is made in the USA.  Most shoppers today understand that made iin the USA says nothing about quality and they understand that world economies are linked and intertwined.  Many made in the USA items are made in factories there owned by foreign companies.  Some made in the USA items are really just assembled in the USA by parts that were made in other countries.  There American companies that manufacture in other countries but every other part of the business is here.  Also, the USA sells in other countries.  So, we certainly would not want other countries deciding to buy local.  It's all complicated now because the world isn't what it was in 1970.

Clearing out closets and also organizing.  Most of everything I own is made in China. 

 

Here is my issue.  I  feel that it is QVC's choice what to sell and where to get it.  

 

BUT THERE IS NEVER A MENTION OF WHERE THE ITEM WAS PRODUCED. On air or online.  

 

I WANT TO KNOW... MY CHOICE what to buy and where from.  Simple courtesy.

@pdsuz    This subject has been discussed extensively here.  Here's a link to a recent discussion which may explain some of the issues.

I find it interesting that these new posters keep popping up when registered years ago and it's always a topic to create controversy.
