QVC should offer free shipping to compete with amazon and walmart and pretty much everyone else.  At least something like free shipping on all orders over a certain price like all orders over $100 or something.  Or for all purchases made with Qcard.  It is incredibly frustrating if we want to buy multiple products from qvc then there is a shipping charge for each item and it adds up quickly, not to mention it is ridiculous in this day and time.  Give younger viewers an incentive to buy instead of looking elsewhere like temu and tiktok shop, amazon, walmart, etc.  Even unrelated retailers like etsy and chewy and clothing lines offer free shipping with order minimums and incentives.  

 

I know multiple people in my life that simply do not buy items from QVC unless there is free shipping, and even then sometimes they don't because the markdowns go back up on the days free shipping is offered.  It's insane in the day and time.  Right now, there are 9 items I want to buy, and there is NO WAY I'm buying them here with $5.50 shipping on each item added that will probably ship in the same box because they are all the same brand product.  Please care about your customers!

The few names you list are just a grain of salt.  Many places charge way more.  I think people start these posts cuz they want to buy something but don't want to pay S&H squeak squeak.

iI don't think people look to see if a subject has been brought up yet or not. In this case it's brought up daily if not more.

It's tough knowing where and how to stretch our dollar. Or skip spending and save money since interest rates are higher than they have been in years. 

It would be great if QVC offered free shipping always, looks like certain days are offered and that's when it's fun to jump on the wish list.

I hope you don't mind that I added a couple words to your post.

 

I'm old and won't buy from Q if there is a shipping cost. I price shop everything too. I can always find what I want elsewhere for lower prices, real sale prices, promo codes, free shipping and returns.

Only 1 retailer I shop with charges shipping and that's only if the order is under $50.

 

Your comment wasn't necessary though you have the right to posts it.... gee, just like OP had the right to post her opinion. 

 

Some people are dripping money and don't mind the extra cost. Others aren't. It doesn't make them cheap. It makes them smart.

i shop considering the total cost.

 

what label they put on it has zero to do with anything other than ones perception of a deal.
