I ordered a pair of Clarks shoes a few weeks ago.  In the past the shoes were in a shoe box, then that shoe box was put in a cardboard shipping box  My last order was sent in a plastic bag.  Shoe box was inside but crushed..  Luckily shoes were not damaged.  Guess its cheaper for them to send bags than boxes,

@Catch71   My last pair was sent that way also, but the shoes were not crushed.

I just got a pair of Spenco sandles which came in a plastic bag.  Not a problem with the sandle.  Maybe they are trying to save on shipping and landfill waste.  I do think though that some shoes would need to be in a box to prevent crushing.

Yes, some shoes, expensive handbags, molded bras shouldn't be in crushable plastic bags. 

 

Lucky they didn't stuff it into your mail slot.

I would not like it if shoes I ordered online didn’t ship in a shoe box. I guess it’s good I don’t buy shoes online very often.

Yes, I have sometimes received them in a plastic bag, too.

 

Lately my purchases are arriving in plain white bags; no QVC logo on them or self-stick ability to return an item.  I assume it's a cost-cutting measure.

The shoes themselves WERE in a shoebox.  But the shoes in the shoebox were then placed in a plastic mailing bag to send instead of in a mailing box.

Had a pair of boots sent to me that way from HSN but never from QVC.  Called CS and they apologized, no explanation but did inquire as to if they were damaged, which they were not.
