Yes, it's happened to me. Several times. I keep my eyes open as sometimes the price will come down again but if it doesn't I won't buy.
That's disgraceful. Shame on QVC.
On-demand pricing, just like Oasis and airline tickets etc.
As I said recently on another thread, I watched an 8 minute presentation about some lights, they kept saying they were £18 for 2, but when I tried to buy them, they were £25
I think the thread I started was called "Big Deal - NOT".
I've never heard of this or noticed it. I'm going to be really careful in future.
. Needless to say had to start searching again...Years ago, when I used to buy from Gemporia and occasionally Q, I used to always take screen shots, and include the item number in the screen shot. I wanted it to be clear it was the specific item number I'd ordered, as I didn't want to be palmed off with anyone saying what I'd received was actually what I'd ordered from on-screen under a different item number.
I got an insurance quote on-line yesterday. Re-visited the site today to check a few details - I changed nothing - and the price had gone up by over £40. So they can stuff that where the sun don't shine.I've never heard of this or noticed it. I'm going to be really careful in future.
On a different note, I was booking hotel rooms at work the other day (we have an approved list and have a limit we can spend). I found something suitable but had to go to a meeting. Went back to book it an hour later and it was about £60 a night dearer
I always haggle my insurance quotes. I tell them I am leaving for a better quote. They either match it, go lower or offer something in kind, like free key protection. I think the quote is a starting point for a negotiation. They give in because the know I can go elsewhere, same with gas and electric and broadband.
