Not just the boredom of what's on air, but the cost of their "service" given the time it takes to actually receive your product are a big issue. To my mind, £4.95 P&P is next day service, not a week's wait. And, as we know, they are the only retailer I can think of who charge P&P per item instead of per order. Other than simple greed, why? Have they ever explained it? And don't get me started on Richard Jackson. It used to be seasonal, then he started cropping up (ha!) all year round, now we're at the point where there is a TSV every couple of weeks and shows last for hours at a time. It makes me wonder why QVC's planners think anyone would be interested in that, even the dyed in the wool gardeners. I mentioned about his TSVs in a thread recently, now there's another one on Wednesday! too much, too soon.
I am confined to home a lot, due to poor health, as are many in the UK. It's a shame QVC can't value their customers more as I know I'd spend more with them if it was worth my while, which it no longer is. I hate watching now as all I can do is look in. I simply won't pay their prices, even on the rare occasion I see something I actually like!
