Yep. I bought a pair of Hotter shoes from TK a couple of years ago and they were the most comfortable pair of everyday shoes I ever had. I see Hotter shoes in there now and again but have never found the exact same pair again. I think TK must sell Hotter discontinued styles or end of lines.
Yes, except when it's Butler & Wilson, nothing would induce me to buy crystal skull rings/brooches/bangles .......An awful (emphasis on awful) lot of the free p&P jewellery is B&W tat.
I think I read that the founder sold vionic a few years ago.
As terrible as it is that the founder was murdered I don't see why the person who bought it out should forfeit their plans for the TSV.
Maybe nothing has been mentioned because of the murder investigation because they are following advice.
for all we know, they may have been told/advised/made a decision not to mention it so they don't do or say anything to put the case at risk.
These shoes do interest me but not enough to buy until I can try some on. I'm really struggling with shoes since my back operation and can't wait to get into some summer sandles

Just flicked over to see Cathy Kangas explain that Prai don't test ingredients or finished products on animals, but when she said "that's why we won't sell in China, because if you sell in China, you test on animals" Julia's face looked like thunder...........what's up Julia, truth hurt?
It may hurt their commission a bit
they work on commission?
I don't think the presenters are on commission but they are definitely monitered by the amount of sales in the hours that they present, I'm sure I heard Debbie Flint say that she tried to use this to her advantage when she was trying to get back with QVC as they always had high sales figures in her hours.
How on earth JF would fare if she was given rubbish products (is this why Julian went?) I don't know, they always give her hours where the products 'sell themselves' like beauty products or Kipling!

Founders day is a bit of a con methinks. The free P&P is only for things that have been on air, not for everything as I had thought. Also, as I was looking at the plants this morning the prices seemed to be strangely inflated. £47 for two hanging baskets?? You can get them from Jersey Plants Direct for £23 for two and they have a huge choice, plus free P&P. QVC were giving us free P&P for very expensive plants so you weren't really getting a bargain.
Very sad news about the Vionic chap - RIP.

Straight commission would seem very unfair because as you say some items sell themselves e.g. an Elemis TSV launch whereas flogging some dodgy kitchen gadget in the middle of the day would be much harder. I would imagine they work to targets though but maybe based on the product type, day of the week, time of day etc..
