I'd rather have only 6 tealights in each collection and have them boxed. I think they look a bit 'cheap' when they come plastic wrapped to be honest.
Oh, and I hate that Prices candles are now coloured. I much preferred it when they were all white, so for those reasons, I won't be getting this TSV.

 

[iloveshopping]

I want these; I have no need of them as I still have tons of Yankee tarts and 2 candles

 

[Glittergirl]

I buy Prices Candles and they are very good value and last well! :mysmilie_59:

 

[boffy]

i really enjoy them and the fragances are more grown up than yankees

These look nice, and I appreciate they are candles and therefore not that light to post but £6 postage seems a lot for an under £20 tsv

 

[Mia56]

High P&P again......

 

[SUPERCOOLWILLOW]

for 5 jars that postage aint bad as they are thick glass from what i remember

 

[Ellaaa]

There's no way you'd have to pay £6 p&p from any other retailer.

Probably why the p&p is so expensive, as they want to 'fool' the purchaser into thinking that they have a 'bargin' at under £20. Though to be fair, how much are yankee p&p, tis probably comparable. But I will stick with the sales 'spiel' in that the presenters can state that the TSV is under £20 (good sales pitch, you have to admit).

 

[whitesnake]

I got a Prices TSV similar to this a few years ago and most of the fragrances absolutely stank. Maybe they were ones made exclusively for QVC though because l have bought Prices candles from the High Street and they have been very nice.

Cheese and Sleaze

I know some may think of Charlie Brook as one of the 'better' presenters (though saying that there is hardly much in the way of competition), but after watching snippets of the aforementioned show, I am starting to wonder how he gets away with what he does. I don't know whether he knew the guest prior to the show on a 'personal' (not that personal obviously I know he has a partner (not a wife you understand a partner)), but about 45 minutes into the show, he put his hand on her knee, it was a definite act as he had to stretch over, so there was no chance of it being accidental, I know there has to be banter between guests (and Charlie is full of it (banter I mean), but this to me seemed to step over the 'invisible line' of what is acceptable. I don't know whether it is me being oversensitive as I know his general manner is general 'cheese' but this to me seemed to go into the 'sleaze' category. I apologise if people think I am being over-sensitive, but it just felt like a 70's office moment!

 

[boffy]

its too dear the p&p by at least a £1 but thats qvc postage always suprisingly overpriced

 

[Mia56]

I don't know why they don't review the P&P. I lived in the US for 6 months a year until last year and QVC reviewed their P&P t.o make it cheaper. They said that they had negative feedback. It's now structured like Ideal World. Makes a big difference If Amazon can do it so cheaply why can't Q

 

[Mia56]

If you want the glass jars but not tea lights there are 6 glass jars for £17.45 free P&P on Amazon

I thought this review/comparison was interesting though the expert only compared 2 of the candles at the beginning of the article

its too dear the p&p by at least a £1 but thats qvc postage always suprisingly overpriced

Is this QVC's equivalent of John Lewis's "Never knowingly undersold"? I like it!
