I have no qualms paying a premium to try a skincare range in the knowledge that, should it not work/agree with me, I can return it. This is the main reason I purchase skincare from the Q. This is a new Danish brand to the UK, but has had an excellent write up in Harpers Bazaar. Anyway, as with any product on the Q, I always research it on the net for availability, pricing, opinions, etc. The below 10 degrees cream is on Tromborg's official website, priced at 580 Danish krone, compared with £80 at QVC. Now, not many of us will be au fait with the conversion rate of the krone, so just out of interest 580 DKK equals £64.43!
When will QVC realise that their customers are not spendthrifts and, simultaneously, ignorant when it comes to handing over their hard earned? I for one, am not in the habit of paying more for an item, if it selling cheaper elsewhere, be that in this country or not.
 
I never buy from QVC now as everything they sell can be had cheaper elsewhere. I accept the MBG is useful but I'm still not going to pay massively over the odds just for that. Classic example is Argan Oil - QVC's price is enormously inflated compared to pretty much every other supplier. I buy from Billy in the Tree and it's the same first cold press etc.
 
Hi,
I've just started my first bottle of Billy the Tree (amazon.co.uk) and am very impressed with the quality. And the price. I floundered around for years looking for products that really worked for me, and now suddenly, in the last 12 months, I'm finding that they are coming thick and fast!
 
Saw the same cream in Debenhams today, £75. I hadnt seen it online in debenhams before, was surprised to see it in the shop today
