Yankee Candle TSV 11/11/24

[Mazza]

Yes mine was delivered by Evri but I didn’t get a despatch message with a link to the tracking. I did order early, the 9.00 show before actual TSV day.

Thank you. Rang QVC this afternoon and they said it could be anytime up to next Monday! At least I know what time my Evri guy usually comes but it is annoying that there is no tracking info.

I had exactly the same experience as Mazza - I ordered in the 9 o 'clock show but I didn't receive any tracking or despatch info. In fact when Evri delivered I had been expecting a parcel (not via QVC) and was surprised to receive two boxes. I also didn't receive the usual "how do you rate courier" text after delivery, only for the one parcel. In my post above I mentioned they didnt come direct from yankee but what seems to be their distributor - maybe they have to sort their delivery process out . I hope you receive yours ok

I get really annoyed that QVC charge high p&p for products and then don’t give you tracking details. Or charge you £2.99, send by post in a small Jiffy bag, that’s probably the cost of a first class stamp.

Q are always moving with the times, aren’t they?
Tracked deliveries, p&p on a basket of goods rather than per item. Oh wait… it was just a dream. As you were.

aint going to happen cause remember when they tried next day delivery that messed up them & the warehouse big time so it dont work for them

I get peeved having to pay high P&P and then the packaging is rubbish. I bought a ring once and it arrived in an envelope and the ring was just in one of those little plastic bags you might get buttons in. What if it was for a gift? You'd expect it to be in a ring box at least.

I remember one of the presenters a few years back saying they only now use boxes for rings over I think it was £25? The last Diamonique ring I bought was in a flat pack thing. It was under £20, but was on clearance and had been over £30.

 

[maymorganlondon]

I don't believe the p&p has any relation to the size, weight, fragility, or value of the item.
I think it has more to do with Q maintaining their margin on goods sold. I think that's also why they will remain glued to the p&p per item rather than per basket.
In many cases, they seem to choose the most basic services from their delivery agents, when we know those agents do offer tracked delivery, and sometimes even timeslots.

 

[donna255]

I know from ordering from different websites and even eBay, I get tracking from Evri and even Royal Mail. Okay it is basic, but we will or hope to deliver your parcel on X day between usually 11 am - 1 or 2 pm, and it arrives between those times.

I bought an Emma Hardie face mask from Sephora with 30% off so £30, and I have tracking supplied and free shipping.

I had the same with a £30 ring in a tiny ziplock bag, inside a bog standard envelope.. It seems to be a bit hit and miss. £12 earrings in a proper earring box and £30 earrings in a polythene bag in a Jiffy bag.

I know this may be a bit random but I bought a candle from Aldi the other day, it's Sweet Almond and Macaroon, their hotel collection. Matt white glass container with a rose gold metal lid. £3.99 They had different smells. Lit last night, pooled great, the throw was really good. I will certainly repurchase, bargain! (I'm always wary of cheap candles but am really impressed with this candle).

I totally agree Cashers, I buy regularly. Their Reed diffusers are also good value, (and the refills even better) - the hotel collection usually have stylish containers and the fragrance lasts well. The only downside is they change the range regularly so if you find something you really like stock up

I saw a bit of Craig today with various presenters and he was acting like a complete nob. I turned it all off. I'm getting a bit fed up of all the faux hilarity and shrieking and mucking about. Just tell me about the product, you don't need to sing to me.

Craig has always done the silly singing clown routine, in between his part time role as air-traffic controller.

He can be an excellent presenter but not often enough.

Mine arrived Wednesday 20th too. Lucky that I was in as no tracking available and I was fed up of waiting in for it to turn up.

You read my mind Mollie! They don't stock them regularly in my local Aldi, I'm going to pop in tomorrow and buy a few more - might even try different scents! Really impressed.

I ordered mine at 9 oclock. No despatch notice and Evri delivered it on the Thursday, I was really surprised it came so quickly,

Any excuse is a good one! I dropped a friend for a hospital appointment today and by making a small detour on the way home managed to visit Aldi - that's my excuse . I like quite strong fragrances and bought an Oud and bergamot from the range yours is from. The other thing I like about their candles is they burn right down - I get fed up with the waste of product so many brands leave at the bottom of their jars!

I'm on to another visit Sunday! I will hopefully get the Oud one, sounds good! I will stock up I think, such a good buy! Thanks Mollie for your input.
