This is a group to share your disappointment or sing the praises of an item or product you have purchased on QVC, HSN or an infomercial.
Is that wonderful kitchen gadget being utilized or collecting dust in a cabinet? Did you have to return the item or use a warranty? Any tools you thought looked wonderful during the demonstration and then bombed at home or in the garage?
Any holiday gifts or food items purchased, was the recipient happy with their trinket, jewelry look as nice as on the screen? Did you ever get to speak on air about a product? Do you think the before and after shots look good and are accurate?
Did you use auto ship and then cancel future shipments due to not liking the product? Have you sold the piece of junk on ebay or regifted it to someone else?
Come share your trials and tribulations relating to 24-hour shopping and obtaining As Seen on TV products and how they compare to the demonstration on television.
I have purchased some cosmetic brands to test them out and see their ingredients. I bought a power tool that I am clueless in using, but it seemed like a good deal and I need to get a handyman, so at least I have the tools.
I bought a painting kit that made it look much easier to paint without the mess of newspapers, now I just need to get it out of the closet and make sure it was a good find.
What about the food they sell, like hotdogs and diet foods? Anyone try these out and what is the feedback?
Feel free to post on topic about the products you purchased, the hosts you like, which show you view and which brands and shows you subscribe to. I get notifications for Serious Skin Care on HSN and Jonathan on QVC.
I use the online sites to order and have been satisfied with all my purchases - well the ones I have actually used that is. I did send some shoes back that I ordered the wrong size and it was really easy to follow the directions and I got my money back.

I have never bought anything from any of these TV sites and I probably never will. They have an annoying demeanor that reminds me of the old snake oil salesman from before even I was born (OK, movies that depicted them). I actually tried once when I saw an item that was reasonably priced until I got a whiff of their "shipping and handling" fee that put it well over my corner store.
Nevertheless, I accepted your invitation, in part out of curiosity as to what people's experiences have been and in part simply because you asked. Maybe I'll have something to say.
Thanks for the invitation.
Can I post questions to this group if I see a product and want to know if any one has tried it?
Thanks for joining and asking specifics.
