Snark away about any shopping show you’d like. My Pillow is frequently on QVC. but he would never get away with saying that it cures fibromyalgia in the states. Wow, the guy has some nuts. Or he is nuts.
I’m going with nuts. That guy is squirrely as fuck. Not shocked to hear he would make unsubstantiated medical claims outright. But yeah, if he did that here in the States, even on QVC they’d throw him off camera faster than a sold out Giggly bag. :eek:
Welcome to the thread, Athabasca. Does MyPillow guy happen to be Canadian? Can you keep him there?
Speaking of Federal regulations, Kirsten was wearing perfectly a reasonable workout outfit for her Body Blade presentation today, instead of her pube pants that are one wrong move away from showing us her vaj piercings. Did she get a clue? Memo? FCC fine? Lol
Hi all, glad to see you’re all carrying on (both meanings :)) over here. I don’t have any snark this morning but due to a Christmas cold, I was up and down all night and I heard not one but two callers call in twice about the camera. And on the second call make no mention that they had called a few hours earlier. Fakes? Q so desperate for positive feedback they don’t care? Between the fake value pricing, the obsolete items, the upgrades that aren’t really upgrades, referring to the item price by only one installment of five or six easy pays–somebody better be a really savvy shopper before pulling the trigger on a Q item. Okay, somebody will come along with something funny to say. Sorry it wasn’t me blame the cold.
Honey, Beauty Taint, thanks for the welcome! Will observe the Shopping Channel heresies from the far and furry North,
In snark,
A.
Ha ha anybody see DV presenting Flashpad right now? He was under the high score by hundreds of points and I guess his ego couldn’t take it–he said it’s hard to play in low light. Huh? Isn’t it backlit?
Unless the backlighting is adjustable, it might be too bright for a dimly lit room. Or a dimly lit host.
Yes, I’m sure in all fairness ambient lighting probably does actually make a difference, but I just chuckled at his need to mention it.
What is going on at the Q? They seriously have like 25 products and they just keep showing them over and over. Clarisonic, fleece sheets, air humidifiers, electronics, crap kids toys… I don’t remember it being so repetitious in past years. And then they spend hours on the TSV. Arghhh
I was stupid enough to buy a My Pillow and discovered it’s the worse pillow I’ve ever had. It was shipped in a tiny box, similar to one of those shipping tubes you put posters in, except it was square. The pillow was rolled flat, and didn’t look anything like a pillow. The insert said to put it into a dryer to fluff it up, so that’s what I did. When I pulled it out, it seemed as if it was filled with hard popcorn. Seriously, it was nothing but small, hard lumps. Of course, it went back.
For someone who’s supposedly stalked, Lisa sure puts a lot of personal information on line. I can’t believe she actually posted a photo of the exterior of her house! Is she an idiot? But we all know for sure she’s a narcissist, with all the photos she posts of herself as proof. I can’t believe she posts photos of herself with an exact description of what she’s wearing, including brand names like Chatles David boots and of course her Giggly crapola. I don’t understand how all her acolytes can’t see her out of control ego.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a photo of her house. Do you have a link?
Flipped by the Q and HSN earlier this A.M. Didn’t see too much to snark on. Carolyn’s hair and makeup looked good on the Q and her clothes fit fine. I won’t critique her outfit too harshly because she was wearing boots and a scarf that were in the show and maybe also her top was too. Over at HSN, they had an hour of Carol’s Daughter products, and the OAP looked gorgeous. Nice hair, lovely makeup. She was also pleasant to listen to; of course, she was selling her heart out but she has a nice voice and is very well spoken. (The women who do those cosmetic grease-fests and shriek-a-thons over at the Q should take note - but, sadly, they won’t.)
Meh. The least they could do for me on Sunday morning, is provide snark fodder.
Thanks for the info, LadyR! I think I’m going to order one after Christmas. Probably one of the smaller crossbody bags since I don’t like carrying anything larger.
Well, just as I was starting to think Yum Yum had finally turned over a new leaf (not one disgusting orgasmic face while taste testing during the half hour I was watching ITKWD and not even one Happy Dance–!–) he suddenly held up a massive index finger and said the ominous words, “Wait for it! Wait for it!” I must say though that it was a surprisingly short and subdued Happy Dance.
Maybe the new management at QVC gave him a talking to. Next they need to discuss his ‘hair’.
I see where Dyson bought the airtime to be the Q’s TSV again. Yesterday the Canon T5 DSLR Camera was the TSV for the second time in TWO WEEKS! QVC has no integrity anymore.
Well of coyrse you need a vacuum for every room, each in a different color. Then of course you can’tforget the usual gifting suspects. You know you are just itching to trip the trigger on a nice little Dyson for the trashman, the parking lot attendant, and that homeless guy you pass on the way to work. I give you permission to buy several!
That home that LR posted photo of is not hers. That’s just another example of how she lies to her followers. Someone I know has seen her house and told me the one in the photo is definitely not it. Hers is not anywhere near as nice.
Sure takes balls to put a photo of a house on your Facebook page and try and pass it off as your own. But typical for someone like Lisa.
Out of curiousity, I was reading the Q forum this morning (I know, how sick is that?). It’s rather instructive to read all the complaints that even some of the die-hard regulars are expressing regarding overly repetitive products, no sales or other incentives, and no clearance…ever. Sure there are still plenty of people ‘helpfully’ (inject serious sarcasm here) telling them to change the channel, but more are agreeing with them than not.
I really hope the executives are paying attention to this groundswell of misery from some of their most loyal buyers. If not, they may be standing in the same unemployment line as the JC Penny folks that tried that ‘new’ strategy a few years back.
I take a look over there out of morbid curiosity now and then myself. Don’t be ashamed. Or we can be ashamed together. :smack: LOL
ITA, it appears the Q customer natives are getting quite restless wrt the Q’s repetitive programming, limited product offerings and high S/H charges. Will be interesting to see if the Q takes advantage of all the free market research they are getting from their forums. I’m not holding my breath though.
And I took a look over there earlier and found this thread.
Apparently someone posted on Kerstin’s QVC FB page that she should not talk about religion/god so much during her shows. Kerstin replied that the person should not watch her shows, that nobody is forcing her to. :eek: She really* is *a smug skank that needs to get off my TV. SMFH. And not just by me CLICKING her skanky dumb ass off 99% of the time when I see her.
P.S. Apparently the exchange has since been deleted off Kirsten’s FB page. Imagine that.
BT, I saw that one, too. What a snippy little homewrecker she is. I sincerely hope one of her QVC wranglers told her to never do THAT again. She really had the hens on the Forum flapping their wings and clucking. lol
I hope she spouts about her love of god during the next FlexBelt presentation, while showing off her mons vernus.
I’m home today recovering from a sciatic nerve attack this weekend and having been checking out HSN and their clearanced, un-sellable sequin tops. (I did pick up a dress for $15 however-yay!) and that Slinky vendor’s voice is…well… eardrum splitting.
