Home Shopping Network (HSN)

I purchased the URBAN REBOUNDER from HSN. The order was received and delivered as promised and the exercise equipment was the best purchase of my life - I've lost 30 pounds! Now that I'm fanatic about this exercise program though I realize that with a little further searching (the Urban Rebounding Website, Amazon.com, etc.) you can usually find similar to better deals out there.

Get this off my DISH network and give me something I might actually watch. If I want to buy something I can go to a store where I can get better quality at a cheaper price.

never anything interesting to buy on there.BORING

I bought Urban Rebounder Platinum Collection Workout 4 DVD Set for $69.95. 2 of the 4 DVDs were not new, they had scratches and smudge marks all over the backs. My guess is this was a return and they put new shrink wrap on it (maybe they tested it) but still, this should not be sold as new or for full price. I hate when stores put used, returned things back up for sale for the same price. I paid for a new item! I have yet to see HSN post my review on their site, we'll see. I have purchased other things there that were as advertised. But the above practice really makes me mad.

There is something about the stage sets and the hosts and most of the items they sell that just scream "cheap" to me for some reason, I rarely watch, indeed, can't seem to find the station on my Direct TV unless I search hard for it, which is fine since I almost never buy from TV anyway.

They do help so many people who live in areas where there are no shopping malls. Sometimes they have excellent bargains.

I suppose it has some usefulness. Try to avoid the junk if you can.

It's hard to believe there is a continuious audience for this. They must be making money but I believe there is some huge pit in middle America where all this junk goes.

Does anyone really want to watch people trying to sell stuff?

So awful. They sell a lot of schlock I wouldn't want to buy, much less spend my time hearing about and watching.

I really rely on this channel for my Christmas shopping. It's an excellent way to view your seasonal gift choices.

The bargains available here are unbelievable! Also it can provide entertainment when there is nothing else on. I don't know how those salespeople are able to keep up their enthusiasm, but they do, and they have continued to do so for about 10 years now. Good for them!

A fun channel to watch.

Serves a purprose

This is a wonderful channel for shut ins, the disabled and others who hate fighting the crowds at the mall. With the price of gas these days this channel provides a valuable service. There is such a wide array of products you never know what you're going to find next. If variety is the spice of life, this is a spice dispenser...though EE is much spicier.

I think this a great network. They offer a variety of items with decent prices. Just think instead of getting mauled at the malls this Christmas you can do all your shopping from your home while you bake all those wonderful Christmas treats! YUMMY!

I like HSN I don't get QVC, I think the hosts are entertaining, I have been pleased with everything I ordered, no complaints here!

I've just breezed through this network while channel surfing and I couldn't believe the crap they were hawking on this outlet. Totally useless junk that they would like you to believe other people are actually buying. Those pinheads out in the American heartland must be living totally vacant and miserable lives if (1) they watch this nonsense, and (2) they make purchases of the featured guvna. Fools and their money are soon parted. One hears so much that broadcast time is so valuable and channel frequency is precious, yet at the same time this moronic drivel is helping to clog up TV World. It's heartening that the cable stations, which actually belong to the people and should be used in the public interest, are being employed to sell porcelain Sad Clowns. Maybe it would be a good idea to replace HSN with a channel that at least attempted to broadcast something moderately useful and let the dolts buy their useless crap out at the useless shopping mall.

Back in the old days(1990), I remember watching this show (formerly Home Shopping Club) every weekend. I remember when they would honk "Tootie" when the auction ended or the price got lower. I remember when all the host did was sit behind a background with the show's name(like "Dolls Dolls Dolls") and other people would show off the item with the wave of a hand. But now I wouldn't dream of spending the whole weekend watching HSN. Mostly because I have a life now and also because you just can't relive the old days, especially if the format has changed from what you fondly remember.

So incredibly boring, you are tempted to buy something in the hopes that they will shuttup. Maybe that's their strategy!

HSN has improved a lot and they often have decent items for sale at good prices. Of course Adrienne Arpel has had a facelift (hasn't everyone on TV?) but that doesn't mean she can't help others look good with her makeup and items. Some of the hosts are very good and some are inexperienced. Lots of people, especially older ones, don't use the internet and don't go out much so they can benefit from this network.

There is really no need for these channels anymore! People either go out to shop, or shop online. We don't need these channels anymore!! Try amazon.com!!

Forget this channel, just go to the mall.

Hey, remember "Tootie?" Way back when they were the only game in town in home shopping clubs, they used use "Tootie." I didn't really watch very often, so don't remember what that was for. Then QVC came on the scene, and HSN dropped old "Tootie, changed their sets, got better looking hosts, prettier models, etc. They were an out and out rip-off of QVC, when QVC was really good. Now, QVC, is just as lousy as HSN, and lost their best hostess, Kathy Levine, to HSN, but I've yet to see her on the show. Maybe I just don't watch that often to catch. This show "sucks!!"

I would avoid HSN at all costs! The products that they endorce are cheap! Plus they have terrible customer service. IF you try to have a diplomatic conversation about a product that you have having problems with then they become very offensive! AVOID THESE PEOPLE!

Worse than QVC...the hosts are so obnoxious...they try and use guilt as a means to sell their products...but when you can sit there and say with a straight face that Suzanne Sommer's junk jewelry is high quality, that is sad...and who is that Adrianne Arpel woman...when I surf she is on there constantly hawking some crazy make-up...does anyone actually believe that she HASN'T had plastic surgery?? Come on folks...time for a reality check!

A real rip-off of QVC. They are always selling jewerly for really high prices, and the hosts are very strange, and not beautiful like the ones that are on QVC.
