I don't particularly like QVC or ShopNBC because their merchandise is
mostly low-class stuff like NeverSharp knives, George Foreman Grills,
Cubic Zirconia rings, etc. They rely on high-sizzle merchandising
including overstated MSRP's that are cut by absurd discounts. Not
much has really changed in that industry from when Ron Popeil was
first marketing Veg-O-Matics.

However, a lot of people buy stuff from venues like that so think of
it as just another successful distribution channel like Overstock.Com,
Amazon.Com, etc.


I suspect the allure for Tardo is the prospect of getting his
colloidal silver and Amazing HGH some airtime on QVC.
