Shop!Newest Review: ... addition purchasing from them is not the no risk proposition offered by some other shopping channels. I do not believe that I shall be purchasing any further items from this channel, however I may well watch it again, as I said it is easy to watch, and look for products I like the look of elsewhere. To errors and a poor product all from one purchase is not a good first impression. Did I mention that we did not receive an apology for being overcharged just an assurance they would put it right? ... more More other TV channels

As a regular user of QVC I found that shop appeared to be much more up beat and far easier to watch. The larger (apparent) variety of products was also a big plus. So much for looks ? I recently purchased an item as part of the channels ?Killer Deal? section and this was where my opinion of the channel takes a bit of a dive. The first problem was when we rang we were quoted the full price rather than the deal price (which was still on screen at the time). After a short ?ish? bit of ?looking into it? we were advised that they had made an error and we would be invoiced the ?killer deal? price. Result, however on receiving the bill we had been invoiced the full ... Read the complete review

Okay right off the bat I'm going to say that I have never bought anything from this channel and never intend to so I can't offer any opinion on their level of service. But what i can do is offer my opinion on the channel in general. Shop can be found on Channel 19 on the ITV Digital network. Throughout the day you can tune into presenters trying to sell you wonderful goods. Now unintentionally this channel is one of the funniest things on the whole of digital TV. The ways products are sold is completely simple, the sale pitches are scripted to cater for the complete idiots amongst us. For instance you have a video recorder for sale. SALESMAN- ...

Shop! Available 24 hours per day on ondigital,satellite and cable. What is it? Well it is a television shopping channel backed by littlewoods selling all the things that you would find in a Littlewoods Catalogue. The quality of the shows....Well considering that most of them are recorded and repeated, not that brilliant. The format...Is very similar to QVC having one or two hour themed shows such as Jewellery Shop,Kitchen Shop,Collectors Shop,Home Shop and so on. The main difference being that they generally have two presenters on each show. The presenters...they have recruited a few minor ex. QVC presenters Simon Brown,Greg Something ...

It's the truth. Honest. No matter what is getting sold on this home shopping channel, the presenter thinks it is the best thing ever and they are away to buy one straight away. Well enough of my honesty, I will get down to describing the channel. This is a home shopping channel which is on Sky Digital channel 634. Products are advertised, the presenters tell you all about what it does and you see the things working, the price and why you should own it. So if you wanted something then you either go to the website to order - www.shop-tv.co.uk or phone the freephone number 0800 77 55 33, and pay by debit/credit card. Two other payment options are spread the ... Read the complete review

Get out your credit card and switch on the TV. You are now all set for a little retail therapy. Shop! divides your shopping day, (and night),into various categories. There's jewellery, computers, entertainment (TV, video, DVD, etc), and various other sections. If you are interested in the item being demonstrated you may continue watching to see if its worth the price asked, but if you are not it gets really boring. The presenters spend so much time on each item that it gets quite tedious. I have actually gone to make a cup of coffee on a few ocassions and come back to see the same thing being demonstrated. This channel is not as slick as ... Read the complete review
