  • I also ordered mine from the poppy shop on the 1st and it still hasn't been delivered :(. I really wanted it for a service at school on Thursday and also Sunday.

    Wondering if its worth ordering another one from QVCUK now just to make sure I get one.

    The poppy shop have told me it would have been sent yesterday but they seem really vague about when and how it will be delivered!

  • Looked at QVC website. They make no mention of any money going to British Legion or for that matter any charity.

    Just rang them and they can't deliver untill 16th, unless you pay an extra 2.95 postage on top of the 2.45, making it 5.40p & p, then theres a 'chance' it could be here for friday, think I will wait till next year to wear mine and put the extra in the poppy box! And you're right, theres no mention of the charity getting any money from them.
  • They will probabley do a different one next year so will wait. Find it a bit naughty that QVC have managed to get stock when British Legion have none left to sell.

    Well I ordered one on 1st November and they have taken the money by the 3rd November but I still havent received it. I know its for a good cause but I do feel its wrong taking peoples money before they even have stock! And an email update wouldnt go amiss either!

    I also ordered one on 1st of November and it arrived this morning :T

    Just ordered the Buckley Poppy. This will be fantastic as each year I buy my poppy and I lose it in 5 mins !!!!
    I will wear it with pride next year and every year. Of course I will still continue to put my couple of quid in the box and won't have to fiddle with all the pins and crumpled flower.

    Snap!! Ordered one for me and one for my daughter as she would love one. Mine gets wrecked on my jacket pocket as I wear my handbag on my left shoulder as well and I like to wear my poppy on the left side!

    Ordered from the Poppy Shop btw, but it would have been perfect to get it by now for the day itself. Looks like they're only going to be despatched in December!
  • I cant find them on QVC can anybody please help :T
