                                    SCHEDULE 13D
                                 (Amendment No. 13)
         
                                    Statement Of
         
                                    BARRY DILLER
         
                          Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the
                          Securities Exchange Act of 1934
         
                                   in respect of
         
                                     QVC, INC.
         
         
                   This Report on Schedule 13D relates to the common stock, 
         par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of QVC, Inc. (for-
         merly, "QVC Network, Inc."), a Delaware corporation (the "Com-
         pany").  The Report on Schedule 13D filed by Barry Diller (the 
         "Reporting Person"), as most recently amended by Amendment No. 12 
         thereto, dated as of August 5, 1994 (as amended, the "Schedule 
         13D"), is hereby amended and supplemented as set forth below.  The 
         Reporting Person filed the initial Report and Amendment Nos. 1 
         through 10 of the Schedule 13D as a member of a Reporting Group 
         with Comcast Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation ("Comcast"), 
         and Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Liberty").  
         Mr. Diller, who may be deemed to be part of a "group" with Comcast 
         within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act 
         (the "Exchange Act"), filed Amendment Nos. 11 and 12 separately 
         and not as part of a joint filing with Comcast.  Comcast, Liberty 
         and the Company have entered into a merger agreement (the "Merger 
         Agreement") pursuant to which Comcast and Liberty have agreed to 
         acquire the Company.  Mr. Diller is not participating with Comcast 
         and Liberty in such transactions (except as previously disclosed).  
         All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the 
         meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

         Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships 
                   With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
         
                   Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented and 
         amended to include the following information:
         
                   On August 15, 1994, the options to purchase Common Stock 
         granted by the Company to each of Cox, Advance and BellSouth 
         expired without exercise thereof by any of Cox, Advance or 
         BellSouth.  As a result of the expiration without exercise of the 
         foregoing options, the terms of the Stock Option Agreement, 
         including, without limitation, BellSouth's agreement to become a 
         party to the Stockholders Agreement in the event that it purchased 
         Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Option Agreement, became void 
         and of no effect, except as otherwise provided in the Stock Option 
         Agreement.
