Abstract: In many cases one may encounter an integral which is of $q$-Mellin--Barnes type. These integrals are easily evaluated using theorems which have a long history dating back to Slater, Askey, Gasper, Rahman and others. We derive some interesting $q$-Mellin--Barnes integrals and using them we derive transformation and summation formulas for nonterminating basic hypergeometric functions. The cases which we treat include ratios of theta functions, the Askey--Wilson moments, nonterminating well-poised ${}_{3}ph{i}_2$, nonterminating very-well-poised ${}_5{W}_4$, ${}_8{W}_7$, products of two nonterminating ${}_{2}ph{i}_1$'s, square of a nonterminating well-poised ${}_{2}ph{i}_1$, and nonterminating ${}_{12}{W}_{11}$ and ${}_{10}{W}_9$.
