Heartbroken: DCB on BO - The Reality We Feared

[chefsteph07]

:cry:
Just got an email that the DCB is on BO...I knew it would happen...

I'm bummed too. Now the question is, do I contact a person who ordered one before I submit the show in case she doesn't want to wait? Or do I just tell the host about it, or the guest about it after it's submitted? I don't think the guest was in any special hurry to have it for a certain date. But I'm not sure what to do/say.

 

[chefsteph07]

I'm not saying anything, and I'm still promoting it at my shows this weekend.
I just called and left messages for those shows that are affected by it. Hopefully it will be resolved soon and they won't go on stop sell or something, that would be HORRIBLE.

isn't it just the cranberry one?

 

[Kelly8]

Yes, it is just the cranberry. And it is scheduled to ship by the 11th.

isn't it just the cranberry one?

Yes, it's just the cranberry one and it says the est. ship date is 3/11, so it's not that far off...

 

[ChefPaulaB]

Wow, we both posted almost the exact same thing at the exact same time! Jinx!

Yeah. THe 11th isn't that far. Most people expect shipping to be at least 2-3 weeks anyway (except past customers who know that PC is pretty quick- USUALLY). At most, if the rest of the order ships- you may want to mention it to the Host that the DCB may ship separately shortly after the rest of the orders...in case they get it and it seems like it's missing. They may not notice the packing slip showing it as "BO".

I am SERIOUSLY bummed!! I have a show with 5 of them ordered!!! They REALLY need them for an event next weekend. UGH! If they don't ship until 3/11 they most likely will NOT have them. Plus, they wanted to use them this week to practice.

Off to use the phone!
