If I have a hostess book a party off someone else, and the past hostess wants her past booking benefit, does it get shipped to the past hostess? Or can she select direct shipping?

A silly question, I know, but the two live very far away from one another.
 
She would have to choose direct shipping and pay for it. Otherwise, it gets shipped to the host.
 
Yes, that's right.

Depending on what past host chose, telling past host you'll pick up the extra $2-$3 for direct ship might build a lot of goodwill towards you as a consultant.

I'm new & doing PC as a hobbyist - others might have a different take on the situation.

A lot of my hosts' moms are still alive, they don't shop online, and freak out over even the $4 shipping. Working gals such as us, not much of an issue - caatalog & internet shipping for $6.95 and up is the norm.

I'm sure the extra $2 won't be a problem.Previous Product Line charged $6 for direct shipping and that was the only option people had.
