The other day I demod the pineapple corer at my weight watchers meeting and gave everyone a small cup of the juicy fruit. I did admit to having a alterior motive.......needing to send in a show so the 'pampered police' would not be after me. Anyway a number of people want to order the corer and I would like to put it on one order since I am paying the shipping. I will be keeping a list of everyone that ordered so if any problems arise w/the product I can take care of it. How many of the same product can be ordered on one order form?
 
this is interesting...i had no idea there was a limit!?!?!?!

maybe there isn't, but i would like to know before I place the order...hoping someone can help
 
I do not think there would there be a limit. Who is to say you are not ordering them as gifts? I ordered 15 of the same item to do just that, and there was no problem.
Hope this helps.

And congrats on the multiple orders! Hmmm, what else can you demo at a meeting? :)
 
There is a limit but I think it is high like 50. You can get HO approval for it anyway.
 
I did a test entry on a current show. It popped up an error message that an item was ordered with a quantity of more than 50.I went & found this in the Policy Guide (pg 9):
Large Quantity OrdersSome customers may want to purchase a large quantity (more than 50) of a single item For example, a customer may want to purchase Pampered Chef ® products for commercial use in a restaurant or institution or as client gifts. If you encounter such an opportunity, contact the Solution Center for guidelines.

thanks to everyone that responded!
 
Ha Ha! You bumping this thread reminded me to go take that order for 99 pineapple wedgers off that show! LOL
 
Something for you to think about. If you are having the entire order shipped to you,
you could recover your own out-of-pocket shipping charges by putting at least $60 on several orders, and get a variety of the Cookbooks for your collection. Use the names of some of those who have placed orders, but you get the bonus. You can hand write the receipts for them on your three part forms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "Limit to # of Products Ordered" mean in Pampered Chef?

"Limit to # of Products Ordered" refers to the maximum number of specific products that a customer can purchase during a promotional period or sale. This is often implemented to ensure fair access to popular items and to manage inventory effectively.

Why are there limits on the number of products I can order?

Limits are set to prevent stock shortages and to ensure that all customers have a fair chance to purchase popular items. This helps maintain a balanced inventory and allows more customers to benefit from promotions.

How can I find out if a product has a limit on orders?

Product limits are usually indicated on the Pampered Chef website or during the ordering process. Look for any notes or alerts next to the product listing that specify if there is a limit on the quantity you can order.

Can I place multiple orders to bypass the product limit?
