With all the posts about broken dcb's. there was a lid for sale on ebay and I bid/won it. If anyone needs a cranberry dcb lid, let me know. I'll sell it for what I got it for. 1.25 + 8.85 sh = 10.10

I was missing an item from my last order. but I'm a nut already.
 
No missing items recently here ... but I did have a host who got her box REALLY late. The packing slip and the items in the box matched what she ordered but the custom's form was CRAZY and had a bunch of extra items that were not ordered or included. She was upset about that for some reason.
 
I have had to do an adjustment twice for a DCB also. The first one had a chipped lid and when the replacement arrived the whole top of the baker was scratched. I just received my label today to send the second one back but I haven't received the 2nd replacement baker yet and today is 30 days since the show was submitted. I hope the new baker arrives in good condition. Both of these issues have to be caused by the packer at the manufacturer.

Sale of the lid is pending at this moment...
 
You got a great deal on it...I'm surprised, usually things on ebay go for a lot. It is always sad when the shipping is more than the item...lol
 
Stoneware is so heavy!! I once mailed a rectangular baker and it cost me $14.00 in shipping, and that was probably 10 years ago! Now I direct ship any stoneware!!

I shouldn't say this, but most of my stoneware I got at thrift stores or goodwill. I have alot of pieces to show! I won't tell customers that.

My family has been finding it at Garage Sales and buying them and most of the time giving them to me, occasionally they will find a piece for themselves.

I totally understand! For a while there (a few months) it seemed to be the same for me last year. I felt like I was going to get a call from HO asking if I was trying to scam the company. Each time I called I literally broke out in hives. I hated that. Then all the sudden everything went well. Oh- that was after I got a package that had a "this box has been.." flyer in it and it was STILL missing an item. I really hated calling on that one!

It will get better and your customers know you are going the extra mile for them and our company backs us up!
