I am a US consultant but was approached by a friend in Canada asking to do a party. Am I able to do this? Can they order on my website?
 
The way I understand it, the show orders from a US consultant must be sent to a US address (including bases in other countries). So, unless your Canadian friend is right across the border from someone who would be willing to receive the order, I don't think it is possible. There might also be a problem with using credit cards. I don't know if there are different credit cards in Canada or if there is any way to tell where the card is located.HTH
 
I called HO and asked about this and was told that I could not do shows nor could I ship product to Canada.
 
Where is your friend?Where does your friend live? I'm an Ontario consultant and could help out if she still wants a show...
 
If my friends in toronto/thornhill show any interest in doing this for more than a "favor" to me I'll ask around here for a consultant to take care of them I promise.

On a separate note - one of my canadian friends had the usual complaint that "pampered chef" is too expensive, do you have a catalog from last season that you'd be willing to ship me, slow boat to china method, if I sent you a paypal for the postage?
 
Tasha, I will ship you one, don't worry about postage.

Consider it a thanks for all the hard work you do on this board. PM your address.

Thanks
