Last night, I submitted an $1,100 show. It has already shipped out. Wow..PC must have given those warehouse employees tons of coffee this morning. :D
 
They have been moving super fast lately with their shipping. It's on the many things that I love about PC!!
 
I know! I submitted one at 10:30am. Got an email by 2:30pm that it was shipped! FedEx showed it that night. I get it tomorrow.

Partylite is the WORST. Every time I have ordered, it's taken a MINIMUM of 3 weeks to get my stuff. I am in AZ and they have 2 warehouses, one in Cali and the other in AZ. Amazing how slow they are.

Even for a replacement product took about a month to get to me. Turned me off to the company big time.
 
I did a show and they held my order for three weeks before they even decided to ship it. Then I had angry guest becasue they thought the consultant was stealing money!!! It was a mess... NEVER AGAIN!

Yep -- never again here too. It's a shame cuz I do actually like a FEW items they carry. I think I'll just buy stock off hand when I see them at trade shows and what not.
 
Yeah it was a horrible experince to go through, and the consutlant wanted me to sign up to sell it!! UH NO!!!

Oh great, thanks for the heads up. Went to a party Dec 15, consultant just charged my card yesterday so now I guess I have to wait even longer to get my stuff!
 
That's really sad!! She should have at least told you that she was waiting a while to turn in a show!!! The other thing that I love about PC is direct shipping!!!! Other direct sales companies do not offer that!!! Partylite would be one of them!

Ya know, I seriously think w/ Partylite it's not the consultant's holding off on the shows. I think it's their Home Office that drags the ball...which is a shame. I can't speak for all consultant's but I know mine (who is actually a host of mine as well...and a pretty good friend) submitted my show and my card took a few weeks to be charged as well. UGH!!!!
 
I haven't had very good experinces with them on that front so I told my consutlant that I can't host shows like that anymore. There were things that I wanted for Christmas and got after Christmas.
 
I hope they're being that quick with the New Consultant Kits. Just added a great woman to my team. :)
 
Got my kit shipped from IL to PA in 7 days.

I have found (the past few months) that my new team members are getting their kits in 5 days from submitting the agreements. I am in AZ.
Super fast!!!!!!
 
Yeah the new consutlant kits are SUPER FAST!!!
 
Party I closed on the 5th was shipped on the 6th.. I was shocked..
 
They might be fast but make sure you are checking for accuracy! My show that was submitted on 12/31 was missing THREE items! Sheesh. Small items but still, now I have 3 customers waiting for products.
 
Super. I'm only a day's shipping from the HO, but my newest team member is in TX. I wasn't sure how long it would take for her to get her kit.
 
Shipping will be fast this month because it's a slow month for PC. Next month being double incentives, shipping will slow a little. Everyone is holding their best shows for February.

Not me. I submit my shows in the month they are held. It's actually against PC's policy to hold shows over and submit them as a different month. Plus, that would really suck for your January hosts who earned 50% more free product.
 
I submitted a show on the 27th. It still shows as picked status. I closed one on the 29th and it still shows received.

If it's dated January and submitted in early February the host would still get the benefits but the consultant would not get credit for any February incentive anyway (it would count for commission and being active only as the incentive rules is held and submitted).

I submit mine when held too.

Actually most of the months and most of the time shipping is pretty fast. I can get orders within 2-5 days of submitting. What slows HO down is the end of the month because a lot of consultants submit theirs show the last week of the month and most of those are submitted the last two days of the month. Some cannot help it but it doesn't help HO at all.

I personally do not hold shows over to the next month. I encourage all hosts no matter what day the show is at the end of the month that we have to close by the end of the month.

If you look at the top of the shipping page it will tell you what day they are currently working on.
