Hi--I have a catalog show going on through my website and one of the guests accidently placed her order as an individual order rather than part of my host's show...can I fix this?? I'd hate for my host to miss out on the $90 order! :(
 
Call HO now!Call them and explain what happened. If you catch it before they start picking, it should be no big deal.

Good luck!

Great! Thanks!!
 
Unfortunately I've called right away when this has happened and it's been too late for them to do anything. If it's too late, the only way to remedy this is to have the host do a return and get a refund for those items (obviously PC will pay to ship it back since it would be within 30 days), then have her still do the order on the show if she's willing to deal with that.

Hopefully you'll catch it though.
 
I would call HO ASAP because now that the holidays are coming HO ships REALLY FAST!!!
 
Ditto what Michelle said. Fortunately when that happened to me there was a prob w/the CC so they called me. Would have had no clue otherwise!!
