Does anyone know what the policy is? She purchased the med round stone w/ handles, but wants the large one instead. Do I need to return one for a refund and then have her purchase the new one??

TIA!
 
Call HO and give them the info. Let them know you want to do an exchange and they will let you know the difference in price. You can pay the difference by the guests CC or your Debit card.

Thank you, Becky! :)
 
no problem, hope I helped
 
I have a question... a host just received her order. She wanted a square baker and a pie baker. I accidently ordered 2 square bakers and no pie baker. So how do I fix this?? And do I need to pay shipping now? I have never had an order wrong.... TIA!!

If host just received her order, I would think you should just be able to make a product adjustment without having to pay shipping.
 
Ok .. good.. this is the host I gave the 60% special (square baker - cranberry) to because she really wanted it and I didn't have the heart to tell her ..that was not one of the 60% off products. And it was not clear to her on the flier and she really wanted it. So I would hate to spend more on this. I messed up when I flip flopped the order to accomodate her getting the square baker.

That was very nice of you, Ginger. I'm actually doing something like that too for my host yesterday. It's great when we can do something nice for our hosts! :)
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the process for a guest to exchange an item purchased from Pampered Chef?

To exchange an item, the guest should contact their Pampered Chef consultant or the customer service team within 30 days of purchase. They will need to provide details about the item they wish to exchange and the reason for the exchange. The consultant will guide them through the process and provide any necessary instructions.

Are there any items that cannot be exchanged?

Yes, certain items may not be eligible for exchange, such as personalized products, clearance items, or items that have been used or damaged. It's best to check with the consultant or refer to the Pampered Chef return policy for specific details on which items can be exchanged.

Does the guest need to pay for shipping when exchanging an item?

Typically, the guest is responsible for the shipping costs associated with returning the item for exchange. However, if the exchange is due to a mistake made by Pampered Chef (such as sending the wrong item), the company may cover the shipping costs. It's advisable to confirm this with the consultant.

How long does it take to process an exchange?

The processing time for an exchange can vary, but once the returned item is received, it usually takes 5-7 business days for the new item to be shipped out. Guests should keep in touch with their consultant for updates on the status of their exchange.

Can a guest exchange an item purchased at a party?
