I Got This Email Earlier From Ho About Stop Sell

When you say discoloring - what do you mean? Some hosts have reported that their metal sheet pans are discoloring prematurely or unevenly.

Dear Consultant,

Last week, we told you about a manufacturing issue that is causing some
of the metal sheet pans to discolor prematurely or unevenly. On April
2, we will be mailing a letter to those hosts who either purchased a
metal sheet pan or had a guest at their Show purchase a metal sheet pan.
The letter will explain that some of the sheet pans may prematurely or
unevenly discolor. It will further explain that while the performance
and safety of the pans are not affected, the pans are not reflective of
the high quality that you and your customers have come to expect from
The Pampered Chef.

We are asking the hosts to contact their guests and provide them with a
toll-free number and an e-mail address so that their guests can let us
know whether they would prefer a refund or replacement pan. We are
including a list of those guests who purchased the metal sheet pans to
help each host share this information. To thank them for their help and
apologize for the inconvenience this will cause them, we are sending the
affected hosts the Bamboo Tongs (item #2046). I am attaching a copy of
the letter we are sending to hosts for your convenience.

I know many of you may want to contact the hosts and guests directly as
part of your customer care. To access a list of hosts and guests who
purchased the metal sheet pans, please follow these instructions:

P3 Users:

To print the Order History Report, select ‘Reports’ from the menu
bar then select ‘Order History’. On the right hand side of the
Order History report screen, select ‘Item’, enter the metal sheet pan
item #s (1721, 1722) in the ‘or specific items (separated by
commas)’ field then select ‘Finish’ to print the report.


PamperedPartner Users:

To print the Items Sold History Report select ‘Print’ from the menu
bar and then select ‘Generate PamperedPartner Reports’ and next
double-click on ‘Total Items Sold History’ from the report list. At
the Total Items Sold History Report screen, enter the metal sheet pan
item #s (1721, 1722), then select ‘OK’ to print the report.

Sincerely,
Marla Gottschalk
Chief Executive Officer

Does it seem weird that they are emailing the hosts? I just know that some hosts don't want to be bothered. I have only sold two so I've taken care of my customers!
 
I thought it said they would be mailing the host a letter??
 
It does say that they will be mailing the hosts.

Oops, I meant mailing. It was pretty late last night.
 
I haven't sold any yet so thankfully, one less thing for me to have to keep up with.
 
I know this is probably a stupid question...or has been answered & my cold medicine drugged brain can't find it...but they will be replacing our sheet pans as well, right? My large one is fine, but my medium one is discoloring. :(

They said they would, they better, both of mine are discoloring.

Um...so....TPC drills customer care into us...then expects the hosts to do the dirty work of spreading the word about the sheet pans! I am sending snail mail to my sheet pan customers with the info, and just e-mailed the affected hosts to let them know the I, the CONSULTANT am attending to this. I think that's the way it should be.

BTW I sold 10 pans at 3 shows by just having samples out....hope the new and improved ones are available soon!

When you say discoloring - what do you mean? Mine have never looked as good as they did before they were used, no matter how I've cleaned them....but I didn't think of it as a defect - I just figured that's what metal pans did.....so are your's turning a funky color, or just dull and used looking, or what???

I just got an email tonight about this from PC, but I hadn't sold any yet. Now I'm about to close my 1st Open House and one of the guests has ordered the large sheet pan. Should I just tell her about the discoloration issue, or tell her we can't sell it or what? Any ideas?

For mine it's black spots (not very big but quite a few of them) that no matter how hard I scrub, even with the Stainless cleaner, won't come off.:grumpy: I still cook with it but I don't show it.
