I submitted a show last night and put in the Large Stone with Handles for a past host. I realized this morning that it's been longer than six months from the original booking. Policy says the show has to be held within six month... P3 took it and I'm wondering if I should be prepared for a call from HO. On CC it says that the show is already picking.

Any input?
 
I would guess they won't pick that up. How far over the 6 months has it been?
 
I use Pampered Partner still ( I know I need to change) and I have had shows where I forgot to put in the past host discount # and they don't check or stop it.

The original show was in FEB! It doesn't seem like it's been that long. So far no call so we'll see! ;)
 
To my surprise, I've had some orders like this as well and I've heard nothing from HO. I did basically the same thing, but I think my time frame was 7 months (or almost) and nothing happened. I guess we'll keep our fingers crossed! LOL
